8. Tyson Chandler

2012-13 Season Averages: 10.7 ppg, 11 rpg, 1.1 blkpg

Tyson Chandler made his All-Star debut this year and is the reigning defensive player of the year, but his lack of offense is what pulls him all the way down to eighth on this list.

He is averaging 64.5% in field goal percentage, mainly because his offense is limited to pick and rolls, lobs and putbacks.

Chandler is still one of the best post defenders, but his defense overall is not quite as good as it was last year.
