re: Modern NBA defenses are so tough

The NBA back then, had absolutely nobody with the size and athleticism of Lebron James...maybe Karl Malone...and he was a post player. Go look at Michael Jordan and who guarded him in the NBA playoffs...Dan Majerle? Jeff Hornacek? Detlef Schrimpf? Craig Ehlo???? Old arse Clyde Drexler!!! Old arse James Worthy!!! Now look at who Lebron had to go up against. The defending champions Pistons, dynasty Spurs and Warriors!! Jordan didn't face a team even close to those teams. That is not debatable.
Lebron James would have scored 60+ on all of those players...LeBron is the greatest basketball player the world has ever seen. The FACT that Lebron is still dominating the league at 39 years old!! GOAT!!

I'll just say this again. Lebron really doesn't belong in this conversation. His apex was right at the beginning of this neo-modern era. His title against the Warriors (when he was exiting his prime at best) was the last stand against the modern NBA.
When everyone started copying the Warriors, this era began. That was outside of Lebron's prime and he's an old man these days. The portion of his career that gives him an argument in the GOAT discussion occurred prior to this era.
