Not a single 40% 3pt shooter on that team. I didn't say they don't shoot them, I said they weren't shooters. Those guys aren't scaring anybody, and if you aren't worried about outside shots when you play Lebron you pack the paint and make things hard on him. It makes him less effective and hurts the team.Different Roster, Young players maturing. Lebrons gravity and passing ability open things up.
You said the Lakers dont shoot threes. They do. See also my response to Cy.
Posting player's three point percentage who dont even play, and/or who suck at every other facet of the game isnt a good point, a doesnt mean they are bettter players to put around Lebron.
Korver - has always sucked. I would never want him on my team. He doesn't help you win.
JR Smith - See game 1 of finals.
Hood - doesnt play
Calderon - lmao, are you kidding me?
Love - overrated, doesnt help you win
Hill - Not good either. He is being passed around for a reason. He hasnt done **** since playing for the Jazz and benefitting from the system.
I think the Lakers had 1 good move in the off season and then they went out and signed a bunch of vets they shouldn't have. Rondo, Stevenson and the others they signed are not good fits around Lebron. The guys they already had are okay around Lebron but if you want to make the most of his talent you surround him with shooters, the Lakers didn't.
