    Default I thought Lebron ball made his teammates worse.

    He turns everyone into spot up shooters ( I hardly see guys like Kyrie, Thompson, Delly being spot up shooters )
    He dribbles the ball for 20 seconds each possession ( I don't see that happening also. Cavs are moving the ball really well ).
    He steals the rebounds from his bigs ( Love and Thompson are averaging high rebounding numbers )

    What's happening? ISH experts were wrong? Again?

    he's playing differently. He's not trying to be the point guard nearly as much

    Kyrie leads the team in usage, and with that they are playing the best ball they've played in two years.

    So thanks for pointing out that this team is better when Kyrie has the ball in his hands more and leads the team is Usage

    Just depends on how his supporting cast plays. If they don't play well it's Lebron balls fault.

    If they do play well he's being carried.

    The same logic works in the opposite direction with Lebron stans though so who cares.

    LeDecline can no longer shoot or blow by bigger defenders.

    So, he turned Wade into a spot up shooter?

    Lebron turns his teammates into Gods. But since Lebron himself sits atop Mount Olympus his blinding brilliance makes them look bad when they are beside him.

    Lebron makes scrubs/role teammates better, but makes superstar/allstar teammates worse.

    I you dont understand how the dynamic in playing off each other is different between Lebron and wade vs Lebron and Kyrie, then you really dont understand basketball.
