TMac.

[Pimpdaddy311991]

TMac.

At least Tmac is athletic, but i gotta say Dirk he is soooo slow

Sammy "No Legs" McGee....back in the '50s

shawn bradley has to be up there besides all the blocks.

now i take "defensive rating" with a grain of salt, but here is the list of players with the worst defensive ratings for players who've played at least 250 NBA games, averaging at least 20 minutes per game:

here

some notable names:

ronaldo blackman, kiki vandeghwe, nate robinson, mahmoud abdul-rauf, jose calderon, kevin martin, bj armstrong, monta ellis, steve blake, john paxson, scott skiles.

take it for what its worth; i don't buy the list completely (joe dumars is ranked 60th worst or something... bs) but it is interesting to see some players on there that we currently view as bad defendrs (calderon, martin, rudy gay)

Your HOMIE rapes you every night and you dont even know it. So I would stop listening to him...

Amare is probably the worst defender of any mutiple time all star in recent history. Especially true for players at the 4 or 5 position.

thats idiotic. Dirk aint the greatest but he is nowhere near the worst.

He was noticeably better than Antawn Jamison when they played together and he has only gotten better at D since then.

Barkley is probably the worst of all the all-time greats especially his last 7-8 seasons

[magnax1]

Ummmm..... Magic, Nash and the forward on 90's warriors, whos name has escaped me (chris Mullin) are the three worst all star level defenders I can think of.

Co-sign. He was one of my favorites, but defense simply wasn't his forte.
