I always maintain if Tony Allen doesn't get hurt the Marc Gasol Grizzlies would have beaten the Warriors in the playoffs. Steph & Klay NEVER had success against Tony Allen. Absolutely convinced Tony Allen's injury was the TRUE start of the Warriors dynasty.
As far as defenders can't forget tayshaun and my fuckin guy, Gerald Wallace 💯 put some respect on his name too lol notin but love for him as a player 🫡
Alot of athletes and men in general can learn alot about success through Kobes words. Kobe had the most respect for players that werent afraid to take it to him.
He didn't even mention Artest and Battier both whom he faced at the same time in that 09 Houston series this why he's the GOAT dude faced arguably the toughest defensive coverages in a slow paced game of basketball and was still cooking dudes
Notice he didn’t say Shane Battie because as Shane battie explained it wasn’t about being able to stop Kobe it was to make him take the hardest shot anyone could take pull up middy …. It was Kobe trying to prove he could do it because Shane challenged him that said Kobe was literally unguardable he had a counter, for your counter, to his counters,counter…..
you dont need a kobe stopper. that dude will just shoots 45% anyway. thats why detroit let him cook they didnt defend him well so the ball will be out of shaqs hand. its simple.give the ball to someone who think they are better

Lol watch refs cheated. Anyone can look great if all the refs cheated lol u were and will always be a joke
I wish this guy was still alive.
He couldn't even make open layups. He better be good on defense to be in the nba
I remember in '08 when the Hawks had Mike Bibby on Tony Allen and Tony Allen every run down the court was a windmill or a tomahawk slam

Raja bell a 2k favorite
nba sucks now i dont even watch anymore
FIRST TEAM ALL-DEFENSE
No Tayshon Prince. He defended Kobe well 4/5 of the games in that Series.
now nba is a sissy game little touch foul
1st team all defense!!!😂
Maybe Tayshon Prince?
Shane battier
I luv Kobe Bryant he's a jungle lion likee feel me bro😂
Surprised that Shane Battier didnt come up on this either
Exactly why I don't play poker anymore
Helicopter
Tony was on the Celtics no doubt but he was such a big part of those Memphis zbo grit and grind teams. Loved it.

He won't say TMac I get why
There is no antidote.
Tony Allen, Raja Bell, Metta World Peace
Raja bell didnt get enough time he was out of the league fast cause he played defense
A lot of the great defenders got dirty
Only 1 they COULD NOT STOP..
Some guy name AIR JORDAN
I thought he said TMac on a different vid
Tashun Prince?? RIP Kobe
If i remember correctly Kobe actually continue's saying a few tough defenders and then says he had the most trouble with T Mac.
Mj never had to be guarded by anyone as good as them
If Kobe gave you high praises. That means you were doing a great job, regardless if you became a HOFer.
Erne such a great interviewer
Raja Bell. Underrated by everyone, but Kobe
I would’ve thought it’d be Tmac
It sure wasn't ruben patterson
I say Bruce Bowen and Shane Battier
T mac
Pistons stopped him in 2004. But he won’t say that.
KD says the same exact thing
Kobe & KD said he was the man. I dare anyone to argue.

Tony Allen was the only guy I saw that locked down KD.

The grindfather!
I love how he still keeping the “i didnt know him at that time” …. Kobe you gentlemen swept him in the 2001 Finals.
FIRST. TEAM. ALL. DEFENSE.
