Let's say peak is the absolute best 1-2 season stretch. Which of these SGs do you think peaked the highest as overall players? Not just statistically or achievement wise but how talented and effective they were as players

Kobe and Wade were elite defensively too at one point

[–] BigDaddyJuno@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Harden was much better than both offensively

[–] Longjumping-Sort3741@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No, he wasn't. Comparing stats across eras is dumb. Both these dudes were better offensively and significantly better defensively.

Doesnt Wade have like the most blocks for guards or smth ? He was a beast on d + he actually used his wingspan for defense not only for offense like more guards tend to do... looking at you D.Mitchell ...

[–] Cockhero43@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Most by any player under 6'4"!

[–] AaronJudgesToothGap@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, most blocks by a guard all time. From a relatively undersized guard with bad knees. He had incredible timing

[–] desrever1138@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Actually MJ has him beat by 8 total blocks lol.

But yeah, Wade is definitely one of the best defensive guard all time.

Especially if you account for his size.
