Lebrons decreased efficiency explained........No more Sposystem, cant handle isos

[SpursFanSinceNovember2017]

Tom Haberstroh has figured out why LeBron James is struggling by his standards. So far this postseason, he is averaging 11 isolation plays per game, which is the equal to his last two playoffs combined.

BetaBran needs heavy screens and team help he cant iso and do it himself like KD/Kobe/MJ/CP/Wade

LeBron's best scoring years were those without floor spacers

Obviously losing love hurts but LeBron does seem a little bit slower and less aggressive. He is 30 years old so we will see if he finds a way to get a bunch of easy buckets like he did with the Heats

LeBron flipping the switch and dropping 35 today

When he could blow by and finish at the rim at will..

Now his handles are shaky, slower and he isnt finishing as well..

But he's still the best player in the league though...When ppl were saying Kobe(few yrs ago) was the best, those same stat guys were pulling PER to show that Lebron was the best. All of a sudden PER doesn't matter anymore...

Heat fans always tell us Spo is a terrible coach.

PER became the go to stat when bean was winning rings and bron was failing to meet expectations in 08-10

Why are folks surprised with this. Go look at lebron iso plays his first year in Miami. The offense was a mess. The same as the offense is in Cleveland. It took a year for that heat offense to look decent and have high assist numbers.

Go look at the heats team assist numbers from year 1 to year 2.

Everybody talks about him "declining", but after that 8 game hiatus he took, he was just fine athletically, but his efficiency remained around 50%. The real difference is Cleveland, unlike 12-14 Heat, have no real offensive system in place. LeBron has to work a lot harder to create shots for himself now.

Bron will bounce back tonight but I think Kyrie struggles tonight

 

[Nintendough]

Bronze is on that road to Shaw Kemp status

 

[Leasy]

Tell him to learn how to shoot. Stop taking HGH when you can't shoot brehs

 

[beenz]

himself can't win a ship on all ISO's alone.

does age really take away your handles like that?
