if you had to make a purely defensive list who would make it into your top 10?
russel, wilt, hakeem, robinson, mutombo, duncan seem clear choices,
alongside those 6 there is garnett, bill walton amd for his era mark eaton as other clear ish top 10 picks and i suppose someone like nate thurmond, ben wallace, ewing or draymond green (?) may round out the top 10
who would be your picks?
