CP3 as a good defender LOLZ; steals don't mean you are a good defender.

Paul gets lit by virtually every pg he faces, he is NOT a good on-ball defender but much like john stockton he is an elite off ball passing lanes theif

there is a difference and the two are nowhere near the same thing; Kyle Lowry, now THERE is a good perimeter defender

Agreed on Paul. You could categorize a lot of guys into that category of overrated on ball defenders because they get steals. IMO it's like cornerbacks in the NFL. Take D Hall for example. He's horrid at coverage but he gets INT's so he gets Pro Bowls etc. (DUMB).

He has 83 on ball D. He isn't that great on ball to be second perimeter defender, but sum of those ratings make him that.

Re: Top 12 in '12 -- Best Perimeter Defenders

These ratings only tell part of the story. Playing against the heat I would say Wade is underated. There are hidden ratings that apply to different teams and he is one of the only guards I consistently see blocking shots on the perimeter or in the paint. Steals are usually a good indicator of active hands and the ability to play passing lanes combined with high awareness. My top pick would be Tony Allen dude is just versatile on the defensive end.

Wesley Matthews is a damn good on ball defender

Gerald Wallace is a good on ball defender, he's also fantastic at playing the passing lanes and an underrated shot blocker.

Nicolas Batum is very similar to Gerald Wallace defensively, both are very good at trailing someone on a break and blocking shots.

Too Bad I have to edit my rosters to give Luol Deng his due on defense in this game. He's probably the the 2nd best perimeter SF defenders in the game after LeBron. He's better than Ronnie at defense. trust me I see the games....
