What has Posey, Johnson, Hamilton, and Kobe done to be put ahead Prince?
LeBron hasnt done anything big defensively then have Pierce drop 40+ on him in game 7. Hamilton is solid on the perimeter, held LBJ to 14 last year, but hasnt had nay huge plays that won a game or locked down a superstar to win a series. Neither has Johnson. Posey has held some good players to low numbers, but Prince has made "clutcher" plays defensivley, and held 2 of the best scorers in the NBA to low numbers, bad shooting %'s, all in his first 2 seasons.
- Prince shut down Kobe in one of the biggest upsets in finals history
- when the pistons were down 3-0 to McGradys magic (tay DNP the didnt play the first 3 games) he was inserted into the starting lineup as a rookie and shut down tmac in route to a series victory in 7 games
- One of the best defensive plays in playoffs history which saved the original "guransheed." A huge roadd victory and statement game agaisnt a top seeded Pacers team in game 2.
- Hit a floater to put Detroit up 1 in game 5 last year. 8 seconds left. Magic inbound, Hedo isolates Prince. Hes rejected at the basket and at the buzzer.

Thats an impresive- yet brief, resume from a skinny kid from Compton.
