Was it the first team an opponent so completely ignored him?

Plus he'd already hit some shots earlier... once he the shots start going down for him, they often keep going down. He's been out of sorts all season, and I don't have my hopes up, but it would be nice if we could get Z consistently delivering on those pick & pops.

I wouldn't say that he's been out of sorts all season. Actually, he was kinda off to begin the season but has been hitting his shots ever since he started those games when Shaq was down. Very few bigs want to run out and contest him on those especially since most are just terrified ( and incapable) of keeping LeBron out of the lane without big help.

Z's eFG on jump shots is still way down from last year, and often the opposing big will least meet him half way. Hawes was planted in the paint.

Nice to see LeBron shut Evans down, and great to see Big Z for 3 x 3.
