I never said the nicca sucks. He's a HOF player. His game is ugly as f*ck and not appealing to me at all though. Nothing about that niccas offensive game aside from his passing looks skillful at all. From his handle to his footwork to his jumpshot...shyt is all :scust:


Bron needs to put the cleats on, He'd look the part then. I can't stand to watch this Negus play Basketball. He stay trying to run people over :camby:

baby, that was the old me
I've been trying to tell people it's his game that I don't like. Dude still plays like he did coming out of High School. He has refused to work on his game. I can't respect that :snoop:

Lebron has had many years where he has the shot ball very well and is a streak shooter.

His post game has developed tremendously since 2012. And his pull-up or turnaround elbow J is something he has been go to a la Pierce like

He's become an excellent cutter and Is now unstoppable as the roll man.

He the alpha on every squad he been on since high school, so there wasn't anyone with a wing high enough to take him under and drive home the importance of working on those.

He was at his best shooting wise when he was practicing with Ray Allen, every other version has been ugly.

The Truth
anytime he get's the basketball 10 feet and in he has to be more assertive nad look for his shot. to many times has smaller defender switched to him and he's trying to pass instead of dribble dribble shot or fade. Plus he's getting ripped/stripped way to much now. I get iggy is a nice defender but your still bigger and stronger you should be able to back him down in the lane and not turn and face
Dude cant really drive in unless he has a head of steam and barrelling into the paint with a line drive.

Dude has damn near no handle or post moves... thats why i think he's passing.

he does have a post game just doesnt want the wear and tear of posting up
Older players like Kobe, Jordan, and even Wade moved to the post game as they got older and their bodies got even MORE injury prone.

Jordan was 40+ posting up cats younger than him

The bigger you are, the easier. Dude is like 6'9, 270lbs, there's no wear and tear from posting up Steph. Can't be as much as him barrelling into the paint every other play.

Drives in and instead of taking the contact he passes for low percentage 3

Scust

People actually think that this is championship style of play. Playing like he does, doesn't get anyone else a layup or dunk but a 3. Too difficult of a shot.
LeBron demands that he gets the layups and dunks while he passes to "my shooters". :stopitslime:

Well if that is the case he's got to score way more than 25pts on 40% shooting

Instead the media will criticize Kyrie Irving telling him to pass more, when really they should be criticizing the game of LeBron James :francis:
