Yeah Olympic basketball where the vast majority of starters on the better teams are NBA or Euroleague players. You know the Olympics that many on this board thought that we would lose like the previous olympics. Yeah the players are terrible.
Saying that a person cant guard a particular position and using Dwayne Wade as an example of the type of player at that position seems a little excessive doesnt it? Does that mean every guard in the NBA during the late 80's and 90's couldnt play defense because they couldnt seem to cover Micheal Jordan?
If you happen to go to a Cavs game please note that Lebron is bigger than Ben Wallace and I am doubting that Wallace has shrunk much other than his hair.
Your contentions are fairly ludicrous. But keep digging. Maybe next you'll tell me that Lebron couldnt guard Jerry West or Bob Cousy or George Mikan or Danny Ainge or Connie Hawkins or Herman the helicopter or Trevor Ariza or Wes Unseld or Elvin hayes because he is 6"8 and 250 and is either too slow or too weak or too tall or too short to mess with them.
