Before Kenyon lost both legs, he was the better defender.

He's probably Denver's best defender, maybe after Camby...

Back when Kenyon was healthy in MJ, he was probably the better post defender, but even at Kenyon's peak, Marion is/was the better wing defender and help defender. I'd say Marion fairly easily overall.

KMart got utterly annihilated by Tim Duncan in the 2003 Finals. When exactly was it that he was a good post defender?

Anyways, the answer is definitely Marion.

No kidding. Kmart is not, and never has been a good defender.

kmart's played in 39 games so far this season and hasn't had any knee problems. while i'm as skeptical as any regarding microfracture surgery....he's proving people wrong, and is nearly as athletic as he ever was.

kmart's lateral quickness is right there with marions, and his hands are significantly better. marion's a better helpside defender and he puts up better stats.

watching kmart night in and night out...he's an absolutely incredible defensive player against all 5 positions, and he has the best/strongest hands in the league....and its a shame people ignore that because the best player since jordan had a good finals series against him and he's paid 14 million a season.
