Very disappointing I couldn't get ben wallace.


He should be a first ballet hall of famer but he won't be. He was the best player on the pistons championship team but no one will remember it that way.


I think he's one of the best payer of his generation and a top 5 greatest defensive player and I think you a good example of how underappreaciated Bill Russel would be if he played in the modern ear.

He was my next pick once Mutombo was off the board :frown:
 
Joe Dumars is another player who the metrics are not fond of. Meh box score stats, meh regression numbers.

on the other hand Joe Dumars would probably more effective in this era becasue he would have taken way way way more 3's.


Evidence for his defensive reputation is all anecdotal doesn't show up in the numbers (not saying it doesn't exist).


If I had to guess I think Joe Dumars are getting a little too much defensive credit, when in reality it should be going mostly to Lambeer, Rodman, Isiah and Salley.

He attempted a lot more 3s later in his career and converted at a pretty high clip. I like the Dumars pick, although i think there were better 2 guard options available. But it's all about fit also. Dumars was a championship high level role player. Can't say that about most of the other guys available.
 
Ben Wallace is one of those that it doesn't matter how bad his offense was.. His defense was that great it didn't matter.

Easily one of the greatest defenders of all time. I love Ben Wallace.
