Yep. We hear it all the time.
"LeBron is the greatest transition defender EVER!" (What does that even mean?)
"LeBron can defend all 5 positions at an elite level cause he did it against Derrick Rose for 2 games and Pau Gasol in 2012 when Pau was 32!"
Oh and the best one yet...
"Al Horford!!!"
With that being said, LeBron's defensive peak was damn impressive. He was definitely versatile, fast, and a great help defender. But the overreach is unnecessary. And it's like you said, he's underwhelming against his own position.

Yeah I've said many times on here that when engaged he's one of the best there is. Its kind of his overall presence that makes him so goid though. Playing the lanes, recovering from behind, his help defense. He is a decent on ball defender too but its never been whats made him an elite defender.
