Not when he has the ball 16' from the hoop and there are multiple defenders between him and the hoop.
That layup by Hickson - LMA can't do that.
Yup. But that's not to say I'd take 14 other PFs over him - maybe about 5.
True on both counts.
Skills-wise it's not even close - Bosh is the superior player. I think all of this "LMA best PF" talk is merely a result of MANY of the games best...
Yeah, it's quite laughable for anyone to think that LMA is better than Bosh.
But he's also stood there flat on his feet and watch player shorter than him grab several rebounds. Or stood there and watched as guys put the ball...
I never should have complimented LMA's rebounding. Flash in the pan...
And it appears that LMA is guarding Mike Miller a lot of the time. Or is my game feed just too fuzzy?
Way to contest that layup, LMA...
Because he's our designated cupcake. ;)
We will not score 40 in the half.
Something else Hickson does that LMA doesn't: he comes to the ball rather than waiting for the ball to get to him.

Exactly. Making LBJ shoot jumpers is very good defense - even if he makes those jumpers.
Freeland's rebounding positioning has impressed me a few times. He seems like a smart player.
Meanwhile, LMA is looking atrocious on defense.
Because he's our best bench player?
Agreed. Also, LMA shouldn't shoot every jump shot just because he's open. But I HAVE noticed him grab some meaningful rebounds already - impressed!
