2017 NBA FINALS THREAD. PART III

[EddieDoyers]

Hard to delegate more when you're pretty much the only competent floor general in the team
Let's be honest, as great of a scorer Kyrie is and how deadly JR can be from 3, no one in the Cavs can lead the offense other than LeBron.

Even with LeBron being the main playmaker, they still got a isolation heavy offense. It works on most cases, since LeBron and Kyrie are lethal on iso. Hard against the Warriors though.

Warriors just have a more decentralized system where you have at least 4 players at all times that can distribute the rock and employ off ball screens to ensure that the guy open will get a clean look at the very least.

So what you're saying is Bron needs help

I'm not saying Bron needs help, I'm just pointing out that there's a system in place that maximizes the iso benefits of Bron and Myrie. However, at the same time, it really shows that LeBron is the only one that can really run it to max efficiency.

Anyway, say LeBron got more help like getting someone like D Wade to handle half of the floor general duties, you would see a lot of LeBron's stats diminish. It would actually be more beneficial for LeBron, but I doubt that he would like to actually take the backseat in his role.

Cavs need to find a way to get a TT to do his job and sign or trade for a 3 and D wing so they can bring JR off the bench and get some scoring there.  Need to get some additional perimeter defense before anything else.  You can't have Lebron, JR, and Kyrie all out there defensively and expect to get stops.

Do you?

Of course I do. You'really claim to fame is just hating Kobe. And it seems capon for Bron.

Based off what I've read so far since the GSW victory, I'm convinced 60-70% of you guys in this thread are kids who weren't born before the year 1997 and/or never left their respective homes to experience life in any sort of capacity.

The nativity is insane. It screams pubescent. Who takes sports so personally? I really don't get it. I firmly believe very few of you guys are grown men.

Repped and quoted so that this doesn't go unnoticed. Ska gotta either clean up this thread or lock it and move onto the offseason thread.

The milk's gone bad in here

 

[captaintuxable]

SB Nation tripping. Who cares what you averages are. The team he was on and was a part of lost in the championship. Homie could put up gaudy numbers night in and night out. Did that team win the chip?

Lebron doesn't win anything by himself. The team doesn't lose by themselves.

You never answered my question. If rings > mvps why isn't your name Mamba Rings?

Pretty much LeBron would have to resurrect Wade and Bosh somehow and bring back Haslem, Joel Anthony, and Chalmers from a time machine.

I think LeBron's time is up. KD and Curry are the captains now.

You guys are right. Their offense is mostly just iso. A true point guard (hot take: there's maybe 5 in the whole league??) and/or a better system would be great. Lebron would still get his shots and his post-ups, but he wouldn't have to create every time.

It's really not that hard to get someone an open shot. They legit have 4 people who can shoot, at least.

As for their defense.......
