They only post him up when they play small with Ad at the 5.

Seems like they havent gone to it if Dwight is there

Despite decent numbers I really don't like how LeBron played. It doesn't feel like he was controlling the flow of the game at all. Lot of dribbling out the shot clock and settling for long jumpers.

Missed the first half but ut doesnt look like were doing too bad lol, I saw bron and AD ran the pick and rill a bit more even tho ads been not getting much advantage from it

If there's no schematic answer to stopping them from good looks, the Lakers might get past the Nuggets this year but they're gonna get cooked from next year on. Jamal Murray is giving me Derrick Rose vibes in terms of how unstoppable he seems.

Honestly just shoring up on shooters in the offseason would fill in alot of the holes. Theyd be up double digits easy if a few open shots went in

Also there is still the bubble factor for a team like Denver. We'll have to see if theyre this good in the playoffs under a normal setting with travel, crowds, road games etc

LeBron seems so passive. Is he over-correcting from the last game and saving all his effort for the 4th?

Man I thought I was a pessimist until I started reading these threads :lol:

LeBron's been good defending at the rim this game. Lots of good rotations and results.

Any one noticed LeBron grabbing his groin? He did that when he stumbled on Murray’s foot in game 3, after he got kneed in his left leg this game, and again now after that pass to Dwight in transition.

lots of 20 IQ moments by LeBron tonight

The Lakers look off Dwight too much. He had great position on Jokic there

That 3 from Lebron makes no sense.

Just bails out the defense.

they've been doing that the entire season

it's like they took that "I"m just here to defend and rebound" from the beginning of the season completely literally

It's been on my mind that his groin might be flaring up. Might just be a thing now for the rest of his career.

Dwight should be focusing on lobs and offensive boards.

He was in deep but i still wouldnt trust him in the post. Just no skill. Jokic is an underrated post defender too, really quick hands and Dwight with how aggressive he is could easily commit an offensive foul

yoyoboy · Post #655 » by **yoyoboy** » Fri Sep 25, 2020 2:28 am

I can't believe I'm more confident in Dwight postups leading to scores than LeBron isolating at this point. His jumper is just not there and he doesn't have the athleticism anymore to get all the way to the rim before Denver's defense meets him there.

His misses have been pretty bad, all left or right

They've listed the groin on the injury report basically all playoffs.

I don't want to see Lebron isolate on the perimeter anymore. Just get him in the mid-post.

Exactly. He doesn't have the quickness to beat this zone from the perimeter all the way to the rim anymore but in the mid-post he can just bully ball.
