Granted, yes, Lebron has played some roles as a traditional forward in his 19 seasons. He has, however, played many times as a point forward, whatever makes sense with his current roster. In CLE with Mo Williams, he played from the point. In MIA he played from the point. After Kyrie left, he played from the point in CLE. As stated
You are correct that Luka has played from the point his entire career. He will have to be more flexible and play off the ball much more with Kyrie, as Lebron does.
Question: When Luka plays off the ball, letting Kyrie play from the point, will he be playiing like a forward or a guard?
This whole “slotting” thing drives me crazy.
We need to acquire a “3rd-best starter” instead of the bunch of 5th-9th-best types we have.
Until we get a “true center”, we’re hopelessly doomed to mediocrity.
Until we get an “experienced winning coach”, we’ll be a play-in team.
…and on and on it goes…
