    If this man isn't in your top 5 your opinion is irrelevant and inaccurate

    I don't think Lowry belongs in this conversation nowdays.
    His Offensive toll really saw him loosen up on defense imo.

    And about Wall
    Very capable when he wants to be, but I see him gamble for steals way too often. Also he sometimes seems to be chasing blocks, leaving his man open with excessive help defense.

    But yeah he's solid other than that.

    Also Rubio's fantastic, I think he should be considered for Top 5.

    Not saying those are not good defenders, but lets take Beverley. Why do you think he better then Rubio. I think Rubio is getting way downplayed because he never on TV and he white so people think he averge. Rubio might be the best PG defender in the league.

    Has nothing to do with white or underrated. From like 2006 - 2010 one of the best on ball defenders who was never adequately praised was Kirk Hinrich. Who I loved to watch. Beverely just clearly applies more pressure and visibly frustrates even star players. Rubio can't do that man.

    John wall is a much better than Iverson was. If you think all he does is gamble in the passing lanes then you clearly don't watch the Wizards play. His main problem right now is staying focused, but he's a very physically imposing defensive player when he wants to be.
