Guarding Lebron

Just noticed, a lot of this.  He gets so many assists, because everyone is ball watching when he has the ball.  If they concentrated on their man. he would not be nearly as effective.  His whole team moves around freely because even the guards have their eyes on him as he does anything.  Just a lot of bal watching, which is an absolute coaches nightmare.

Teams have no choice but to ball watch, as this guy will eat up any NBA player one-on-one.  Help D is crucial to limiting his impact.

If the rest of the Cavs team could shoot consistantly, there is no reason this guy couldnt post double digits in assists for the season.  He is fantastic at making the bullet cross court skip pass.

On a slightly different note, I am trying to recall whether or not teams have been successful throwing zones at the Cavs.  I'm sure the C's have mixed it up on occassions, but cant recall if it has had much success.
