Durant should have definitely made it. Bradley and Crowder shouldn't be anywhere near an all defensive team.

Even at the end of the game, we lined up in different formation that he hadn't seen and he called out our play before I got the ball. I heard him calling it out. -John Wall on Brad Stevens
Crowder didn't get snubbed, he is highly overrated on this board. Bradley and Smart seem about right. Bradley's only "snub" was positions, as he had the 10th most votes, but Giannis as a forward got the 10th slot. I have no issue with Westbrook receiving 10 points. And who really cares if Aldridge, Lillard, Thomas, and C. Zeller got 1 second place vote. It is essentially meaningless.

He was excellent and deserved to make one of the teams in 2016, despite missing by a vote or two. I think most realize that he regressed pretty dramatically this year and was in no way deserving of making either team.

Bradley is incredibly overrated based on his defense in isolation when the rest of his defense holds little value.
Too often, we judge other groups by their worst examples while judging ourselves by our best intentions.

Bradley's time out cost him. He is a better defender than Paul, Giannis, and Tony Allen at this point in their respective careers. Wonder how much Boston's porous defense cost Smart and Bradley, two excellent defenders.

Defense is a team game.
