    Lebron James is responsible for the Game 3 Loss the Lakers suffered to the Denver Nuggets. His lazy defense and lack of any responsibility is costing the Lakers games and he is a liability.

      @@TheNBAGoat Bomb ? He is ranked Number 1 all time in turn over category with 5211. Westbrook number 2 with 4587 . What about all the fouls lejoke is doing and the opponents never get the FT attempt ? you know how many ? way too much. Lakers punch the nuggets so many times and nuggets never get to the FT its some thing that should be investigated. The nba is rigged. no one is doing any thing about it.

    The difference between Lebron and Jordan defensively is massive and that's where there's a huge separation. Jordan is one of only four player to make 1st team all defense nine times and actually won player of the year on defense once. These plays show that Lebron takes plays off on defense to conserve energy for offense and also has zero real sense of the fundamentals. It's hoops 101 on defense to always see the ball and your man. There are probably thousands of plays like these throughout his career.

    To be fair last 3 were mad rotations for the whole team. Lebron goes to help the teammate, his teammates behind him should rotte to cover Lebron's man. They fail to do so. But everything else is just absent mindedness.
    I remember when MJ was playing for Wizards, he said that his mind was as sharp as ever, and with his mind he could dominate anybody on the court, but his body could no longer keep up with his mind. With lebron at this age, it is opposite, his body is still there (though you can see he lost many steps, and explosiveness), but his mind is gone. No concentration on defence, no setting your mind to what matters, instead goes on childish tantrums. He needs to retire, plain and simple, it is embarassing

    Great analysis. I not 100% convince about the play at 2:10. Reese was late on Murray and as Lebron step to up to him there was plenty of time and some player under the basket to rotate to Gordon. That one at least is arguable I think.
    And then, i'm not sure you can put that lost on Lebron defense alone doing the math you did. It put it in perspective so it make sense that you mention it but I think you would agree it's not as straigh forward. Even if he didn't lose his man that doesn't mean Denver won't score on that possession.
    Then there is the amount. Everyone make a mistake or 2 during a game. Offense don't score on perfect defense. Defense usually make a mistake. If he did what
    So cut him slack for 1 and these and the one at 2:10.
    None the less I agree with you that his defense suck on those play (I don't really watch the NBA anymore so I won't comment on the rest of the game).
    I agree that Lebron defense is one of the main reason they lost this series. But even without those 8-12 point the nugget would have win. Just play a bit harder. There is no way the Lakers could have win that series. Maybe avoid being sweep but still.
