As noted in comments, the tables do not have clustered indexes therefore you can not logically defragment them (rebuild indexes) completely. That is, the indexes are defragged but not the actual data.

Also, DELETEs from heaps (a table without a clustered index) do not deallocate space. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189245(v=sql.105).aspx for more

Finally, not having clustered indexes is generally a bad thingnot having clustered indexes is generally a bad thing except for staging tables that are truncated. However, GUIDsGUIDs are not good clustering keys

Solutions?
