If you said that they played with a top post player, where there are doubles and people collapsing off the perimeter it may be palatable. If you want to say that Williams three point shooting improvement was because of Lebron, why did his overall shooting percentage drop? because shooting %'s are effected by tons of factors outside of the 4 other players on the court.
They dish out all the time. Are you kidding me? You really don't think they get double-teamed? Everytime they drive there are 2-3 guys around them. Sasha Vujacic owes his career to Kobe. How do you think Fisher and Ariza end up so wide open all the time? Because of the attention that Kobe gets. It's not a traditional double in the sense that when he gets it there are two on him right away. The reason for that is because he shoots a lot of jumpers. But when he makes moves to the basket, he's usually tripled.
