Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2789579, member: 1414"] My assertion was that many of these lists are not straight up the best pure defenders, and instead the best defenders who were also great players overall. Jordan, Leonard, Pippen etc. So I said that [U]if[/U] you were making a list of great UConn defenders who were [U]also[/U] great overall players, Moore and DePriest would not make the cut (Ricky is closer to making it). Guys like Donyell, Emeka, Burrell were great defenders and much more than that. As noted, Kemba, Shabazz, Boat and Chris Smith were well above average defenders. [/QUOTE]
