Record, LBJ player 71 Games and Led Team in Scoring, Assists and Steals. Shot a great 54% for 2pt and 41% from 3pt. Won the First In Season Tourney and Blocked a boatload of shots when absolutely needed. Lacking over all “D,” yep. And also puts those Behinds in those Seats! Making Lakers lots of $$$$$$$!

LBJ did out shoot Luka and Steph from 3pt. I’ve said for a couple years he would be a great off the ball shooting guard.
It’s not steals or blocked shots where Lebrons defense has slipped DJ. It’s getting out on shooters and contesting shots, and it’s staying in front of quick players as well. Thats where he’s dropped off. He takes defensive positions off to conserve his energy. And that’s okay, he makes up for it on offense. I’m fine with LeBron at the 4. But you hear people wanting to move AD to the 4 and bring in another center. I do not want LeBron chasing wing players on the perimeter at 40, unless you want to run him into the ground. At the 4 he sits back and reads the offense and makes plays. Thats what he is best suited for at this stage of his career.
Yep, said his “D” was lacking.
