did lebron play good defense in the 2015 finals?

[riseagainst]

:confusedshrug:

[Achilleas]

no

[diamenz]

what do u think?

[GIF REACTION]

Individually, not notable

But as a team they were solid

Lebron was completely gassed carrying the team

When on the court: Team offensive rating was 93

When off the court: Team offensive rating was 40

He had the highest individual player offensive rating effect in NBA history

[FreezingTsmoove]

Nah

[L.A. Jazz]

No.

He couldnt because he had to dominate every offensive posession by dribbling for 20 seconds. that was the Cavs plan because of them missing Kyrie and KLove.

[JerrySeinfeld]

No.

Seems like it's what the Warriors wanted as well.

Warriors probably wanted the pace to be faster.

I mean, they were going to win either way but the Cavs slow pace played a large part in them winning two games.

[dubeta]

Yes, better than Kobe's entire career, if that's any indication

[Lebronxrings]

Still a better defender than kobe

[34-24 Footwork]

Anyone that Lebron guards in the Finals as of late wins the Finals MVP. So no :lol

[Dr Seuss]

very much in agreement with you, except for this one tidbit:

kobe never let his finals match up average double their regular season ppg.

Kobe also won a championship averaging 15 ppg on 37% and another one shooting 6/24


Fail

This. If that's not the ultimate sign of his sub-par defense, then I don't know what is. Maybe a picture of him wearing a t-shirt that says "Check my stats, but I can't check anyone"?

[dubeta]

Trolls that don't even know that Mosgov was the one guarding Iggy :lol



No wonder they're kobetards

[!@#$%Vectors!@#]

No he got posterized by Barnes a few times. Got rekt by Green , Lost he ring, Lost the Finals MVP and got Shit on my Steph even after his attempted injury.

LeBron at that same age carried the worst supporting cast in NBA History to the finals averaging 26/7/7 :confusedshrug:



Not our fault it took Kobe half a decade just to resemble a NBA player

[sd3035]

Lebald was the Warrior's best defender, freezing out all of his teammates

[Hey Yo]

very much in agreement with you, except for this one tidbit:

kobe never let his finals match up average double their regular season ppg.
Did Kobe's match up's avg. 10 more MP, double their FGA and take 3X the amount of FTA in the Finals compared to regular season?

[imdaman99]

Of course. He shut down Steph Curry for half the series. I was told Lebron was singlehandedly beating the Warriors 2-1 so there you go.

Curry's Concussion helped the Cavs

sounds like he had an easy time getting off shots or getting hacked by a shit defender:lol

so you fault kobe for locking up his match up more than lebron? strange argument....

[Hey Yo]

No, I don't fault Kobe for ever being remotely close to a Finals situation that LeBron was in last season.
