[elementally morale]

I'm not going to post the names of guys whose prime was earlier than 1980, because I haven't seen them play. Footage won't do justice, you can put together a 3 minute clip of any average defender making him look great. With that said:

1. Hakeem
2. Rodman
3. Payton
4. Pippen
5. Garnett
6. Kidd
7. Jordan
8. Mourning
9. Artest
10. Mutombo
