    Yeah, LeBron is terrific, no question about that. I'm not worried about him at all. AD, on the other hand, had an awful game.

    So that LeBron guy is still pretty good at basketball. Good to know.



    He's ready.

    The Russ/AD PNR has good potential but it will require AD to make good contact on screens which usually isn't one of his strengths

    Watching those highlights... honestly, it looks unreal. He shouldn't be able to do that at almost 37, yet he's doing it, and it didn't look particularly difficult for him either. The ability to absorb contact is unmatched.

    I am actually optimistic about the Russ/AD pick and roll. Hopefully we don't forget about it like we forgot Schroder/Harrell last year

    Too easy to guard when its scouted well like in the playoffs: as you can just go under the screen which tempts Russ to take the pull up 3.
    This what the Lakers did to Westbrook when he in Houston.

    I think you can mitigate this if Russ takes his time and take more of a set shot like Rondo or Kidd. Basically he's really got to up his shooting percentage. I think what Houston did that kind of mitigated this and worked great for the Nets with Bruce Brown is to Russ set the screen and then dive to the basket. Essentially he plays the center position on offense and it actually worked

    A healthy and rested Bron with something to prove is a dangerous Bron for the rest of the league.

    Honestly the game was actually pretty good outside of the huge anchor that was Westbrick in the negative column.

    One of these seasons I expect Lebron's game to fall off the cliff but he looks great. Add in AD and good performances from most of the roleplayers against a team I think is going to be very good in GS: lots of positives just overshadowed by the Death Star of Russ's putrid game

    Lebron was great, but I want him to be more like Magic than Kobe in the future. He needs to get the best out of Westbrook and others.

    @wcsoldier81
    As opposed to winning games and another championship? Do you really believe that? Someone has to hit shots consistently and once again he’s here in front of our eyes scoring the ball with amazing efficiency. (well …. for a “non shooter” :D) The record will take care of itself if he stays healthy.
