Kevin Garnett has the most defensive rebounds in NBA history

[WillC]

Im surprised they have more than Wilt.

Between them, maybe.

[Pointguard]

Not sure if serious or just trolling but they don't have more than Wilt, Russell etc. The distinction between Def. & Offen. Rebs doesn't include 60's bro.

Oh right, so I'm trolling for the right info and you didn't correct the OP? That makes you trolling, you know that right?

I remember when you said that KG was the greatest defender of all time - this might be true, but in MJ's first meeting against KG as a Wizard, they were both matched up at SF the whole game - and MJ thoroughly destroyed KG.

The youtube channel "Nobody Touches Jordan" chronicled every possession of the matchup in this video..

MJ scored 14 points on 6-11 (55%) with Garnett guarding him, including 2 assists and 2 TO's (35/6/4 overall).. Compare that to Lebron averaging 9 ppg on 4-12 (35%) against Iggy in Finals.. [COLOR="Green"]Each play with Garnett defending is listed below and linked to the video[/COLOR]:

The rebounding and block records are pretty meaningless with respect to all time totals because of the lack of "reporting/recording" from the 60's/70's....

They still cover the majority of the history of the nba. Add in I generally throw out that era due to inflated pace and awful shooting for those types of stats.

I'll let it stand Dragon.

Garnett's name would be right up there with Duncan if he woulda had a decent team. Wolves throughout the mid 90s to early 2000s were mediocre play-off teams that couldn't even beat Charles Barkley and Hakeem's Rockets.

might, Dwight Howard will pass both of them though as along as he stays healthy. Dwight's record would be difficult for anyone to break unless they revert to allowing high school draftees.

No one mentioned Jordan.You try way too hard. I'm guessing you're actually MJ with way too much time on your hands.

Garnett isn't even the best defensive player of his generation

Are you f'ing serious?

[72-10]

Are you f'ing serious?

Do you consider Garnett's generation to be separate from Ben Wallace's or Dwight Howard's?

[72-10]

I admit he got snubbed a lot though.

[FireDavidKahn]

Do you consider Garnett's generation to be separate from Ben Wallace's or Dwight Howard's?

Yes. Garnett's dominance lasted so much longer than either of those two.
