LeBron having Curry is an absolute cheat-code. Here he gets a switch on a 6’1 Dennis Schroeder, because if you don’t switch it, Curry is catching the ball in space OR LeBron has a step on a hedge/scramble situation. If Steph has the ball and LeBron screens, you have to double Steph so he can’t shoot off of it and LeBron is catching the ball in a 4 on 3. Against SS he gets a rim-protector-less paint in crunch time because AD is off-ball screening for Steph.
Steph and LeBron working together is the cheat code that’s going to unlock team USA for these Olympics and give them the constant edge they need in close games.
EDIT: It might have been a pre switch type of thing actually, Schroeder starts the possession on LeBron, imo the only reason you do that there is if you’re anticipating an action involving Steph screening, so…same principle. Just wanted to clarify.

Legalize palming the ball because everyone does it anyway

I swear I’ve seen Kyrie do this exact sequence lol

Does anyone know about what year the NBA started allowing some of these questionable palming/carrying moves? Not a knock on Lebron, it’s been going on as long as I can remember. Just curious when the transition started happening.

Dennis should have trusted Theis or anyone else to guard Bron here. he got pushed back from 23 ft to the basket.

This is him having lost a step or two of his athleticism. Just insane

Honestly pretty decent defense by Dennis, just overmatched

Am I the only one who thinks this whole drive is clunky and awkward? Not his best work

Get you someone who looks at you the way Franz looks at Lebron after the play haha.

Shroeder cannot guard LeBron. Stop trying.

It is astounding that referees could consider legal the last dribble…
If someone does this on the playground, i would be so mad if we don’t cancel the points…

Schröder was 10 yrs old when lebron suited up for the first time in Cleveland. How the hell is this possible

How is that last dribble not a carry?
ClmrThnUR
that bucket happened because #7 is the worst defender i’ve ever seen. imagine a center squaring his feet and staying vertical.
Man his footwork has come such a long way from the 2011 Finals where he couldn’t post up JJ Barea. And now he’s the oldest player in the NBA and is still dominating.

Bro Schröder looks like a goddamn child against Lebron lol

The way he just casually puts Dennis in like a half jail situation on his shoulder is crazy. That’s a grown man you’re carrying like that.

Dennis played great defense here and his big man let him down. Does all that work for dude to immediately leave his feet like he’s never rim protected a day in his life.

It’s like a grown ass man playing with his 10 year old son

Does that count as a carry?

Derrick White needs to hit the bench so Hali can run the offense with Bron sitting cus him & Jrue basically do the same shit one is slightly better imo
krsCarrots
Even DHowars has a better foot work lol, he’s about to fall on each turn or is looking to see where he’s ball at 🤦🏻

Damn. You almost have to feel bad for all the other countries. They send their best players out just knowing that they’re going to be fed to the Team USA woodchipper.
