Interesting to see Dwight and Bynum ahead of Duncan
Also interesting to see Duncan place 7th in defense. That’s dubious to me.

The defensive stats are totally based on opponent PER …. so someone like Bruce Bowen who defends the best player each night out is shown up as a below average defender because his opponent is great and still produces a good amount despite Bowen’s brilliance.
Obviously there’s flaws there. Also it tends to overvalue players who play on good defensive teams and beat up on players who play on poor defensive squads ….. but still some interesting results.
