How strong is Tony Allen's defense? The data tells you who can stop Durant's death. Kobe called him the strongest defender. Many players that Kobe worships are not stars, and they are not even selected as all-stars. Tony Allen is one of them. During Kobe's career, he met many excellent defenders, such as Patterson, who claimed to be Kobe's terminator, Battier, Artest, DPOY and so on. But when asked about the most difficult guard, Kobe answered Tony Allen. Because he has a spirit similar to Kobe Bryant's, although Tony Allen is a small man, he is very tough, defensive and tenacious.

After 34 encounters in his career, both men won half, while Kobe's shooting percentage was only 4 1%, far below the career average. However, this may be a bit of luck, because in many games where Tony Allen played less than 10 minutes, Kobe's shooting percentage was only over 30%. In less than 20 minutes in Tony Allen, Kobe hit less than 40% in nearly 65,438+05 games. However, although it is related to luck, judging from Kobe's evaluation and the defensive effect of other defenders on Kobe, he is indeed one of the best players to defend Kobe.
