The NBA has officially announced its First and Second All-Defensive teams for the 2012/13 season, as voted on by the league's 30 coaches. Here are the results, with the point totals in parentheses (two points for first-place vote, one point for second-place vote):
First team:
- Guard: Tony Allen (53)
- Guard: Chris Paul (37)
- Forward: LeBron James (52)
- Forward: Serge Ibaka (46)
- Center: Tyson Chandler / Joakim Noah (24 each)
Second team:
- Guard: Avery Bradley (25)
- Guard: Mike Conley (19)
- Forward: Paul George (27)
- Forward: Tim Duncan (20)
- Center: Marc Gasol (12)
For the second straight season, the voting by the coaches differed significantly from votes cast by the media for Defensive Player of the Year. A season ago, Defensive Player of the Year Tyson Chandler didn't earn a spot on either All-Defensive team, while this season, Marc Gasol was beaten out in voting by fellow centers Joakim Noah and Chandler.
