Who Can Guard LeBron?

I'm not talking about OKC's roster. I'm talking about the entire NBA...

Who has the quickness to stay in front of him, the strength to hold their ground when LeBron puts his back to the basket and the length to contest his shots?

Ron Artest is the only guy who I've consistently seen stop him.

Re: Who Can Guard LeBron?

Shawn Marion did a nice job on him last year in the Finals.

...then again, it seems like they could have put Muggsy Bogues on him last year and he still wouldn't have scored lol

I just wish he plays like he is 6'8 280 most of the time.

He should be blowing by and dunking on everyone on a consistent basis.

Too many times he settled for a jumper when he could have easily blew by Durant last night.

....and not to mention Nick freakin Collison.

You could be right. I've had that feeling about him too. However, I do think there's more to it than that in a lot of situations. For one, LeBron's threat to hit an open jump shot is what helps create his driving lanes in the first place. Second, if a team's help defense is on point, it will not always be as simple as James beating his man and scoring. As it stands, your point remains because I have not been particularly enthralled by OKC's help side contributions.

Gerald Wallace.

When Crash and Jax were in Charlotte they put the shackles on Bron.
