Noooooooooooo way Avery deserves it.
yup, he is a great on the ball defender, but his lack of size and strenght limits him in contact, and geting over screens, beautifully displayed against JJ Redick, Afflalo etc. In other words, he is only effective against PGs, rarely against SGs.
Smart is an absolute peach on D. Running through screens, getting steals, traffic rebounds, and it seams that every game he literally steals 4-5 possessions away.
About Crowder, he is good, but no where near Lebron level right now. At times i was very frustrated with him for not taking one for the team in terms of committing a foul around the basket to prevent an easy layup, even tho he is not in foul foul trouble.
