LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I definitely think the Dwight Howard comparison someone made earlier might be the best one in regards to LeBron and his back. Still gonna be really really good, but no where near his peak.
Not sure if you've watched Dwight Howard this year, but he's so far beyond his peak right now it's scary.
 
That Dwight Howard comparison is terrible. Once Dwight's athleticism starts to fade, he's absolutely screwed. No fundamentals. LeBron on the other hand has the ability to play below the rim.

Ironically we havent seen him post up once this season
 
Lebron James and Kyrie Irving had a heated selfie exchange before Tuesday's loss to Portland

When Kevin Love realized he had been cropped out of the picture, he left the arena without speaking to the media.

Major turmoil going on within our team right now...:chuckle:

He's posted up a fair amount

The reason he nearly improved back to his Orlando levels last year was his quick decision making in the post

Dribbling the ball 20 times to try and back down a player may look more impressive but it's simply better to get lower position immediately and either take a shot or pass it out.

Griffin and Howard became levels more effective once they quit trying to be Hakeem and just kept it simple and quick
 
Make him the PG: he's the only guy who seems to get other people shots in places where they are comfortable.

Worked great against a lackluster Denver defense but I think he can be great at this going forward. He's more athletic then Magic even if he plays at the diminshed level right now and his jumper has become great. He brings up the ball quick and has a great feel for where his teammates like the ball. Just like Magic his height allows him to look over the defense and have passing angles that defenses don't normally expect from smaller players.
 
James won the game down the stretch. Taught D-Wait and Irving a little bit down the stretch also.
 
Great floor game by Lebron tonight.

He still isn't quite there with his explosion at the rim but he seems to have adjusted and at least is finishing his layups with strength. His energy level on D looked better to.

Also his P&R game with Love was nasty. Brought back memories of how Lebron used to close games out in the P&R back in the day...

They seem to be keeping the Lebron/Love PnR as the Ace up their sleeve. Almost like they don't want other teams getting much tape on it. I wonder if Blatt figures that they should work on improving areas on other aspects as the Lebron and Love should be able to make it work whenever they really need it.

Was thinking the same thing, almost as it it's too easy.

Please no, LeBrons shooting seems to be improving as he ages. Magic never had a 3 ball but he averaged 12+ assit many seasons. LeBron is around 7. No reason for LeBron to change his game
