Watching some prime Kobe tape and, man, he faced an absolute gauntlet of elite wing defenders. All in the postseason, too.
Kirilenko
Marion
Artest
Battier
Tayshaun Prince
Bowen
Tony Allen
Am I missing anyone?
Hakeem's got to be up there, doesn't he? Robinson, Ewing, Mutombo, Mourning, etc. Wilt and Bill played each other damn near every other game, so that's definitely a tough out.
Probably Wilt if were talking playoffs. Playoffs were much shorter so you had to face a top guy every time. No padding against bums. Kobe did face a gauntlet though. Maybe we can add Ruben Patterson from the Jailblazers as well. :lol That guy was a legit bad guy though. Raja Bell was tough too.
Kareem is a decent honorable mention too. So many series against Reed, Wilt, Thurmond, Cowens, Walton, Sikma...
LeBron. And it's not close.

I dunno if Raja Bell was considered elite but he sure was physical with Bean. The way Louie would do to MJ if that son of a bitch MJ try to be a bully.
