View Full Version : Lebron is losing because his style can't win shootouts, which is today's style

All the best teams are in the top 12 in team assists (ball movement), which is required to win shootouts.. Cleveland is the only exception (24th in APG)
Furthermore, when a team's best player is an expert jumpshooter, this enhances a team's spurtability..
Ultimately, Luka and Lebron's spotty-shooting, ball-dominance is becoming outdated (loser-ball) and it already yielded perennial Finals underdogs with preseason favorite super-teams with Lebron's Heat and Cavs teams.

Could mj win today without Phil Jackson and the triangle? Could he win trading his contested midranges vs ppl shooting 3’s at a 40% clip? Tell me OP. No pippen and no triangle how would mj’s exact game translate to this era?????
If I replaced Shai Gilgerous Alexander with MJ what would the thunder record be right now?

You misperceive Jordan's ability
Unlike Lebron, who is shooting 8 threes per game at 30% (low IQ basketball), Jordan never shot below today's standard whenever he had a modicum of volume (over 1.5 attempts, aka anything above bailout volume).
This includes the 90' regular season (3 attempts at 38%), the 93' Playoffs (4 attempts at 39%), and the 92' Finals (5 attempts at 43%)
Notice how the efficiency increases with volume because that's what happens when great shooting form gets in rhythm - so Jordan would have a ton of "shrug" games in today's higher volume format
