Kawhi Leonard of the San Antonio Spurs has been named the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year for two years running, while Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors has come in second in both instances.
The debate over which of the two is the league's best defender is already underway yet again this season, with Draymond recently voicing his displeasure with the fact that some pundits were calling for the Warriors to take a step back on defense with the addition of Kevin Durant and subtraction of Andrew Bogut this year -- as if to say that Draymond is not the anchor of what the Dubs do on D, as Green sees it.
