that second pass was lowkey impressive

yeah, it was low-key impressive. like a chick with double-e's low-key has big t*ts. :francis: everything is low-key now...i dunno if y'all are retarded or just stuck in your slang. :mjlol:

and yeah, that was a set play...still. you don't design that play without someone who can make that pass.

best passer ever though? lebron is great but come on...relax.

you just made me not feel that 2nd video after initially being blown away by it

it was an obvious overly practiced play, dunleavy cuts before lebron even spins
this is basically how basketball is supposed to be played
get it to the shooter fast and its on him to knock it down

Breh, even in that set play, that's an amazingly hard pass to time, get off, and get it to person cutting in rhythm AND in their pocket especially with that spin.

People really underestimate Lebron's timing, strength, and ability to make those passes into perfect shooting pockets while in rhythm with a player.

Both of those passes are amazing on almost every single level. CP3 and Magic are probably GOAT passers too.

For all his props he gets Bron still doesn't get the respect he deserves as the elite passer that he is. Not to many point guards in the NBA could make those passes that he made.

Rondo made passes like that all the time with the celtics . When a team is in sync and running plays to perfection the point guard job is easy. Lebron has. Good team around him so expect passes like that....


but amazing would be if he did it with his left hand with his back facing dunleavy.:manny:

I agree though, whats actually amazing is they say hes really left handed but uses his right ... I'm left handed and I would never in my life be able to spin ...English on the ball ... and whip it perfectly at that timing ... I think Lebron is one of the greatest assist men with vision but this was just a good play in my opinion ... Dunleavy is basically putting his career on the line because he HAS to get to the corner regardless of what happens, as fast as he can. Regardless of what happens he gets the blame if the play goes wrong .. worst that could happen for Lebron is someone kicking the ball out of bounds

Dunleavy is a new edition to that team and Rondo has great passing instincts too.

That pass is extremely hard to make. You're completely underselling that he couldn't even begin to fire that pass before he saw Dunleavy cut to that spot. Not only that but he threw it hard enough that no one but Dunleavy could react, with enough precision to know where it needed to land BEFORE the spin was applied, put enough spin to dissipate the strength used so that it was easy to gather, and perfectly placed with Dunleavey's moment so that by the time he stopped, he didn't have to do anything but follow through.

The nuances of that pass and that decision making plus passing instincts is absurd. Making great passes isn't just about creativity, vision, and the other player making the shot. It's in the fundamental execution of proper passing mechanics that maximizes both efficiency, unpredictability, and ease of catching.

He's not eevn the best passer in the league, let alone all time. Cp3 is better and less turnover prone.

Lebron is a 6'8" forward with a scoring title, a DPOY runner-up finish, and averaged 11 boards/game over the last four Finals, but haters are reduced to insisting that his passing skills aren't quite as good as the top-passing PG of the last decade.

:wow:
