A lot of smaller guys that are athletic give Nowitzki problems because he's not physically dominant. If you are athletic with long arms, you can give Dirk problems. McGrady should never be considered a good defensive player and that's sad because he could have been. Guys like James, Bryant, Wade, and McGrady could all be great defenders because they have the physical abilities. But it takes the mental desire to want to be. Jordan had it. Bryant used to have it. James has it now.
