View Full Version : LeBron has amazing athleticism for his age but he’s not effective

For age 40, LeBron can sure dunk and his chase down blocks are astounding. His numbers are good. But it doesn’t change the fact that LeBron is a negative plus/minus player. He doesn’t make teams better anymore. He has the highlight plays. But he is a liability out there the majority of the time.

You cannot brag about his stats but choose to ignore his plus minus stats. You can say all you want about how he’s 40 but the scoreboard doesn’t factor that in like how in golf you get a handicap score. I’m sorry but it doesn’t work that way. LeBron James is no longer effective as a team player on the court. One amazing chase down doesn’t get rid of 5-8 times where he lets the opponent easily score and he acts like someone else was supposed to guard for him. It doesn’t work that way.

So while I admit he puts up some good highlights here and there, it looks like he chose to go for highlights but sacrificed the rest of his game just so he could have the energy for the highlights. But he doesn’t have the energy for all the other plays. That’s why Lebron hurts the team. It’s like playing a video game but using one player to get stats and look at what happens to the overall team.

Like I said you don’t get a handicap score for being 40. You don’t get brownie points. In terms of effectiveness, you and I BOTH agree 100 percent that LeBron is a liability.

Net negative. Any way you try to slice it, no matter how much damage control you try to do, he's still a net negative.

Yea a net negative is still a net negative. Let’s see LeBron play properly like a regular starter who plays defense and plays a team game.

Is his plus minus due to a complete lack of defensive effectiveness?

07-05-2025, 02:13 PM
I've been saying for years that he should have moved to 6th man if he actually wanted to be effective.

He doesn't bring enough to be effective as a high minute starter, but as a 6th man, he could make those role players on the bench better.

Ehh, you guys just keep holding him to an unbelievable standard. It says you guys truly believe hes worthy of goat without actually saying it. His plus or minus, honestly from watching him just means he cant carry the bench lineups to a positive anymore, and they (meaning probably him and his coach) arent facing this reality and still running him with weak lineups like his teams could do in his prime and a bit past it. If you can tell me what other player either this age, or this many seasons in still carried any lineups let alone the 2nd unit guys, you'd have a point. Unfortunately for you, as usual you miss the big picture standing right in front of it because you're so focused on a small detail.

Is his plus minus due to a complete lack of defensive effectiveness?

Mostly yeah. Bulk of it can be blamed on 3PT% difference as in opponents shot 5% worse with him off the court, but he is lazy to close out on 3PT shooters these days. Lakers however also were able to maintain their offense in the non-Lebron minutes which really wasn't the case in years past. Reaves really stepped up and obviously him and Luka were not completely on the same page so Doncic was probably more comfortable doing his thing in the non-James minutes, often having those 1st half explosions while James rested on the bench.

His poor plus minus was mostly from his poor start to the season, and old LeBron always stars seasons kinda slow. Once he got into a groove he was positive. Remember all the games they won without AD before he got traded? They went 8-1 without AD last season, before Luka even made his debut with us. No 40 year old came close to this impact.

He may be sometimes considering the circumstance. Plus minus isn't a tool for dummies thats for sure. You have to see the lineups guys are ran in amongst other things most fans are too lazy to check. But let's entertain for a moment that Lebron's actually a net negative player despite what your eyes will show. Hes old and no one gets bad makrs for not being able to carry a team at 40 or at year 2178. Thw deal with him in his later years is he can still do most of the things he could in his prime, but in his prime he could do all that shit at the same time. Now he has to pick his spots and conserve when necessary. If you somehow think this is some major black mark on his goat case, youre doing it wrong.

Well, he doesn't have a GOAT case, but let's put that aside for the moment. The rest of what you said is correct, and the fact that he's a net negative at 40 years old is not a black mark on the rest of his career (except for his playoff choke - that's a black mark at any age). But even though it's not a black mark, threads like this come about because of the endless spamming of Bronie fluffers on here who insist that Lebron is still a top 10 player. He's nowhere even close to that.

Yeah, if you're always on good teams the plain +/- on the court is going to be decent. Most of Lebron's teams were pretty top heavy not necessarily loaded in depth, so they had problems producing on the court when him and other starters rested.

I, in fact, conceded that it was a choke job. Here is my actual post:


No question he pulled an offensive stinker, but he made up for it by being an absolute beast on the defensive end. Did you even watch the game?

We can chalk it up as a choke job though if you want. Now he only has 44 more before he matches LeShrivel.

You'll never be able to tell that a ball-dominator has fallen off, since they always have the ball in their hands and therefore can rack up stats.

But an old ball-dominator no longer wins the all-important "attrition battle" at the heart of every basketball game, i.e. they don't foster a forceful offense that wears down an opponent defensively, thereby giving them less capacity for offense.. The team on their heels defensively will have less capacity to "get hot" offensively.. aka the best defense is a good offense - a tenet of all competition.

Unfortunately, defenses don't get worn down defending Lebron's ever-increasing plodding - aka LePlod - just watch highlights of him from 2009 and you will see within 2 seconds what I mean - the current Lebron is a snail by comparison.. So Lebron has no force anymore, just like an old man - he can't wear down defenses anymore (thus leaving them less capacity for offense).. He doesn't win the attrition battle anymore...

Since Lebron can't wear down the opponent, the Lakers face fresh opponents and therefore have maximum defensive requirements - Lebron doesn't lower his team's defensive requirements by wearing down the opponent (facing worn-down opponents).. Again, all of this is called "being old".

Btw, the reality is that Lebron's ball-dominant style has always let defenses rest and has never won the attrition battle like the zippy ball movement teams that destroy him (Spurs, Warriors, Nuggets, Mavs, etc).. It's one of the reasons that all ball-dominators are beneath the best of other skillsets that favor ball movement, such as jumpshooters or bigs (who are assisted on a lot of their shots).. Since ball-dominators are beneath the best bigs or jumpshooters, they're outside the top 10 all-time.

Here's a snapshot of Lebron's, AKA LeShrivel's, choking just in the post season.


2007 game 1 against Detroit. 10 points on 33% shooting. LOSS.

Game 2 against Detroit. 19 points on 37% shooting. LOSS.

Game 1 against the Spurs. 14 points on 25% shooting. LOSS.

2008 game 1 against Boston. 12 points and 10 turnovers on 11% shooting. 0/6 from three. LOSS.

Game 2 against Boston. 21 points on 25% shooting. LOSS.

Game 3 against Boston. 21 points on 31% shooting.

Game 4 against Boston. 21 points on 35% shooting.

2009 game 3 against Orlando. He scored 41 points, but on absolutely horrendous efficiency. 39% shooting and 1/8 from three. LOSS. Someone should have made him stop shooting.

2010 game 5 against Boston. 15 points on 21% shooting!!! LOSS. The series was tied 2-2 until that game. That Lebron choke put the Cavs down 3-2, and they went on to lose the series.

2011 game 1 against Philadelphia. 21 points on 29% shooting.

Game 5 against Philadelphia. 16 points on 39% shooting.

Game 3 against Boston. 15 points on 38% shooting. LOSS.

Game 1 against Chicago. 15 points on 33% shooting. LOSS.

Finals against Dallas. Most epic choke job of all time. Game 3, 17 points.

Game 4, 8 points on 27% shooting. LOSS.

Game 5, 17 points. LOSS.

Game 6, 21 points and 6 turnovers. LOSS.

2013 game 2 against San Antonio. 17 points on 41% shooting. LOSS.

Game 3 against San Antonio, 15 points on 33% shooting. LOSS.

Game 5 against San Antonio, 25 points on 36% shooting. LOSS.

2014 game 5 against Indiana. 7 points on 20% shooting. Whooaaaaaaaa! LOSS.

2015 game 1 against Chicago. 19 points on 41% shooting. LOSS.

Game 6 against Chicago. 15 points on 30% shooting.

Game 4 against Golden State. 20 points on 32% shooting.

2016 game 3 against Detroit. 20 points on 33% shooting.

Game 2 against Golden State. 19 points on 42% shooting. LOSS.

2017 game 3 against Boston. 11 points on 31% shooting. LOSS.

2018 game 1 against Indiana. 24 points on 41% shooting. 0% from three. LOSS.

Game 1 against Boston. 15 points on 31% shooting. LOSS.

2020 game 2 against Portland. 10 points on 36% shooting.

Game 1 against Houston. 20 points. LOSS.

Game 4 against Houston. 16 points on 41% shooting.

Game 1 against Denver. 15 points.

2021 game 1 against Phoenix. 18 points on 46% shooting. LOSS.

Game 3 against Phoenix. 21 points and 7 turnovers on 47% shooting.

Game 6 against Phoenix. 29 points on 11/26 shooting. ELIMINATION.

2023 game 5 against Memphis. 15 points on 29% shooting. 1-9 from three. LOSS.

Game 1 against Golden State. 22 points on 38% shooting. 1-8 from three.

Game 2 against Denver. 22 points. 0-6 from three. LOSS.

Game 4 against Denver. Wasted multiple possessions in 4th quarter, missed key shots, and blew the game-tying shot in the last possession. SWEPT.

2024 game 1 against Denver. 0 points in the fourth quarter of a close game. Actually, he had two points, but that was from an uncontested layup in the final minute of the game after Denver had already closed the game out. LOSS

Game 2 against Denver. The game is tied and the Lakers have the final possession. Instead of running the clock down, Lebron clanks a low-IQ three point shot, leaving Denver with plenty of time for a final possession. Murray, who is way more clutch than Lebron, makes the buzzer beater. LOSS.

2025 game 1 against Minnesota. 19 points in an embarrassing blowout loss.

Game 4 against Minnesota. ZERO points in the fourth quarter of a razor-close must win game. LOSS.

Game 5 against Minnesota. ONE field goal in the fourth quarter of elimination game (not counting an uncontested layup in garbage time). LOSS and ELIMINATED.

He was plenty effective but LAs frontcourt got dominated by Rudy "Wilt Chamberlain" Gobert in the playoffs.

This has been common knowledge for some time now. Hes had more playoff game winners inn
a week than Kobes had in a career. And yeah he also has more playoff gamewinners than Jordan does, the most ever in fact. Go do some researxh instead of copy pasting walls of incoherent babble. Probably time to upgrade your software from LeBron troll 1.0 to the latest version , your narratives are severely outdated. Would probably help you be less of a punching bag around here too.
