Yeah that's kind of their bread and butter sooooooooBass and Ibaka ARE elite shooters from 16-23 feet, so I'm not sure what the big deal is.
Yeah I was confused as to what point they were trying to make, those are elite jump shooting bogs.Bass and Ibaka ARE elite shooters from 16-23 feet, so I'm not sure what the big deal is.
This isn't a fair comparison, that's Cleveland Bron compared to Prime Melo. A better comparison would be last year bron to now so you can see the drastic improvement in his jump shot as a result of him putting the time in or this year's bron vs Melo.@Antidope
Dude he can shoot those jumpers without real defensive pressure and double teams because he's on a superstar Miami Heat and they play a system that tailored to his strengths.
Go look at his last year with the Cavaliers stats when he was in a similar offensive situation like Melo

As you can see Melo jump shooting stats are better.
So Lebron after playing in the NBA for 9 years just became an elite shooter?
No
This is just a case when stats are misleading
A lot of the names you posted are great jump shooting Bigs, and why are comparing jump shooting bigs to guards, we know the looks they're getting are totally different. This is a situation where watching the games should be used in tandem with the facts, and I know you know that.Did I quick scan and here are some more mid range elite jump shooters
Carl Landry 43%
Hickson 49%
Blatche 45%
Vucevic 42%
Millsap 42%
Boozer 45%
Not to mention the guys who you know are elite jump shooters. Durant, Curry, Dirk,Bosh Garnett, Kobe, Klay,Parker,Melo, CP3, Duncan, Calderon, Johnson
Damn thats a pretty big elite jump shooting club

Off the top of my head
Pistons in playoffs
C's last year in playoyoffs
Game winner vs. Orlando in playoffs
Lebron w/ 52 points AND a triple double vs .the Knicks IN MSG
Dagger vs. the Thunder last year
it goes on and on.
Every game is a career game for him. Every player in the league would get interviewed after a 25/8/8 game but when Lebron does it every game he's just clocking in and clocking out. He has to get 40/15/10 for it to be 'memorable'
Why is this 8 pages?
:x WhatI mean, does it? If Lebron wasn't the offensive weapon that he is, would he still rack up assists like he does?
Blame LeBronWhy is this 8 pages?
He was cool up until the whole miami/superfriends thing. Amazing player but no one can ever change my opinion of how he made a left up easy street. Still great player tho

**** the casual fan
if you love hoops you should enjoy Brons game

"Superteams" have been constructed before. Just by old men in suits in the back office.
I dont know why a people act like its a problem when players do it....I mean I think I do but I dont want to derail the thread.
Choosing to dislike him is your right but people acting like he wasnt a free agent and had the right to make a decision kills me
Yes he chose to play with 2 hall of famers in their "prime" and he just so happens to keep winning Most Valuable Player awards while being
If anything that elevates his legacy that not only was he the MVP on a team where he was clearly the best player but he still is on a team that has multiple all stars and HOFs
