Why doesnt Lebron attack the paint anymore(lost capability?)
Or is he just not capable anymore? I mean he still does it but only at the end of games when his team is struggling for a win.... and then its pretty apparent hes hard to stop.
Most of the time he looks more like a shooter when I think he shouldn't be.

Not sure which games you're watching but he looks quite capable of scoring in the paint to me..

doubt he's lost it...it's all still a means of cohesiveness with the team. we see flashes of it, but nothing consistent to date to say they have lost anything. as the team grows, LBJ will surely find his ways back to the absket as normal.
bare in mind, there is also another attacker of the rim on the floor and on his team...and both have given up some drives for the other.

He's more or less asking the question, not stating he's obviously lost something.
Obviously Kobe has lost some of his athleticism, but he's improved so many other aspects of his game it almost off-sets that.
Stay on topic please.

Lebron "losing" ANY significant capability is a false statement.
The only argument for the case is "clutch-ness" and even so I think Lebron is still clutch, just a lil rusty that's all.
