Josh Smith Snubbed For All-Defensive teams?
Posted by: Micah Hart on May 2, 2007 at 3:16PM EST

He wuz robbed, says I. I'm not saying Josh should have been a first-teamer, but I definitely think someone who finished second in the league in blocked shots would garner more recognition for his efforts than he received.

Hoping to get some clarification on the subject, we reached out to 82games.com, a great basketball website that does some pretty incredible statistical analysis of the game behind this game we call NBA Basketball.

I posted on our front page the Q & A we did with them - you should check it out. From what I read of their responses, it sounds like Josh is well on his way to becoming a dominant player on the defensive end of the court and perhaps a future fixture on the all-league defensive squads.

Check it out!
