Who is the best perimeter defender in nba history?

[CarbonBraddock]

Gary Payton?
Michael Jordan?
Scottie Pippen?
Lebron James?

Not talking bout best defender period, but p4p best defender along the perimeter. Discuss.

edit: put a poll up there.

Historically Lebron... he took an L with that Durant 3 in the finals tho

Khawi will surpass Bron in time

 

[MJ Truth]

Team or just one on one? Tony Allen has an argument in the one on one conversation honestly. Team defense on the perimeter LeBron had an argument but not individually IMO.

[Professor Emeritus]

Kawhi plays the best perimeter defense I've ever seen.

Payton if we're going the "have to prove it over a full career" route though, just because Kawhi still writing his chapter.

 

[Long Live The Kane]

I wasn't aware it gotten THIS bad...Muhfukkas deadass believe LeBron is the GREATEST perimeter defender in the history of basketball???

Kawhi, Tony Allen, Patrick Beverley, Avery Bradley some of the best I’ve seen strictly staying with man on ball and hounding.
