On Tuesday, LeBron James’ defensive woes against Steph Curry and the Warriors were summed up towards the end of the first half. Curry bamboozled James with a pump fake on the 3-point line and drove to the rim. After the Lakers star failed to track back and attempt to stop his rival’s attempt, LA’s play-by-play announcer Bill McDonald mocked the four-time MVP’s effort.

“Steph, at the rim, as he went right around LeBron, who was there like a traffic cone,” McDonald said.

Here’s the video for this play:

James was 3 of 6 from the floor in the first half, scoring six points. He had two rebounds and four assists, but those came with three turnovers. He was also a team worse -13.

Unlike his first two games, the 39-year-old didn’t seem as engaged, especially defensively. He was often getting beaten on the boards and the perimeter. James’ lack of sharpness on offense only amplified his struggles.
