agreed

i think maliq, judah and sy are the only plus zone defenders who get regular minutes

jesse - slow footwork makes him a poor anchor for the middle of the one despite potentially being a great defender (he gets a ton of blocks and rebounds)...his height seems to indicate he would be good in zone but he really isn't
benny - slow to rotate and often loses his man in the zone
justin - poor rebounder [I]as a forward[/I] ...too small to defend in the paint ( i think he could be a good defender as a guard)
symir - could be a great man to man defender, imo...pretty good in zone though
joe - bad defender in zone,,,barely challenges shots
judah - great at steals...often overrotates and leads to easy buckets given up - could be good in either man or zone...but is a very good defender for zone overall, imo
maliq - fits zone very well...would probably also be good in man as well
bell - would probably do a bit better in man...struggles with some aspects of zone defense and rebounding/defending in the paint
quadir - good defensive activity but still too raw oftentimes to play a lot of minutes...could be good in any defense imo
