LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
You confused me.

Did he say "you can't stop me" or "you can't stop Curry"? Or both?

I see nothing wrong with our superstar having the confidence to say "you can't stop me" or "I gave them the blueprint". How does that disrespect Blatt?

What the hell are you talking about?
he said both, and maybe because i know how good Blatt is its difficult for me to hear anything about the game plan from someone who is not Blatt, even if its Lebron.

I think you misunderstood his words.

He did not diminish or disrespect Blatt.

Edit: And you're not the only one who knows how good Blatt is ffs.

nothing wrong with him having confidence, but when you are talking to the media especially as the leader of the team you dont say stuff like "you cant stop curry" at least you never see blatt and kyrie say this kind of stuff.
how does that help the team and the people that need to play against him hearing lebron say " you cant stop curry" that is just simple logic to me but maybe im wrong.

He said the same thing in regards to Kevin Durant in the 2012 finals.

He said the same thing in regards to Derrick Rose in the 2011 ECF.

It didnt stop him from outperforming both and winning the series.

at least get the quote right.

Reporter: "How do you stop Curry?"
LeBron: "The same way you stop me, you can't"

It might have been "slow down" instead of "stop".

What do you want him to do, tell them our game plan so the other team hears it? Give the other team something for their bulletin board?
 
What is this referencing?

Heck with Lebron's outside shot. GS is a team built for Lebron to feast in the paint. They have only one rim protector in Bogut that plays limited mins because of foul trouble and durability and they have not one perimeter defender that can even slow Lebron down.
 
LeBron has never been a natural jumpshooter. His shot has always been flat. He had more success with it when he was younger because of 2 reasons:

- his elevation when shooting was much higher then. He can't elevate all the time now. Elevation was fundamental to his shot, because of the flatness. Look at Shump, he's not a natural jumpshooter either and he has to elevate a lot for precision.

- he was much thinner before. It helps the mechanics. His build up now is completely different, and muscular guys almost always struggle shooting.

So I don't see him shooting well for the next few years. He'll have to lose muscle if he wants to improve it, but he'll lose ability to post up. It's a 2 way sword.

He needs to go to the fade away more often...I think he shoots a higher percentage with that shot
 
Also want to say. Let's say Lebron pulls some magic type shit and shoots 40% from 3. That most likely changes how Golden State is planning to guard him 100%
 
LeBron has been using the 3pt shot as a way to take a break and dribble for 20 seconds and shoot a contested 3 more than anything else this postseason. If Kyrie is decently healthy it won't put as much pressure on LeBron and his shooting will go up. Also, LeBron is a decent spot up shooter and was pretty damn good in Miami, and if Kyrie can get him the ball in those situations, his shooting will go up
