The Cleveland Cavaliers have a 2-1 series lead over the Golden State Warriors in the 2015 NBA Finals and it’s on the back of their star player LeBron James. The King has scored or assisted on 200 of the Cavaliers 291 points through three games while AVERAGING 41 points, 12 rebounds and 8.3 assists. But with those numbers have come a higher shooting volume. James has taken 117 shots through the first three games while trying to shoulder the brunt of the work with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love sidelined. Obviously this is different for LeBron who’s usually known for getting his teammates involved. Now he’s more like Kobe Bryant and yup you guessed it, Bryant defends James new style of play.
Someone on Twitter commented that they loved LeBron James taking Kobe Bryant style shots and Bryant had the perfect response to that.
Bryant also commented on the hunger and hustle of the Cavaliers while the Warriors don’t seem to be going as hard.
