Lindsey Hunter, even though he didn't play that much in the regular season.

Rondo or Paul. Delonte West has been impressive for Cleveland this year too.

Did you watch Kidd trying to guard Paul, it was a nightmare on elmstreet.
Then again you did say used too, makes a bigg difference.

Harris=Flopper

Mo Williams is the epitome of defense.

Where do people get the idea that Paul is any sort of good defender. He's a ball hawk in the passing lanes, but thats it. He's matador everywhere else.

You know who is a great defender who is just now starting to make a name for himself. Ronnie Price, that guy is a pest on the ball, has super quick hands and is an outstanding leaper.

Watch him in the playoffs this year, his perimeter D is solid as a rock.

I haven't seen that many Pistons games this season, but Billups used to lead this category by a country mile. Has he slipped that badly?

I have always been very impressed by Devin Harris, he gets my vote. Lightning quick, good defensive fundamentals, good size and length, he is a tough matchup for any PG in the league. Pure size + strength + fundamentals guys like Chauncey are great against certain PGs, but have trouble staying in front of the Tony Parkers of the league. Small, speedy PGs are a pain in the ass, but they can be posted up by big physical PGs, or just shot over. To me Devin Harris can defend pretty much any PG very, very well. Harris + two 1st for Kidd was highway robbery.

Billups, Kirk Hinrich, Rondo, Kidd, Devin Harris, West, Paul
