If he didn't force the cavs to sign TT and JR to those contracts he would have more help:wow: And the talent is there just a lack of system. Thats on Lue for not implementing one or allowing bron to undermine him.
Everyone knew those were awful contracts too and he forced the issue.

The biggest problem is the Cavs have no real system to rely on. We usually only run plays to get open shots for Korver.

Everything else is just watching LeBron dribble, get open in the corner, or occasionally cut to the hoop. No constant motion and not many designed plays from what I can tell.

For a few possessions in game 5 the cavs were whipping the ball to the open man, cutting, setting screens, all that good shyt. They got easy buckets, and then it just stopped for no reason. We needed a buzzer beater to win.

It’s easy to blame Lue, and he deserves plenty of blame because he clearly hasn’t implemented a system, but I feel like LeBron prefers it this way sometimes.

I think we will win game 7 but holy shyt it’s looking rough after that. You never know what can happen though.

We’ll always have 2016 :manny:

Bron is a little like Russ: great player with boundless energy but they don't always make those around them better.

Cavs need help but LeBron has a way of mitigating the strengths of other players as they adjust to playing in a way that allows him to shine. Think he'd be better as either a pass first PG or a Kobe/Jordan-ish true scoring guard. Bron and Russ wanna be Magic and Michael at the same time. That's too much for anyone even Bron.

I think over playing Bron minutes wise makes him slow down the game too much and it actually hurts the team.
