Lebron's claim to fame is a weak side help block on Tiago Splitter. Is there any footage where he successfully was put on a real center for big stretches of games?

Lebron's claim to fame is a weak side help block on Tiago Splitter. Is there any footage where he successfully was put on a real center for big stretches of games?It's definitely easier to be a 1-5 defender in this day and age. Half the centers are 6'6-8" tweener forwards. Like yeah, Lebron can lock down 6'4 PJ Tucker playing center for the Rockets, but like Manny pointed out above, he's not guarding Jokic and he's not guarding Embiid.

And I'm not one of those old heads trying to make fun of the modern game for not having true centers. The game's just changed, and some things are easier and other things are tougher. Guarding 1-5 is just much easier now. If Pippen played today, he'd be a 1-5 elite defender... with the exception of getting his shit pushed in by Embiid and Jokic. If a sport doesn't change and just stagnates it dies.

Lebron can’t even guard guys at his position. Kawhi, Durant, Iggy, Marion, Pierce, Booker to name a few who torched Lebron.
