[NBA] Comments that Don't Warrant Their Own Thread (Playoffs?)

I wonder if Lebron's lack of a real playing position has limited how effective he is? He plays anything from the 1 - 4, and pretty well at most of them. But he doesnt dominate any one position, though he has the physical tools to do so. Has he spread himself too thin over the playing field? When execution and consistency matters, such as in the playoffs, does his lack of a real position add to the troubles, ultimately just adding confusion to his own game and to his teammates? What if he had chosen to develop his SF skills, and learned to play that position? Could he had been the best SF the game has ever seen? Again he certainly has the tools to do so. And how much more effective, or less effective, would he be from a coaching/teamplay perspective?
He's an SF. Thing is in Cleveland they didn't have a good offensive scheme so he just handled the ball a lot, ending up more like a SG/PG. Then he went to Miami, where the offense is basically a) give ball to either Wade or James and let them drive --> option 1: kick out to Bosh for baseline or elbow jumpshot. Option 2: Kick out to open 3 point shooter. Option 3: Layup.
Doesn't exactly develop any true SG or SF position-ness.
