Through their first nine games, James had assisted Davis on 26 baskets, 10 more than any other teammate, per ESPN Stats & Information research. Compare that to his first nine games with Bosh, when it was 17 assists, and his first nine with Love, which produced only 11. Their pick-and-rolls have resulted in the highlight dunks that fans love and a schematic nightmare for opposing coaches. And even though they sometimes are caught a little out of position, there’s a natural flow that’s easy to see. “I think that’s part of [LeBron’s] genius that he’s able to morph into whatever he needs to be, to bring out the best out of the other players,” said Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, whose team faced the Lakers last week. “His connection with [Bosh] was pretty natural, and I think this is, this just fits like a glove. … When both guys want to do it, commit to the process of getting better with it, you’re just going to see that improve dramatically as the season goes on.”
If he wanted to, Chris Bosh could coach up a different niche group: big men playing with LeBron James. “Playing with LeBron was like buying a Ferrari,” Bosh said. “You know it’s the best in the world. It looks amazing when you see it. But you have no idea how powerful it is once you try to drive it. You can go right off the road.”
Justin Kubatko: The @Jaryd Wilson Trae Young has joined LeBron James as the only players in NBA history to reach 10 career 30-point, 10-assist games before turning 22 years old. James had 11 such games before his 22nd birthday.
What position did you play in baseball? Rui Hachimura: I did a lot, but I was mostly a pitcher and a catcher. I was a good hitter, too. Who is a player you dream of dunking on in the NBA? Rui Hachimura: Oh, I don’t know. [Laughs.] Maybe LeBron [James]?
