It’ll be interesting to see how LeBron adjusts his game as his athleticism declines. I think he is a better outside shooter than people give him credit for, but he isn’t a gifted “bad shot maker” like Kobe was. As LeBron gets older and teams become less and less afraid of him driving to the basket, LeBron is going to have to figure out how to make contested shots from distance. He is going to be 32 this season, and even though he is a freak of nature, his free throw attempts have steadily decreased since 2010 (career low 6.5 attempts last season). I love LBJ, but now that he brought a title to the Cavs, he can basically dictate how long he wants to play in Cleveland, and how much money he will make until he retires. Just ask the Lakers how that played out with Kobe.
