Why did LeBron shoot so poorly in the 2015 playoffs?

Here's some FACTS about the 2015 Finals:


LeBron 2015

LeBron was purposefully slowing down the pace. You don't win against the Warriors (with a garbage ass team no less) playing run and gun ball. They're gonna out shoot you and destroy you. The Cavs would've lost in 4 straight blowouts if they played uptempo basketball.

He couldn't hand over the playmaking duties to others nor was he able to let others make decisions, because they're low IQ players. Shump and JR were terrible and can't create for others. Delly had a hard time bringing the ball up court. Actually, Shump is a below average playmaker, but the other two are worse than garbage.

The game in which Mozgov put up 28 points, the Cavs lost by 21 points. LeBron struggled shooting the ball, but he did have 20/12/8. 12 rebounds and 8 assists (oh wait, rebounds and assists only matter when it's Bird). Delly went 3-14, JR 2-12, Shump 2-9, JJ 0-3, etc.. A combined 18% FG%. Literally no one could hit a shot. To top it off, the Warriors went small and Moz couldn't guard anyone on the court. Bogut was benched and Green was playing at the C.

You're blaming LeBron for Moz not getting more involved in game 5 after the 28 point game, when in fact, the COACH played him 9 minutes. He played over 30 minutes in game 6 and LeBron got him involved. Dude put up 17/12/4.

For the series, the 3 guys who played the 3rd, 4th, and 5th highest minutes managed to score a combined 25.5 points on sub 40% TS. 29% FG% and 28% 3pt%.

LeBron James finished the 2015 NBA Finals with averages of 35.8 points, 13.3 rebounds, and 8.8 assists per game.

LeBron James is the first player in NBA Finals history to lead both teams in points, assists and rebounds for the entire series.

Without James on the floor, Cleveland

Do we know?

Anyone?

[RealSkipBayless]

Different eras of competition.

[ImKobe]

27.6 ppg on 42.8/17.6/76 splits against the EC

[warriorfan]

He’s lacking a diverse enough offensive game to shoot on that high of volume and still maintain good efficiency. His efficiency can get really bad as shown in 2015.

[Duncan21formvp]

He always shoots bad. Shot under 36% three times in playoff series.

[Axe]

Iggy truly was the x factor in this series

[eliteballer]

Anyone figure this out?

[1987_Lakers]

I remember being very impressed by LeBron in that Finals despite the fg%, he carried a scrub supporting cast to 2 wins against a 67 win team, he was so impressive that he got four FMVP votes despite losing. Bringing up the 2015 Finals is not a good example if you are looking to degrade LeBron.

[Ben Simmons]

He had a bad back that year

[eliteballer]

[dankok8]

Lebron for his career shoots 37.5% on all shots further than 3 feet from the basket.

Funny thing about this thread is bron stans did back flips trying to explain why this happened when even lebron himself said during those finals that shooting a alot of shots isn't his game. Even he acknowledged it's not a strength of his. Apparently bron stans know better than the king himself
