Your 2011 NBA All-Defensive Teams

The NBA announced earlier today the All-Defensive first and second teams. Leading the pack is defensive player of the year himself Dwight Howard. Joining Howard are Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett, who both tied MJ and Gary Payton for the most All-Defensive First Team for their ninth time. Rajon Rondo and LeBron James round up the First Team.

The second team consisted of  Joakin Noah of Chicago, Tyson Chandler of Dallas, Chris Paul of New Orleans, Andre Iguodala of Philly, and Tony Allen of Memphis.

I think Kobe shouldn't be in the first team. Dwyane Wade is a much defender than him at this point overall and I would swap Chris Paul to Rondo's spot.

In the second team. I don't think Noah deserves in there. Serge Ibaka would have been a much deserving player, remember he leads the league in block shots at 4 plus blocked shots a game.  Though I admire Tony Allen's defense I don't think it qualifies him of a spot in the second team.

AWARD WATCH: All-NBA Teams

We are nearing the end of the regular season, I think we should try to pick our All-NBA teams. I know there is about 10 games or more left but what the heck I'm giving out my teams. I don't know how this PER rating is but it looks as though I can based my teams  on this.

                                    1st Team                               2nd Team

PG                              Derrick Rose                             Chris Paul
SG                             Dwyane Wade                           Kobe Bryant
SF                             LeBron James                           Kevin Durant
PF                             Kevin Love                             Amar'e Stoudemire
C                               Dwight Howard                        Tim Duncan

You know what, since I'm feeling generous, I'll thrown in my All-Defense Team as well:

                                     1st Team                               

PG                              Chris Paul

SG                             Dwyane Wade
