According to PBPstats, LeBron went 23 of 35 on rim FGs. Since he went 32 of 90 overall in the series, that means that he shot 9 of 55 on shots that weren’t at the rim. Four of those were threes, so that is an effective FG% of 20% on shots that weren’t at the rim, in the 2007 Finals. Genuinely just absolutely awful. And the Spurs were giving him those shots, rather than them being shots with people draped all over him. The Spurs exposed an absolutely gaping flaw in LeBron’s game. He never entirely fixed it, though this was probably the problem at its worst.
