c/s. I used to think it was bad how badly people overrated Kobe's defense but LeBron is at a whole other level. This guy gets torched too often, he wasn't even close to being able to contain Melo the other day, let alone make life difficult for him. Like many players nowadays his on-ball defense is basically ignored.Originally Posted by Cyber Smoke
Most overrated defender of all time . $#@! is ridiculous now. I've seen this dude get lit up way too many times to continue with this "ultimate defender" title you guys give him.
That's what we get in this era, a few chase down blocks and jumping the passing lanes and the someone is a first team All-Defense lock. And the Rose thing last year is ridiculous, the Bulls had no shooters to spread the floor, Miami employed the Rondo Defense and had LeBron sag way off and at 6'8 he was still able to challenge Rose's jumpers while giving him enough space to keep himself in front of Rose on a drive. It was the absolute perfect match up for LeBron to shine.
