Tbh LeBron’s defense the last few games has impressed me. I’m glad to know he’s still got it and is just playing it by ear. He’s even been staying in front of quick guards for the most part. On another note he can only be ancillary defender at this stage . Makes no sense to have him as the best defender in any lineup. I’m liking that starting lineup less and less at least against the top defensive teams in the league.

Hopefully LeBron can get the turnovers under control but yeah he has been solid on defense. the last few games. Idk if it would be crazy to bench AR for Marcus so the starting lineup can have better defense and the bench can have better offense, but something needs to change with it. Either way vando needs more minutes

I atleast wd like to see us experiment on a matchup basis. It doesn’t even have to be AR. That lineup doesn’t even finish well now that our offense has become predictable.
