Unfortunately for fans of Kevin Harlan, one of the best announcers at calling exciting plays has been hampered by calling a lot of blowouts so far in this year's playoffs. The NBA's first round hasn't quite matched the drama of their NHL counterparts. Anyways, with the lack of exciting basketball (see Knicks/Heat last night) Harlan hasn't really been able to let...

Instead, this year’s honor went to New York Knicks center Tyson Chandler, because when you think of the Knicks, you think of defense.
