LeBron for the chase downs.

But, Wade is the best guard I've ever seen at blocking shots man to man, and meeting people at the rim. It makes sense too, cause dude played Power Forward in HS :laugh:

this.


The fact that Wade routinely meets 7 footers at the rim and sends their shyt is absurd.

Chase down blocks? LeBron, EASILY.

Josh Smith is ahead of Wade and Jordan in that specific category as well.

Think about how you're comparing a 6'3 guard to guys who are 6'6-6'8-6'9...Pretty amazing feat to be known as one of the better shot blockers.

At the top.
Chase down block ..I've seen Lebron get the better of some people over the past two season but I've noticed ..that's the only way I've seen him get blocks. He kinda lets his defender get past him on purpose then kills them near the backboard.

Now what I've seen Wade do to players in the L is disrespectful. Chase down blocks, straight up one on one blocks and also the two handed blocks (which is the hardest shyt to do) that someone posted earlier. All at 6'4 with a freakish wingspan.

Jordan was a pretty good shotblocker for a guard, the career numbers between him and Wade have come up numerous times in the past couple of seasons.

GArnett used to stay pinning balls to the backboard from behind (pause) in his younger days

i rmember some mj chasedowns.. but its not well chronicled on youtube..

although i might give it to Pippen for the chasedown



btw MJ and wadepracticaly mirrors each other as best shot blocking guard with an averae of about 1.02 blocks per games..with wade edging him out..

I might take some heat for this cause hes an old school white boy but from footage I got Im also gonna give a shout out to Jerry West - he mighta been as elite a guard shot blocker as MJ and Wade - not that I have a large enough sample pool to draw career avgs but in the half dozen or so complete games I have he blocks at least 1 shot in every game except one and in two partial games (where it's only a game half and game quarter without a complete broadcast) he also blocks a shot... and some a his blocks look like :ooh:, they aint soft, he pins to the backboard and does chasedowns a few times - little dude had a 6-9 wingspan
