2. Hakeem
3. Dennis Rodman
4. Ben Wallace
5. Joe Dumars
6. Bill Russell *(not competetive era)
7. Kevin Mchale
8. Mutombo
9. Ron Harper
10. LeBron James
Whos yours?

This a terrible list. You dont' even have Hakeem Olajuwon and David Robinson on it, but have Mutombo? This is laughable.

Re: Whos your top 10 defenders Alltime?
Mutombo couldn't guard anyone?
He was one of the best one on one defenders and paint protectors EVER. Per blocked shot he also fouled less than Hakeem.

You are going to argue Mutombo was a better defensive player than Hakeem Olajuwon? Good luck...
And no he was not one of the best one on one defenders. He couldn't even guard David Robinson because he was TOO SLOW. They had their PF guard Robinson because Mutombo couldn't keep up.

There are so many good defenders that a top 10 isn't even fair. I tried though.

I know, I had a tough time compiling the list, KG was on my mind but couldn't crack LeBrons dominate defense.

8. Dikembe Mutombo
9. Wilt Chamberlain
Really struggling for a #10. Dwight gets pretty underrated, but I don't know if he was that good. Certainly Bill Walton if we're talking about peaks, but he wasn't on the floor enough for an entire prime. Maybe Bob Lanier? Maybe AK47? I don't know if I could put a non-PF/C in the top 10 (though Rodman did play a fair share of SF).

No GP. List isn't credible.

Eh, relative to the position he'd be there (along with Pippen, Jordan and Moncrief). But just in terms of impacting the defense? He's not even top 25.
