How about he not let the man he guards win finals MVP...multiple times.

The Coli won't like this.

The Lebron hate is real. He finished 12th in voting this year for DPOY. Cavs have a top 7 defense all because of Lebron. He plays with 3 horrible defenders in Love/Kyrie/JR (even tho JR has improved defensively under Bron) yet his teams are always great defensively every year .. Cavs had a top 3 defense in 2009 with Mo Williams and some other bad defenders

 

[Optimus Prime]

he should have won that peak 2012 year when he won everything else. Marc Gasol won it that year

'09 was his best shot but Dwight was better

 

[Fade Runner 2049]

I expect even more of these threads from Lebron stans as we near yet another finals loss for Lebron

Explain how he's a better defender than Kwahi this year

 

[Kaypain]

Lebron can be a aggressive defender when he wants to...


But his play doesn't signify that of which will be DPOY worthy

 

[DIMES]

Yeah prolly 1 in Miami ... That Heat Defense was suffocating.

2009 was when I started to get really impressed (20?40? Chase down blocks) but he had trouble against Pierce & Melo I think.

Besides Dwight Howard was a literal monster those orlando years... There's no way he could've won.

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

Where is the outrage from Lebron fans concerning threads???

Oh, it's a Lebron thread.


Carry on.
