The Lebron Thread (2015-16 Pt. 3)

16pts at half.

Why am I not confident he can get to 30 if needed?

What is the thought process here with the continued Love postups?

Also, Cleveland is the weakest defensive team Toronto has faced in the postseason. We already knew that from the DRTGs, but that has been made qualitatively evident in this series.

Love is an awful basketball player if he isn't making his jumpshots (which he usually isn't). What does he do well on the basketball court?

He made a three!

Didn't look very confident shooting it but at least it went in.

And yeah, when Love isn't scoring, he's pretty much useless aside from spacing the floor. Not really new news.

lmao Kyrie insistent on avoiding Lebron finishes on the break

THAT WAS A **** PRACTICE SHOT WTF LEBRON

That play does not make up for all the times you didn't take a wide open 3, LeBron

Richard Jefferson has actually been pretty damn good in the playoffs in his limited minutes.

And Channing Frye has been a revelation. Dude has been flat out better than Love in the playoffs when he's actually on the floor. Not only does he provide better shooting, but he can actually play a little bit of defense.

Kyrie sits, Lebron controls/screens, ball moves and the lead vanishes.

Credit him for making some tough shots, but this team doesn't need tough shots - a well executed 1-Lebron P&R gets easy/high EV shots every time, but they're never well executed with Irving.

LeBron James has made Channing frye a better player next to him than love. If you told someone this in 2014 they'd lose their mind

lol offense going off now

If Lue puts Irving/Love back in...

Well he has sat love before in the whole forth during these playoffs so I don't think he has robotic style sub patterns

Lol they run the exact same play 5 straight times, and only the Delly floater was a bad look

GSP · Post #335 » by **GSP** » Tue May 24, 2016 2:38 am

Channing Frye just Goats this offense

kayess · Post #336 » by **kayess** » Tue May 24, 2016 2:39 am

Imagine what he could do with better versions of these players

Kyrie does NOT make that pass to Frye (although I think he might've found LeBron downlow)

SideshowBob · Post #337 » by **SideshowBob** » Tue May 24, 2016 2:52 am

I'll live with that

GSP · Post #338 » by **GSP** » Tue May 24, 2016 2:55 am

11/11 from the field before Kyrie got back in, no turnovers

Ball movement went to hell, nearly all the shots have been contested since, turnovers and fouls galore. Raps trapping them easily on the perimeter, Lebron has to initiate in worse spaces to make room for Kyries spots to score

IG2 · Post #339 » by **IG2** » Tue May 24, 2016 2:55 am

Ummm, why did LeBron suddenly start playing with his back to the basket from the left block? He can't do anything from there besides pass.

I know it's still a real longshot but with how the series is going if the cavs lost how would it impact your opinion Of 16 James?
