Rick Barry is a big fan of LeBron James, but sometimes winces when he sees the Cleveland star take a shot.
"Put this down and underline it: I'm a huge LeBron James fan. But he was never taught how to shoot properly, which isn't his fault," Barry told NBA.com.
"He has a flaw in his shot. I want to see him become even better, and this guy is scary good. He just needs to become a better shooter, especially from the free throw line, where he's less than 80 percent. I believe there were times when LeBron didn't even want to get to the line."
Barry added that LeBron will need a co-pilot if he's going to lead the Cavaliers to an NBA title.
"You need someone to count on," Barry said. "No way we would've won without Jamaal [Wilkes]."
