    I first heard of Xavier McDaniel maybe a month or two ago.. but what about him? Was he a great defender, or just a tough guy?

    Another name I don't think I've seen, though I may have missed it, is Kurt Thomas. He was a good defensive post player, was he not?

    Why does almost everyone post only perimeter players?
    The ones that first come to my mind are:

    Russell
    Thurmond
    Wilt
    Mutombo

    Some of the lesser known great man to man perimeter defenders:

    Mookie Blaylock
    Speedy Claxton
    Avery Bradley

    These dudes were beasts on the perimeter on defense

    Xman was a good all around player....

    definitely NOT a lockdown defender though from what I remember

    most of what I saw from him was in his knick days...past his prime though so I can't say for sure..but tough guy rep obscures whatever else he may have been


    Thomas was a decent post defender....very good defensive instincts and solid lower body....couldn't budge or back him down in the post.....seen him do good spot work on Shaq a few times
