    Wow, looking at the roster we could have 6 players (Lillard, Batum, Wes, Williams, Wright, and CJ) that could shoot about 35% or better from the 3???

    Well 7 if you count Leonard! :clap:

    This should be a fun team to watch next year, I fully expect at least 20 3' attempts a game.

    Look at it this way: all starters and primary backups at the 1, 2 and 3 can stroke it. Very exciting. No excuse for LMA not to bang down low.

    This team is going to look a lot like the 2010-11 Mavs...

    Lillard : Kidd
    Matthews : Stevenson
    Batum : Marion
    Aldridge : Dirk
    Lopez : Chandler

    Williams : Barea
    McCollum : Terry
    Wright : Peja
    Robinson : Haywood
    Leonard : Mahinmi
    Crabbe/Barton : Brewer
    Claver : Custodian

    Coincidence that Stotts was on that teams coaching staff? I think not.

    I know that lol I'm just saying the team is built similarly. Marion and Batum are not like each other either. But it's not a bad comparison imo.

    It's a terrible comparison, sorry. Dirk was the only All Star level scorer in that starting lineup. I dnt think Kidd even averaged 10 ppg. Lillard will average 18-22 ppg and make the All Star team along with LaMarcus.
