"I was making most of the plays where I had to create for other guys, and I don't have to do that this year. In the rebounding, everyone's stealing my rebounds. Every time I get near Drew, he knocks me out as if I'm on the other team." </div> http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/plaindealer/...4041.xml&coll=2 i was wondering that untill i found the anwer straight from his mouth.
LeBron doesn't have to collect a large volume of assists to validate his passing ability. His role on the team has changed to being more of a scorer/finisher, which he's quite adept at. I think the Cav's guards have improved greatly in their ballhandling and ability to create shots as well, with Lucious Harris replacing Ira Newble. Assuming LeBron finishes out the year averaging around 40 minutes a game, I think he'll average 28 ppg, 7 rpg, 4.5 apg. And if the Cavs continue on their current pace and win 55+ games, he'll be a very strong MVP candidate. Probably will win it.

They are 8 games into the season, the Cavs are 6-2, and LeBron is still doing extremely well.
