    Brilliant is a stretch, but he can be very effective in the proper circumstance. He's a guy who understands what his role is and generally doesn't try to do much outside of that. Even when he's not doing much in terms of production, he doesn't hurt the team by trying to do more than his ability allows.

    Hence, my usage of the phrase "could have." I'm still giving LeBron props for a great play.

    And I wasn't not giving him credit, nor was I disagreeing with anything you said. I was just expanding on your point about the difference Hibbert could have made.

    Still I am not really into comparing active athletes to retired athletes now once Lebron retires well then I will be interested.

    It depends on how close Hibbert was guarding Bosh and how much attention he was playing they are coming from opposite sides and Lebron is faster would have been close that is for sure. Really though it boils down to Paul George giving Lebron the lane.

    Wade is better than Curry, so I have no issue with it.
