Dennis Rodman
Tim Duncan
Kevin Garnett
Dave DeBusschere
Elvin Hayes
Charles Oakley
Bob Pettit
Karl Malone
Karl Malone might have been the strongest PF of all time, and he shut a lot of guys down on that basis. Anyone else? I'm sure that I'm forgetting someone.

And Magic in the Finals.
and Larry Bird.
'96 Rodman couldn't guard none of these guys in their prime (maybe pippen for spurts). Hell, '88 Rodman probably couldn't either.
I thought your whole point was rodman could guard any of those guys in their prime, weren't you bringing up the 96 finals payton defensive assignment as proof, why the switch nigga?

No one but a hand ful of people here know who the hell debusschere, hayes, and pettit are.
and i think if anyone votes for Malone, they should be punched in the face.
how about Hakeem when he played with Sampson, that was a strong defensive team, i know hakeem is a C but there are a lot of hybrid PF/C's
I think Rasheed Wallace has always been one of the better defensive PF/C
no love for the nigga horace grant?
Yeah, I'd keep guys that got a lot of time at center out of it. Rasheed Wallace is a good mention. Horace Grant was a good defensive player, but he didn't have any elite-level qualities.

Now that I actually have money, I'm starting to buy a lot of these DVD sets. they are really cheap on amazon and they have them on most teams.
ESPN Classic at late night is crucial though. They usually show pre 2000 games on the regular every tuesday night i think. It helped remind me how freakishly athletic Dwight howard is......How underrated Bob McAdoo is now........Shit, I was able to see the phoenix vs. celtics triple OT game because of Classic.
Mchale's foot speed was actually pretty good, man.

You got netflix? I see that they have a ton of NBA shit listed. I've been a member since August, and in that time, I've burnt at least 80 DVDs. I'm gonna have to start adding a lot of NBA stuff to my queue.

I have it on my PS3 but i haven't activated it yet.
if i wanted to burn NBA DVDs though, i could probably use torrents. Let me check it out.

they played it by matchup because sometimes mchale would cover the SF too. but make no mistake about it....mchale was a PF.
no doubt i just remember birds lateral quickness being pretty shot so he had to body up the big men sometimes, he was a strong guy, also McHale did well on some of the better SF's of the 80's when they cross matched

bird's lateral quickness wasn't shot till he fucked up his back. He also had really quick hands. He could guard some SFs but the quicker ones or the more troublesome ones in general would go to Mchale most of the time.
