CP3 was a damn beast on both ends.
I bet you know his ***** size too you weirdo.

I don't even care about the Jordan v LeBron shit but that stats he pulls are stupid. No thought to context at all. Like most of his. It's weird

Re: top 5 two way players in nba history ( aka the real top 5 players in nba history )
Kawhi, Lebron and CP3 belong on the list.
Kobe really doesn't. There has always been a media bias about players that spend their time in LA for the duration of their careers. Same way they made it out as if Magic was a better player than Bird. Not even close.

Hakeem Olajuwon ( 6 time all nba 1st team, 5 time all defensive 1st team, 2 time defensive player of the year )
should this be the real top 5?
defense IS a thing right?
why do we give guys like magic/lebron a pass for not playing any defense whatsoever and russell a pass for not dominating offensively
...
Good list.

You think Magic's D was that lax? How do completely negate the steals? I have no doubts Ewing is top 12, might even be 10th. McHale's a no doubter.

Steals are not always an indicator of being a good defender. Iverson's top 10 in steals per game all time
