Nobody did it better than that guy.

There is nothing that emphasizes a rim protecting play more than a one on one block at the rim against a bigman

LeBron has Rim Protector ability

Wade did as well

A play is not as valuable as someone you know you can leave in the middle and know that he will be altering shots all game.

He's not a protector. He just has fancy blocks as a weakside blocker.


Gobert/Howard/Jordan/Whiteside/Davis - those are rim protectors.


Just stop with your obsessing and spamming of the boards with this stuff. You don't need to post four lebron topics a day to get your point across.

LeBron was a better Chest2Chest Rim protector on 7 footers

OK, he has ability. I have the ability to make a 3pt shot. Doesn't make me Best in the World Steph Curry.



And link to your proof. Too many times you claim all these numbers with no proof.


I say lebron played 78% of his time at PG during the playoffs last year. See how easy that was?

[Lebronxrings]

i guess if you want to count him now then Ibaka.

Basketball reference

Look it up

LeBron blocks some of the best bigmen in the game

That's elite status rim protection

He's a two time DPOY runner up

That's because his elite rim protector ability is only one small part of his overall GOAT tier defensive game

He defends 1-5 elite

Where have you been the last decade?

No. Link it up. I'm not doing YOUR "research".


You claim this, so back it up.


He blocks these guys on weakside blocks after their primary defender has gotten lost on pnr. Hell, half the gifs you posted have the big man mishandling the ball on the way up and not even jumping to their full ability.


He's a runner up. I know. He's the GOAT at that. You want to call him a rim protector, so what is Kawhi? He's an actual winner of the DPOY twice.
