    Arrow Cavs need to feed LeBron in the post

    LeBron in the post (Playoffs)
    1.13 PPP
    93rd percentile

    11/18 FGs from the post
    9.2% Frequency

    For comparison Kevin Love is 11/40 from the post in the playoffs

    Also;

    LeBron as the roll man (Playoffs)
    1.52 PPP

    11/16 FGs as the roll man
    8.0% Frequency

    But LeBron's money maker?

    LeBron cutting (Playoffs)
    1.50 PPP

    15/19 FGs off cuts
    7.7% Frequency

    And then

    LeBron putbacks (Playoffs)
    1.47 PPP

    10/13 FGs off putbacks
    5.7% Frequency

    These along with transition, are LeBron's money plays

    ISB in the near future, can you mix up a formula to calculate the % of a player A guards a player B?

    I.E. What percent does Klay guard Westbrook per possession

    What percent does Curry guard Westbrook per possession

    Thanks uce

    Cavs need to feed LeBron in the post because he literally cannot shoot the basketball.

    or perhaps, because he's bigger than Carroll and Derozan... quicker than Biyombo.

    They do let him shoot. Golden State let him shoot over 30 times a game with most of his shots being jumpers, hence the sub-40 FG%

    yup.. the raptors sort of did it last game, going under every screen and playing him from a distance, and look what happens ... kyrie and love cant get separation and start struggling.

    I would let Lebron drop 50 on me before letting the shooters go off, and if you're baiting him into jumpers its not going to be an efficient 50.

    In other words, he needs to become a full time PF.

    If you do that strategy with Lebron, it will somewhat limit them but not to the point of the team losing games. Lebron imposes his will on the game plan. The guy paces his team with the best of them. Love and Kyrie will not be 4-28 two games in a row.

    Lebron gets flack but he's pretty disciplined in getting his teammates involved.

    That's true, but this is not 2K. Lebron would look at Toronto's personnel and just push the pace in response, obviously he can't do the same against Golden State because they thrive in transition.

    They tried that, it never worked with Bismack on him. And whenever Derozen or Carroll got posted up Bismack would come over to block the shit out of him. LeBald will be cherrypicking and chucking up 3s the rest of the series
