I forgot how did Ron Artest of Shane Battier do guarding Lebron back in the day?

Didn't have Jordan stooping LeBron in mind. Just thought it will be interesting matchup.

Jordan couldn't physically deal with Magic, I don't see how it would be interesting.
If Jordan tries he will get ground up.

if Lebron's team didn't have a Center on it who needed Hakeem's full time attention... I'd sic Hakeem on him in the half-court, cos I think he'd make Lebron's life miserable, haha. Hakeem defends very well the areas that Lebron likes and the things he used to favor doing at his peak too (i.e., before he started jacking up more threes).
