LeBron was pretty ty in the Bulls series when he actually had Kyrie. Him getting beat by Iggy on a couple of occasion when he's carrying a bunch of corpse is nothing extraordinary. Iggy didn't defend Bron any better than Jimmy Butler who had to shoulder the scoring load on the other end.
Kawhi had Bron huffing & puffing in 2014 after he had his way against an All-NBA 1st team defender (Paul George) along w/ having Bosh/Wade/Ray Allen on his squad. He got his points but a bunch of them came in flurries or after the game was essentially over, he never really took over a game. Kawhi also wasn't being guarded by a center or dared to make open 3s. Kawhi matched LeBron in the final 3 games meanwhile LeBron got MVP votes in 2015 despite losing the final 3 games. Based on the Iggy logic, Pippen in 91 should have won the MVP b/c he was guarding Magic despite Jordan being the best player & putting up better numbers. (Iggy is a poorman's Pippen)
