    LeBron

    Who else? Wade and LeBron both were above the hoop, rim protectors

    Dwight, Hibbert, Garnett, Splitter, Duncan, Yao, Tyson Chandler, etc..

    Nope

    Kobe wasn't a rim protector

    He didn't routinely stand in the middle of the court and block bigmen like this



    He was a roamer out on the perimeter

    LeBron also does that, but he also can be a rim protector, playing the bigman position on defense

    There is nothing that emphasizes a rim protecting play more than a one on one block at the rim against a bigman

    LeBron has Rim Protector ability

    Wade did as well

    Bird averaged the same amount of blocks as Lebron does.
