It took an epic collapse by GSW, but this team won't win with the way they play defense. I think the 49ers defense was better last year.

In your opinion, what are the defining moments of LeBron's career to this point?
The morning show on 95.7 was talking about this yesterday when they were comparing LBJ to Jordan. I will preface this by saying, I dont think comparing the two is far with Bron still having a chunk of his career left, but the argument was that Jordan had many career defining moments, and Bron really hasnt had much yet. So I was curious as a real LBJ fan, what do you think his career defining moments are.

You're not talking to me but me personally I think the following:
- performance vs DET where he just completely took over in DET and then closed them out in CLE the next game to go to the Finals
- his 45 point game IN Boston down 3-2 to even the series in the 2012 ECF (ultimately advanced to get his first ring)
- all around assault on OKC to win his 1st ring
- his 4th QTR performance vs SA in game 6 in 2013 that put Allen in position to attempt and hit a game winner. 16 or 19 points being down double digits
- his complete performance in game 7 with the game sealing jumper over Leonard to go back to back
- his entire series in 2015 NBA Finals. Those numbers vs that team were absurd
- back to back 40 point games in game 5 and 6 last year and then a triple double in game 7 to be the first player to ever lead both teams in every category
- block on Iggy in game 7
- beating a 73 win team, coming from down 3-1 and getting CLE their first title
Off the top of my head

Appreciate the response, but I should have elaborated.
The conversation was about singular plays or moments. So over half of this list would not qualify. Sorry for not being clear.

When I think of "career defining" I think of games in the playoffs. Big games. Jordan's flu game for example. Or Bron's Boston playoff performance. Hard to narrow basketball down to single plays unless they are game winning buzzer beaters....
Originally posted by SteveWallacesHelmet:For sure. Games like Bron's game 6 against Boston or Jordan's flu game can be career defining moments....I can get behind that.
But some of the things on Sims list I cannot get behind as "moments." (i.e. "all around assault on OKC to win his 1st ring"....because that is NOT a moment....or "his 4th QTR performance vs SA in game 6 in 2013 that put Allen in position to attempt and hit a game winner. 16 or 19 points being down double digits" because NO ONE remembers any of that. People only remember Ray Allen's shot, because THAT was the moment of that series)

i can't really remember a wow moment like Jordans moments. For some reason all i can picture when thinking about LBJ is flopping and playing RB on the way to the hoop

Similar to when I think about the Warriors current run all I can picture is offensive lineman blocking defenders to get Curry/Thompson open. Also I picture Draymond Green kicking a bunch of people.

Originally posted by Leathaface:Game sealer vs SA in 2013 game 7 and the game 7 block on Iguodala are a few. I think the game 6 block on Curry and the staredown was another. Earlier in his career the game winner vs Orlando. Barrage of jumpers @ Detroit. Game 6 @ Boston the put back dunk in the 1st quarter.
