He just passes the eye-test to me as one of the toughest, most relentless and ruthless defenders ive ever seen
He would def be one of the 5. Thats all.

When did you start watching basketball?

It kinda isits not really a controversial choice
Think of all the great defensive players in history.. Bill Russell, MJ, Pippen, Rodman, KG, Gary Payton, Ben Wallace, Dwight Howard, David Robinson, Mutombo, Hakeem...
You're putting Tony Allen over at least 7 of those guys?

like 92' the 92 olympics was my earliest memories of basketball (well sports in general) i was 9
You only listed two guards tho ... so yeah, hes very close
Id personally go Glove/MJ but Tony would be on the short list behind them. MJ was more disruptive as a defender than Tony IMO, but Tony might be better at sticking someone straight up tho

Yeah I don't think Allen is like light years behind in the guard category, but he's not first team. That's controversial
