Shane finished fifth this season in Defensive Player of the year voting up their with Camby and Duncan who all have A+ defense. Shane is a premiere defender and one of the best in the league he can defend the post or out on the wings.

By this argument, then Bowen should be bumped up from an A- to an A defensively as well at least, if not A+, as he finished 2nd to Camby and just in front of Duncan. Shawn Marion also has an A+ defense, and Bowen beat him out as well.

FROM:
129 Bruce Bowen SF 35 6'7'' 185 C B C- A- D+ C

TO: A+ Defense, since he beat out Duncan and Marion who each have A+ defense and is just behind Camby.

He's fine too, because of previous reasons.

bierdins with better steal and block per 36 min than samuel d but with lower def rating
would love to have A- def for bierdins

also bierdins is 11.5 reb per 36 min so his reb should be A- as well .

is this gripe approved or not?

When I did the gripe, the trade wasn't done because of Warrior's lack of acceptance, so I never did it yet.

But no, Biedrins is fine.

Advanced stats mean more to me than BPG and SPG. Players can get lots of BPG or SPG, and still be terrible defenders.
