But by no means is he some sort of relentless savage and ball hawk on the defensive like a Jerry West, Bill Russell, Michael Jordan or Scottie Pippen were. Lebron is a serviceable defender under the right system. 1 on 1 he gets exposed every time by any half-way decent offensive player. His athletic looking 'chase-down blocks' from a few years back vastly overrated his stock as a defender.

How come players like Rose, Parker and Carmelo put up terrible numbers when Bron is on him though? Is it just a massive coincidence?

lettuce brill tho we gon act like LeBron didn't shut down Paul George like a week ago? Everyone knows Nick Young's swag can soar off the charts at any time, the JR Smith of the west was a good comparison

Honestly, LeBron's on-ball defense is solid.
During the '11 ECF, dude held Rose to 6.3% shooting in 4th quarters
Held Melo to 38% in the 2012 playoffs (54% against Battier)
I'd say his awareness when it comes to rotating and being in the right spot and ability to create turnovers (transition from defense to offense) is where he really makes his impact.

Because they cant shoot and all he has to do is shadow them.

Anybody else notice Lebron also was completely scoreless when SwaggyP was guarding him?

Yea, this Christmas Day game suddenly means "Swaggy P" is going to be the best player in the NBA and LeBron is going to be an incredibly-inconsistent-chucker-that-does-nothing-else bench warmer.
All hail Swaggy P!

No he didn't. Melo averaged 30 pts on 50%+ shooting despite losing the series.
