Barry: LeBron Never Taught How To Shoot

[Pugz]

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]."

exactly what i've been saying

his elbow sticks out too much and his follow through is ugly.
then he shoots to hard. you never see him under shoot, it's always over shoot

I can't imagine how amazing he would be if he could shoot better, he's already the best player with out a great mid range/long range game.
