LeBron James Forgets to Play Defense

2016-01-23 31

LeBron James is not a bad defender, but because he's the focal point of the Cleveland Cavaliers offense, he sometimes gets the privilege of manning up againt his opponents' least threatening offensive players. Such was the case Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers, when Bron Bron matched up against Luc Mbah a Moute, a defensive specialist with almost no tools to scare opponents on the other end of the court. That doesn't mean one should ignore him completely, like James did here.
