Lebron's one on one game is all time level ugly

[IGOTGAME]

seriously....this has always been one of his weaknesses. Just no creativity or real one on one moves.

this isnt all about defense...some of it is Bron's lack of skill as a scorer. Can't really fault him because you can't be all time level good at everything

Lebron is a GREAT SCORER! But his SCORING SKILLSET isn't great. That's why his scoring ability doesn't look as technically sound as an MJ, Kobe, Bird, Durant, or Melo. Those guys have more tools to use to dominate scoring. Bron can score just as good or close. But his pass first mentality and scoring skillset make him a different kind of great scorer.

He's a great scorer within the flow of the game, but in these Finals when he's had to score at will, he's lacking. Some of it is fatigue, the other part is being limited.

Thank you. In the flow. 6'8 chris paul (which is still amazing)

there is just a lot of nuance missing from Lebron's game. wonder if its too late to add it

to be fair, Curry has never had a game even remotely close to Lebron's game against the Pistons...not even close.

I agree with that! MJ and Kobe at their peaks had A+ midrange, A+ postup game, A+ footwork, and A+ slashing ability. So when u break down Bron's scoring skillset, its not nearly as versatile. Guys like Durant and Bird are flat out pure shooters on who can score from anywhere. So in comparison to these guys, Bron's scoring skillset takes a backseat.

Some of his 09' games were totally insane as well. But it was due to his athleticism not his game

I concur

you couldnt guard Kobe or MJ like that but Lebron has other advantages. If you put a top tier defense behind Kobe and tell him to just iso at the mid post then he is getting buckets and THEY WILL double. Otherwise he will just post up and get insanely easy buckets.
