Hardest player to guard

Postby DaTruth36 on Fri Mar 24, 2006 9:53 am

Who do you guys think would be the hardest player in the league to guard?

Just like LeBron James said it himself, I say Paul Pierce.

Paul Pierce made Andre Kirelinko cry once because he couldn't guard him. It was hilarious.

They are all unguardable! If anyone of them is shruggerling or on fire, it really don't have much to do with the defender.

Thank you. One person who doesn't argue my judgement, and doesn't come in my thread and start bitching.

And no, this isn't another Paul Pierce thread.

It's a thread about....just read the damn title fool. I just said Paul Pierce because of what I hear and I like him.
Don't gotta be all bitchy, prick.

The hardest player to guard is simply AI, he can get by and through anybody through any situation. Bryant is obviously tough too but iverson is harder cuz of his speed

Kobe Bryant is tough to stop when he's not hurling up disgusting fadaway 20 footers on every posession.

Paul Pierce has a good combination of size, speed, quickness and ballhandling, and Carmelo also plays a similar style to Pierce. Both of those players are very talented scorers.

I believe he's a very good scorer and one of the league's most underrated players in terms of one-on-one ability, but I don't think he's the hardest player to guard.

I think I'll agree with you on that one. Richard Hamilton's body is so god-damn well conditioned, he can just keep running the whole 48 minutes. Of course, his personal ability doesn't break you, but after he's been running you off of screens, curling up to shoot that lethal mid-range shot, and basically going and going and going...I dont think many players can keep up with that.
