Not by far. But yes his defense is > Lebrons. not by far? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? gtfo you fucking idiot....LeBron is one of the most overrated defenders I have ever seen...His defense doesn't come close to Scottie Pippen at all.

I'm positive you never watched Pippen play before biggie. Biggest fail I've seen in my life. You call us the biggest blazer homers and guess what... Pippen played on the blazers!!! Biggie watches blazers. Therefore in conclusion, biggie has seen him play. lulzies I saw Hakeem play in Toronto should I draw conclusions based on that?

i think you know what he meant. he obviously meant in his prime. You can tell from my post that's not what I thought he meant. Of course you can't tell a player's true skill-level in their last 4 years in the league. When I see a chance to jump on a play post, I do.

LeBron is way above Pippen btw. Idk how that discussion even got taken seriously (maybe it didn't my sarcasm detector is broken). LeBron's biggest weakness imo is mentally. I agree, but I feel LBJ's game is a more evolved/better version than Pippen than say the MJ or Magic comparisons. An athletic freak with great D that can facilitate, score, rebound, yet has some head issues to really be an alpha dog. I guess I can get behind this, but I feel like LBJ is closer to Magic than Pippen is to LBJ.

LBJ is being underrated as a defender in this thread imo. Not on Pippen's level, but great in his own right.

Why didn't LeBron stay with the Cavs?
I missed those type of games where he took over like against the Pistons in the playoffs. I'm being serious too.

He didn't stay because he rather just be the second banana.

lebron is a good defender, not great. He doesn't take it personally when they score on him, you can just tell. He takes a lot of possessions off on the defensive end. He just makes a lot of highlights that make him look good.

LBJ is a phenomenal defender, but gets lazy at times and tries to stat pad with steals and gives up baskets in doing so.
Definitely not on the Jordan-level as a perimeter defender, but awesome in his own right.

But -- he's a bitch as well and left to try and ride Wade's jock to a title ... it's a shame he destroyed his own legacy(not that it matters, he would never overtake MJ anyway - and I hate MJ).
