Anthony and Iverson aren't worse team defenders. Carmelo is better man on man when he feels like it. And Kleiza does take bad shots. He thinks he's a superstar now, so he'll throw up any three he gets. Karl just needs to do a better job designing the offense. I'm glad we didn't resign Blake but had I known Iverson was going to get moved to shooting guard, Blake probably would've been the better option.

iverson and melo are better defenders than kleiza. team or individual. kleiza can get stuck out of position and thats why he can get beat. Its just how this roster got put together.
kleiza has stepped up his game and thats why he should get credit here. I wasn't sure he'd make it in the league as a rotation player when he was in college. ( I knew Hodge wouldnt but thats another story).
A some point the Nuggets need rebuilt so Kleiza can see more time at the 3 and 4. Najera is the obvious one to trade.

They are not. Iverson constantly loses his man for no reason, just watching other people so he can gamble for steals. He can play good 1 on 1 D, but he doesn't until the last play of the 4th quarter. The rest of the game, he doesn't even bother to get into a stance, anybody in the league can just get right past him.

Carmelo overswitches constantly becasue he's too lazy to go through screens or just run across the court. He also get lost all the time. And when he tries to play defense, he's completely over agressive, either fouling or giving up the drive.

Kleiza can play solid defense on people who play his position, and is willing to do so consistently. He also makes the effort to get to the person he loses, something neither carmelo or ai do.
