AD’s defense is overrated

[HoopsNY]

It's pathetic how Bran stans stop at nothing to diminish from just about every player/star that LeBron has ever played alongside, just to prop him up. Imagine thinking LeBron is the "defensive anchor" of the Lakers and saying it with a straight face. Mind boggling.

Is does not seem like it's about the sport anymore. It seems to stop and end with Lebron which is absurd. There are a lot more watchable players that Lebron. These nuts fixate on stats and stat accumulation like that is comparable to a well executed move that doesn't involve ugly stiff arming or crab walking.

Anthony Davis has the best DRTG on the Lakers, followed by Marc Gasol.

That is who is anchoring their defense.

Lebron has the same defensive ranking as Kyle Kuzma.

It's funny because the 2019 Lakers were the 12th ranked defense, and the 2018 Cavs were the 29th ranked defense... and yet we're supposed to believe Bran is anchoring them. AD comes over and right now they are the #1 defense. Strange coincidence huh?

AD finished 2nd in DPOY last year and we have kids on this thread talking about LeBron anchors the defense, yet AD is the one that's overrated? Unbelievable.
