re: Lebron's jumpshot or lack thereof

I don't know if I've ever seen someone criticize him for driving too much because I don't think its possible for him too.

The fact that it took him this long to figure it out baffles me.

I mean it has always been a big part of his game, but he goes into frustration spurts where he stubbornly wants to shoot jumpers instead of playing in the post and/or driving to the basket. That game is a little boring sometimes, but he is so effective when he is playing that way because defenses collapse and his passing has been on point lately. When the ball gets stuck Cleveland can get caught in a grind and they're ineffective. When LeBron is driving, he tends to kick it out to guys on the perimeter and they'll swing it a few times until someone has an open 3 or an open lane to drive and dunk. LeBron driving is good for LeBron and GREAT for Cleveland, at least IMO>
