LeBron's post-up passing is going to unlock so much for this Sixers offense. Better spacing, better finishers, more talent spread across the floor than anything he had last year, this should be the easiest reads of his career.
The catch is the spot up threes. LeBron struggled badly last year catching and shooting, and if his man sags off to clog the paint, that's a real problem against elite defenses. He needs that quicker dip and exit speed back to make defenses pay.
But the biggest challenge belongs to Nick Nurse. Embiid, Maxey, and Brown all need touches, and it's easy to fall into a your turn, my turn rhythm that wins in the regular season but gets picked apart in a playoff series when a great defense has a week to prepare. Building movement into this offense isn't optional, it's the whole ballgame in May and June. #shorts
