🤦🏾‍♂️....."Thats not a chase down block" -Skip Bayless

[@Abbad1579]

Definitely the greatest block ever. IDK about the best defensive play ever, but it’s definitely debatable.

[@leultrainstinct406]

It’s the greatest defensive play ever. The hustle. He literally ran from the other side of the court. The iq. He had to prepare for a regular up and under and a reverse, so he had both hands up at the same time. He also had to time it perfectly otherwise I’d be a foul or a goaltend. And ofc the circumstances. Game 7, came back from 3-1 deficit. 4 mins where both teams went scoreless, and if they scored they’d get all the momentum. That single play gave them the momentum for kyrie’s shot. Easily the greatest defensive play of all time.

[@leultrainstinct406]

Bird’s was nice, but it didn’t have the magnitude or the effort that the block did

[@rationallearner]

This is the greatest defensive play simply because there wasn't a margin of error. Few milliseconds late it would have been a goal tend.

@@jordanwilson3120 If Jordan misses the Bulls have 48 more minutes to secure the championship, but if LeBron doesn't block that shot the Warriors take the lead and it's 110 seconds away from a literal game over. Jordan's play won them the game, but it was nowhere near as crucial to that series as the block was.

[@ChrisBurns24]

skip literally looks confused when shannon is talking and it cracks me up. LOL. So delusional, cant believe he said JR is the reason why

[@donaldwoods3864]

According to Skip, J.R. made another great defensive play when he kept Cleveland Cavs, from winning game 1, against that same Golden State team! In addition, Skip, always says, KD outplayed LeBron, well, didn't LeBron have 51 pts.? KD, must've had 52, ...let me go and check the box scores.......

[@wrldgaming4558]

I would argue Kevin Love has a case for one of the best defensive plays in history with him locking up Curry on the final possession

[@camydestine2028]

That’s what I’m SAYING. The most OBVIOUS one

[@malikcook9131]

Yeah, to me it was greater, but lebrons block was definitely great

[@CatoProduction]

U can’t really compare a steal to a block. A block will always be a better defensive play than a steal. A block means that u took away your opponents opportunity to score, a steal means u took the possession away from the opponent.

[@Gubs2]

@@CatoProduction that means that a steal is better, the offense can maintain possession after a block , a steal ends the possession

[@lawrencejahanfar2957]

Both plays are equally great, I give the edge to Bron only because of game 7, 3-1 comeback, first chip for Cleveland in 50 years unanimous MVP etc etc. Both plays in isolation I’ll give it to Mike as he made the shot as well but in terms of the meaning behind it, that makes Lebrons greater

[@nhojnhoj6485]

Lebron's block was amazing. But Kyrie made the game winning shot so it was 50% Lebron and 50% Kyrie. MJ had to throw his team on his shoulders having to steal the ball and come back and make the Final shot which was even more amazing because he had to make the most important defensive and offensive play in the last seconds for his team to win. If you want to talk only about the better defensive play, I'll give it to Lebron, that block was amazing. Overall better play at the end of a game, MJ on defense and offense.

[@two-literbowls5195]

Skip didnt give a single reason why it isnt the greatest defensive play, he just didnt want to give the credit to Lebron lmao
