Lebron still doesn't make medium range shots to mix it up, he's similar to VC. He drives sometimes but looks a bit out of control at times, or he takes shots from way outside. He lives and dies by it. If he were smart, he'd make more fakes and mix it up a bit more like Jordan did. Or even like Wade does. The game he had 48 he messed up in regulation a couple of times which led them into the OT.
He has looked a little more serious in some of the past few games, so maybe for once he is taking it a little bit more seriously and practicing enough, we'll see..

Jordan did the same thing in his second to third year. He only started expanding his range later in his career. Lebron will too in time. No way James is anything like Carter. When need be he WILL drive to the basket as for Carter, as soon as he got range in his shot, he fell in love with it. Lebron imo is a much better player than Carter and will only get better as he adds to his arsenal.

Even in Lebrons 56 point game against the raps it was mostly outside shots, and that's why the Raptors won that game, when it came down to clamping down on James he shyed away after missing some outside shots.
Jordan had 63 against the Celtics in the playoffs with a whole variety of shots/drives his 1.5th season (cause he was injured the whole reguler season practically)
I agree, I think in time bron should realize and start to add stuff to get better.
