He hasn't been trying on defense for a couple of seasons now...elite defenders (which is what LeBron is supposed to be) don't give up Finals MVPs to their defensive covers. And it wasn't like Leonard was a top 10 player at that point either. LeBron is overrated on D, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him winning finals mvp (he did nothing the first 2 games) was about his evolution as a player, not LeBron's lack of defense. Is LeBron playin' d like he did in 2009 or like he did in the '11 conference finals when he made mvp Rose his b****? No. But he's 30 now and has logged well over 40,000 minutes in his career, not to mention 3 Olympics. If you think MJ (you probably do) was playing defense at 30/31 like he did when he was 25 then you're a nut.

My memories of Mike's defense that season only involve the NBA Finals, where The Glove was supposed to be the guy who slowed him down and then Michael dismantled him on both sides of the ball.

bmags Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Agree with J4L but man that clip is ridiculous. All that stuff about him bringing a championship attitude to CLE lasted all of 3-4 games. LeBrons such a weird dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My memories of Mike's defense that season only involve the NBA Finals, where The Glove was supposed to be the guy who slowed him down and then Michael dismantled him on both sides of the ball. 1996 was actually his worst finals by far. Slightly over 27 ppg on 41.5% from the field and just over 31% from 3 (with a shorter line, mind you). So not sure where you're coming from here. Anyway, point is I've seen at least 10 different posts in this thread calling out LeBron's defense. It's getting silly. As I've pointed out, the guy has been playing 38-40 mpg since he was 18. In the playoffs (158 games), he's at 42.5 mpg. He participated in the '04, '08, and '12 Olympics. At 30, it's a shock to some that he's not playing all-world defense with all of his other responsibilities? I mean, yeah, that clip Kyyle posted was bad. But he can't post that in 1992 or 1998. If he/we could, we'd be able to catch MJ being lazy/sleepwalking/etc on individual plays and make a big deal out of it.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) I get that LeBron is older and has a ton mileage. My point still stands, he is no longer an elite defender. If you still think he is (you probably do), then you're a bigger nut than I am. Edited January 17, 2015 by MexSoxFan#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can he play DPOY-type D all game, every game as he did from '09 through '13? I'm thinking no. But if *insert name* is going off and you need somebody to cool him off, yes, LeBron is most definitely capable of doing that more times than not.

Really I think you can make a case for him and Horford to be All-Stars this season. Budenholzer's Offensive System is a thing of beauty ATM, when it's getting executed as well as this.
