(LOCK THREAD) The LeBron James- 23-24 NBA Thread - 40K POINTS+(Part 1)(NO INSULTING)

Anybody seen DLo?

[Colbinii]

Zion is so freaking good. His burst is incredible at his size and strength.

[nzahir]

Lebron sits and we blow the lead....just horrible stuff

AD needs to step up

DLO is a very up and down player sigh, took a bad 3 and then just missed a great look

[Greatness]

He's been great overall but man he's missed a handful of easy layups

[nzahir]

Oof ya the 1st one was easy, should have actually lobbed it even to Hayes

2nd one though looked like he got fouled or stumbled when he blew past the defense and was off balance

Obviously this is an older Lebron, so some more inconsistency. Younger Bron is just dunking these

[toodles23]

This is where his diminished athleticism really shows. In his prime he's dunking most of those.

At least the stats for the play-in don't really count for anything

[IG2]

Just being a dumbass trying to be all cute with his right hand when he can easily make the lefty layup. This has been a disease ever since he played with Talen Horton Tucker who just refused to use his left too.

[IG2]

LeBron constantly going iso 30 feet from the basket and dribbling most of the clock away is low % offense. Even more so at 39. I've never been that enamored by his basketball IQ. Compared to other offensive greats he's always been slow to make adjustments.

[nzahir]

Ok we need to get focused and lock in

Bron needs to attack or Reaves

Or run that Reaves and Bron pick and roll

Pels shooting well rn, hopefully thats all of it. Didnt weather it well

[IG2]

It just goes to show what a massive momentum changer missed layups are. LeBron missed those 2 bunnies in a row and it has been a different game since.

We also had a decen lead and Bron sat and it fell apart

Omg zion hurt...

[RRR3]

Ham has not run any offense this whole fourth. He’s abandoned it competely. Won’t call timeouts either. I have NEVER seen a worse coach.

[NbaAllDay]

The meme take is Kobe fans would say Kobe is just being a killer going 0-6 in the last willing the team to win.

But yeah Lebron forcing in iso when he is cold ain't it.

[NbaAllDay]

Then he makes that shot ok

[nzahir]

Big shot by Dlo....

And after a great steal in transition that may have saved the game. For sure thought we were going down 2-3 there

Those are the types of shots he needs to be taking (and making)

[The Master]

Russell MVP today, promising sign.

[RRR3]

Taurean Prince in guarding CJ lmfao. Ham is the worst ever. The worst EVER.

[Fadeaway_J]

The offensive process in this fourth quarter has been catastrophic.

The problem isn't LeBron forcing the issue. Wish he did it more, in fact. Just be quick with it though. Dribbling the clock out 30 feet away possession after possession is some seriously low % offense and it's been a career-long issue for him when the momentum has swung. He doesn't just play on instincts or quickly try to get something going. You ask me the biggest difference between MJ and LeBron, that's it right there. MJ wasn't an overthinker.

LeBron has been catastrophic, what the f..k is that.
