Compared to last season's 10.7 rate, LeBron James's shots from the field scored have diminished this season to 9.3 per game.The Los Angeles Lakers have been the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league at home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).This year, the other team has captured 13.0 offensive boards per game (3rd-most in the NBA) against the Mavericks (retaining possessions that can result in more opportunities for offense).This year, the opposition's starting PFs have attempted 2.2 free throws per game (15th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Mavericks, facing an uphill battle to get to the free-throw line.LeBron James should experience a decrease in performance for all stats considering playing away from home in this game.
