basketball at the highest level is on another level than other team sports
that pass Bron threw to Caruso in the corner after those assist he got by Caruso slashing was beautiful
Watching those slashing passes in real time the timing was incredible. On the second one especially the window he had for it was minuscule (Caruso full speed with his man right on him and a help defender closing, both knowing exactly what the play was) and yet it hit perfectly.
Look at where everyone is when the ball leaves LeBron's hand and think about the fact that he had to decide to initiate the pass about a second before that:
Looks even better when they had the balls to run the same damn play the next time down the court. LeBron is passing the ball into empty space with Kings defenders all around:
In real time it's just sick to see how TINY a gap that ball threaded. There was exactly one place and one moment in time where the ball could hit a full-speed Caruso in stride, in front of his defender, ahead of the help, and with enough space to make the layup, and LeBron hit that spot even though he initiated the pass when Caruso was above the key.
If they have this kind of chemistry already they are going to be very difficult to beat in May/June.
at worst.
