They might not have a 38 year old Jason Kidd, but Billups isn't a bad defender. He was on the All-Defensive Second Team two years in a row, so he knows how to play defense and he does. But, he is getting a bit older and that is harmful. I still think that we're going to pull a center in with our 17th pick. Get a big 7' guy in the paint and suddenly, we've got a great position to run the zone defense. The zone defense would actually be a great way for them to play.
