Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
At the very least, Hakeem, Duncan, Robinson, Garnett, Rodman and Wallace were better.

Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
the only thing that would even have him in the top guys ever would be defensive +/- where he's 4th all time. Been 4 years since he was DPOY, first team all D or led the league in the previous stat listed. A lot of guys have better resumes

Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
He's not even the best defensive player of his era, let alone the entire history of the NBA. These NBA players nowadays have become such divas that they think they're more special than they actually are.

Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
Huge delusion leaking off of gsw success. He would not even be discussed if he played in a different team.

Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
HELL NO!!! Rodman and KG standout to me because of their positional versatility AND elite athletic ability as a package. Draymond has positionless defensive qualities as well. BUT not on the level of Rodman and KG. The fact KG did that at 7'0 tall in my book makes him the most UNIQUE of the great defenders. Because u just don't see guys capable of that besides a Giannis type. Or AD who isn't quite 7'0.
And Rodman (who is closer to Dray's size than KG) is much more athletic, stronger, and has one of the best motors of all time. Hell you can look at Rodman's defense and hustle and TELL it's on another level than Draymond. Dray is a great defender no doubt. BUT he needs to pump his brakes when he says he's the GOAT defender. U have guys who can defend JUST AS MANY positions as effectively or even more. Who are much more athletic and TOUGHER to score on!

Re: Draymond calls himself the GOAT defender
The donkey is truly proud he can defend better than his first scoring option. No surpise about that.
