LBJ/MJ best series' vs defenses that allow less ~100 points per 100 possessions

[PejaTheSerbSnip]

You forgot the 07-08 Celtic series -- 26 ppg on 35%

LMAO @ this clown harping on this arbitrary "100 DRTG" shit. The best part is that his sample size for Jordan consists of TWO playoff series against two of the best and most physical defenses of all time, during one of which he was 34 years old and during the other he had a badly sprained wrist.

What a fvcking clown. lol @ comparing the '93 Knicks and '97 Heat defense to the 2012 Celts (the '08 Celts would be a better comparison) or '13 Pacers.

at the claims of 100 drtg (essentially holding your teams to 100ppg) is an arbitrary number. its common knowledge that anyone holding teams to ~100 points or lower, in most eras, would be considered great defense.

lol'ing at jordan fans thinking this is some cherry-picked "advanced" metric.

A two series sample size, against two of the best and most physical defenses of all time, one at age 34 and the other with a badly sprained wrist, is not a fair barometer of ability. None of the series cited for Lebron featured teams anywhere NEAR as capable defensively as the ones for Jordan regardless of what "DRTG" says (like I said, '08 Celts are a better comparison), and Lebron was both younger and healthier in each of them. Total bullsh!t from a bullsh!t poster.

uhhh, try 3 series and a handful of regular season games, equaling any of his championship runs in the postseason.

major LOL at disregarding a practical sample size because you don't like what it entails. fvcking shook.

No, your OP cites two series only. In the OTHER thread you had made you added the '98 ECF as well (Jordan at age 35 running on fumes). You have never detailed which regular season games you supposedly included. I will wait for that info, but I imagine it's a few games against the (surprise!) '93 Knicks.

DTrg across eras is a stupid comparison. It's all about their rank within context. MJ slaughtered numerous #1 defenses in the playoffs. He's probably the best all-time at doing it. LeBron in 2nd place. Which is justifiably where he belongs.
