Larry Hughes sucked but only sucked do to the role they wanted him to play. They wanted him to take 3 point shots, and that is not his game, he is a great defender and ball hawk, he also is very good at slashing to the basket. But when you have Lebron already doing that you need to spot up, not his strong point. Also did you look at the offensive rebounds Anderson, Gooden, and Big Z produced that year. It was almost 9 a game, and thats not adding in lebrons. So hustle matters, and getting lebron extra positions really counts. Also the Cavs were always a good defensive team, they just never had the fire power to go with it. So to me he had a pretty good team, just not one gifted on the offensive side. Also Hughes still average 15 a game.
So you telling me you would take smush parker over snow? Because even though snow is nothing to write home about, smush was just garbage. Also Lamar was playing out of position which did not help his cause. And the Lakers are the opposite of what the cavs were, they were very good offensively but not so great on the defensive side. Plus do you think Odom had any shot at guarding Amare?
I just dont like that Lebron will get all this credit, every little thing he does good will be seen as better than someone else doing it.
All I can say is Lebrons game is evolving, and that will make him scary. But untill he trys to match what ever Kobe does I do not expect him to do as much that is expect of him. He has no need to shoot the jumper, but he will shoot as much as he wants. Also he will get all the calls he wants which bothers me, especially agianst the wizards where he walked to the basket for a layup and nothing was called. And im sure they will find a way to give him this series against the Magic so they can have the possible dream matchup of Kobe vs Lebron. But I really hope neither of them make it, so there can be someone else talked about.
