“Bron is a below-average defender” Leaked scouting report from Nick Nurse and Raptors reveals what they truly think of LeBron James 

During LeBron James’ stint with Cleveland Cavaliers, there was a brief period where he always had the upper hand individually over the entire Canada based Toronto Raptors. Being one of the most complete players on either ends of the court, LeBron is undoubtedly the most complete player of all-time. However, in 2018 Nick Nurse and Raptors though otherwise.

Since his arrival in the league in 2003, LeBron James’ physique and basketball acumen has helped him adjust his game-style as per the roster availability in his team. Especially during his second stint with the Cavs, many believe that Raptors fans used to miss their home games, believing the King is about to blow them off. But the same wasn’t believed by Nick Nurse and the team itself, at least according to a leaked scouting report.

Is LeBron James an average defender? 

There are no two ways in stating that LeBron James is a dynamic player who is a generational talent. His ability to do anything on the court has regularly put fear in the hearts of his opponents.

On the same note, to turn back the pages of history, back in 2018, the Toronto Raptors scouted LeBron James before a match. Their results suggested many things, but what stood out was their assessment of his defense. 

Believe it or not, nick nurse has huge respect for the 37-year-old playmaker, knowing that he has caused enough damage to his team during his period of play in the Eastern Conference.

One has to assume that this particular scouting report was put down the toilet by the Toronto Raptors, especially after knowing what LeBron James did to them in the playoffs. Having made his way to the LA Lakers, the Raptors did enjoy huge success over the purple and gold, comprising of the King. Having delivered a massive thrashing to the Lakers at their home in the previous season, will the Raptors be able to continue in keeping LeBron’ Lakers at bay from the win column? Remains to be seen.
