If lebron played for a team like south Florida...

[Goat Milk]

Everyone says he's the greatest athlete in the world for his size but he can't even average 1 block per game.



Double digit rebounds...not even close.


How the penetrate can you be so big and athletic and not be able to do that?

He has 9 years left. As Lebron loses his speed later in his career he will be more a post player and will be grabbing 10+ boards a game. I know the game. I always thought that Wade was a better shot blocker than James. Best guard blocker in NBA history.

Look at Jordan. Jordan was ruthless defensively. Wasn't a good shot blocker at all. Like PickWinnersAllDay said, not many people go to work 1 on 1 with Bron. There's only a few guys that have the balls to ISO against Lebron, one of them being Bryant, which is why most of his blocks come from chasing down guys in the open court.

Understand the game...

Just stop.
It's called knowing your role.

Revis had more interceptions in 09 then Asomaghu. But Revis was thrown at 106 times, while Asomaghu was only thrown at 28 times. I ask you who was the better shutdown corner?

Lebron can't get blocks cause no one is trying to take it up strong against him (just like Asomaghu can't get picks cause people are scared to go anywhere near him), and a fukkin guard isn't responsible for help D under the basket which is how big men accumulate the majority of their blocks.

aso was a shell of himself when he got to philly though so I'd only use past tense with him

I had "who is the better corner". Then thought someone would nail me on that one, so changed it to was.

yeah was referring to "(just like Asomaghu can't get picks cause people are scared to go anywhere near him)"

aso was dominant in oakland for sure

LOL, guess I missed fixing that one. I can't wrap my head around what happened to him. Interceptions have a lot of variance which is why many good corners come and go, that seemed like something maintainable, just flat out not letting a receiver get open.

You have proof that no one wants to go strong against him?
What about all those jump shots?
Since he's guarding "guards" and smaller players he should be a shot blocking machine or at least getting blocks from the weak side like Jordan did.

Eric Bledsoe averages more blocks this year than Lebron and he's a point guard.
Dwyane Wade averages 1 block per game and he's a shooting guard.

Jordan was a very good shot blocker in his prime. Had a few years where he averaged 1.5, 1.6 a game.

[k13]

No one takes it hard against Lebron....

[k13]

Goat, when the Lakers win the West this year, I'll agree with everything you say in this thread.

[k13]

Lebron playing D..

[k13]

Don't drive on Lebron, he's too big and athletic, especially for little stick boys...

He barely gets any fouls because he plays no defense.

You know you don't have a life when you're Googling and looking up YouTube videos of LeBron, trying to find 10 second segments of bad defense over the course of his career. You seriously don't have anything better to do than post 6 consecutive times in this thread? We can all see you either hate LeBron, love MJ, or have absolutely no eye for talent because of your stupid statements/arguments.

While we're at it, let's point out that LeBron ALWAYS covers the best offensive player on each team regardless of position. He's due to have several bad defensive possessions in his lengthy career because of what he goes up against every night he plays.

[Bostongambler]

Lol they'd roll to a title if they had present day lebron

You're kidding right LK?

He'd get over 40 a game if he wanted

Agree// look what Bird did for Indiana state.

[raiders72001]

Shaq way more dominating in his prime. Lebron ain't shit.

He'd never win a championship with a crappy team, maybe if Dwade and Bosh joined they might make the Final Four.

agree. Hack a Shaq was the only way to stop him.

[raiders72001]

LeBron wouldn't be nearly as good since they call traveling in college.

[Goat Milk]

lebron's left leg weighs more than some college players
