Notes from the HoopGeek:A few comments. Glen Davis’ defense was absolutely horrible. Like Michael Redd 2004 defense. Paul Pierce, Kendrick Perkins, Rajon Rondo and Kevin Garnett all deserved places on the defensive teams. That Pierce still put up a 145 TEN+ while seeing double teams and not benefiting from the good floor spacing from teammates is beyond astonishing. Ray’s defense has regressed to his early Seattle days. It is obfuscated by being paired with Garnett, Perkins, Pierce, Rondo, Scalabrine and, believe it or not, Powe.
