    EG with thicc defense. People were laughing (on twitter) saying that EG couldn't guard Lebron. EG is still underrated defensively.

    My strategy would be to attack Lebron on defense much like they do Curry. He’s too slow to stay in front of Westbrook, Harden, and Gordon. He’s going to get gassed.
