LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
On that last J in G4, he shot it with a high arc. Most of his jumpers are flatter than usual. Hope he records the feel of that last shot.
Right on, that was an amazing arc he got compared to his earlier line drives that probably had Herb Score flinching in his grave.
 
NBA Y2K15 Recreates LeBron's Game 4 winning shot. Neat. Epic.

One thing I don't understand is why he has to take so many jumpers when He's struggling, if the shots are not falling go to the rim and attack the paint, worked for him pretty well in game 2, now he is falling in love with the jumper again and he's not very efficient unfortunately.

Would love to see more of the aggressive game 2 bron Make a quick comeback

Because it takes a lot of energy and he gets tired quickly. He knows it is essential for him to just stay on the court because with him off the floor, it gives the Bulls a mental advantage. So, he conserves himself by taking those stupid jumpers.

I would really like Blatt to use LeBron as a decoy for some phases in the game and rest him that way. Because just his sheer presence on the floor would affect the Bulls!
 
I think LeBron needs to trust his teammates more. he's going away from what his identity has been his whole life. He's got a high basketball IQ. he should be able to figure out a way to take 5 extra shots a game without it meaning that he completely forgets how to play team oriented offensive basketball. He's got his hand in everything which has some advantages but it also makes our offensive gameplan too easy to read and counter.

I'd like to see more lob attempts to Mozgov and TT and get Delly some catch and shoot 3 point attempts.

Also let Delly run the point some and facilitate and get LeBron some catch and shoot 3s and 2s in rhythm...he will hit those at a higher clip.

I think some of you guys forget that LeBron is indeed human. The floor spacing is pretty shot without Love, Kyrie is playing at maybe 35%, Shumpert is hurt, our best two guys after Bron have been non-shooters (Mozgov, TT), and even LeBron is beat up. He had a poor game for his standards Sunday. But some you expect to him to keep driving to the rim like he doesn't get tired.

I agree with you, people forget that he feeds of other players, if they can't move he is forced to dribble, I really hope Kyrie can get well soon and JR not be such a loose canon, if JR can stick around for 35+ without getting a technical foul we can use him to space out the game and reduce the strain on Kyrie, I believe he can give us 20+ minute games, but the 40+ is killing him.
 
Posting in the LBJ thread to help him break out of his slump... Can I get 40 likes for 40 points tonight?

Edit: Noon update. 15 likes?! That's it?! We need more than 15 points tonight!! Thanks to all that have already liked.

Edit: 5pm, 19 likes. Getting there.... Hopefully someone in the JR thread is getting 30

Edit: game time. 23 likes for #23. Has to be a good sign.

The lack of transition points is hurting LeBron's game as well.

He thrived off of it in Miami. That would be the turning point for him to get his confidence going and take over the game. Him and Wade had that fast break connection that would spark a lot of their runs.

Sadly, once again we're seeing how the loss of Kevin Love hurts us. LeBron is having to do more rebounding instead of leaking out on the fast break. Kevin Love is the best outlet passer in the game and would get easy baskets for LeBron.

Just another reason to hate Kelly OlyF*ck

This is true but even with Love, LeBron never looked as dominant on the break as he did in Miami. I'm hoping with time Kyrie and LeBron can develop chemistry on the fast break. LeBron was good for 10-12 points on the break in Miami. I'd like to see him get back to that.
