I don't agree.LeBron is a good defender but the fact that he has Wade and Chalmers roaming helps imo.He's better at help defense than on the ball defense imo.Kobe like Jordan was a GREAT on the ball defender.The Heat ran basically a box and one against the Bulls.He had help keeping Rose from driving.Wade and LeBron cut off all driving lanes.Shut down Anthony?Didn't Melo just have 40 on the Heat in the game before this playoff game?The Heat as a whole shut down Melo.Than ran 2 and 3 people at him dude.What are you watching?Don't get me wrong,LeBron has vastly improved his defensive skills.

Kobe is great defender when he wants to be.
But, at this point in his career, he has to pick and choose carefully when he is gonna be the premier defender.
With that said, Artest, T. Allen, S. Marion, are great great great defenders. I could throw G. Hill in there as well if he stayed healthy.
The NBA overrates the star defenders, and undervalue the guys that are committed to doing the dirty work for 48 mins straight.
But, the stars have to score so, defense is gonna come and go, as needed.

USC is a powerful place that Lane Kiffin is ruining.

The Bulls played the Cavs the year before LeBron bounced town for Miami.LeBron was considered the same defender he is now.Rose ate his ass up.You know why?Because he didn't have to worry about another great perimeter(Wade)running at him.This is just what I noticed.The Heat have a GREAT perimeter defense not just because of LeBron.Wade has a helluva lot to do with it to.
