Doncic was criticized by the seven-time champion: Defense is the biggest shortcoming and it is difficult to reach the height of Jordan James Kobe

On September 2, the NBA entered the offseason. Lakers star Doncic is currently playing in the European Cup. He has recently encountered criticism from the famous NBA seven-time champion Robert Horry, who believes that Doncic has no defense, which has led to him not being the top player.

As we all know, Doncic has always been very talented on the offensive end. He was elected as the league's scoring champion in the 2023-24 season, and his average score per game has been high for many years. However, at the same time, Doncic's performance on the defensive end has been criticized, which is one of the reasons why he was eventually given up by the Mavericks.

In response, NBA seven-time champion Robert Horry said on the show that he believes that although Doncic has achieved many achievements, Doncic will never become one of the top players in NBA history. Horry said: "Doncic's defense is his biggest weakness, and he will never enter the top five. I like his style of play because I am a traditional player. But for me, you have to be able to play a role on the defensive end. I appreciate Doncic's performance, but when you look at Jordan, Kobe, Olajuwon, Duncan, and others, each of them is a player who is excellent on both sides of the offense and defense, and that's basketball."

Horry continued: "Think of Kobe and Jordan, they are excellent on the defensive end. That's why they are considered the greatest players in history. Look at James, he is also very good on the defensive end. That's why you can get into that top ranks when you can do it on both sides of the offense and defense."
