Just realized I meant to put LeBron at 3 behind Rodman LMAO

People probably thinking I'm crazy for not including LeBron. He's generally regarded as one of the best perimeter defenders ever.

I mean if you're going to troll by putting Kobe/Lebron in your list, why wouldn't you put them number 1? It's not realistic anyway.

[HakeemAlHilm]

Kobe, MJ, Lebron, Kawhi after 2016 should not be on these lists at all.

LeBron has some of the best defensive numbers of all time in the playoffs and passes the eye test too shutting down several perimeter stars. Has ridiculous versatility. He has more iconic defensive moments than just about anyone. You simply don't know what you're talking about.

[tpols]

pippen
artest
payton
young rodman
young garnett

I'm not going to argue about Lebron James with you.

[GimmeThat]

if you only factor man defense, then the calculation is simple, a calculation of points scored and defensive rebounding

when you factor in zone defense, it's actually a calculation of points scored, defensive rebounding and turnovers
the assist turnover ratio is actually a wrong measure as assist numbers should be correlated with FG%s
