Pistons Plan: Make LeBron James Sweat
by John W. Davis - posted Tuesday, April 21st, 2009
There are no tricks we’re going to add,” Rasheed Wallace said. “Just straighten on up.”
James scored 38 in the series opener.
“We didn’t make him take the shots we wanted him to take,” Curry said. “He got eight (of his 13) baskets in the paint and he was 11-for-14 at the free-throw line. That pretty much sums it up. We have to keep him out of the paint more than that.”
“He’s very tough when he puts his mind to it,” center Zydrunas Ilgauskas said Sunday when asked if James was impossible to cover. “He can do everything on the floor, including passing. You pick your poison. Teams want to give him different looks. He’s seen everything.”
