    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    Steph in year 3 only played 23 games. I'll take Lillard's 21 ppg for 82 games over what point you just failed to make.

    Really? That's the point you're trying make? Curry shot at a higher percentage for 23 games than Lillard did for 82 games?

    I think Dame is a keeper. He'll work it out. He's a workhorse and once he fixes up his forced 3pt shooting - he'll be halfway there.

    Not being realistic: I would contact the Pelicans and offer all, and everything they want, outside of Dame ,for Anthony Davis; Including re-signed Aldridge.

    Pairing Lillard and Davis going forward.
    Not going to happen I know, but a man can dream . . . right?

    So it's a lil less about Damian and a lot about Batum. He has a chance to redeem himself here in the playoo er you know I think that would just piss me off even more actually. And it may give some credence to my intuitions that he has no respect for the game, the fans or the Blazer Org. It feels like he has spent the last 6 months sabotaging all the organizations efforts in everything they are trying to accomplish.

    I'm just curious for the people that would be willing to move Lillard who is a realistic replacement?

    It's the only possible explanation that i can come up with? Maybe their girlfriends are kind up caught up on the guy?

    I'll pump my brakes now but let's see what he does this series. I don't even care if we loose this series since the grizz are better than us anyways but I hope dame can redeem himself a little bit this series.

    That's all I ask for. Just make us happy going into the summer with encouraged performance for the shitty second half of the year he provided.

    Atleast give us that. Most importantly encourage soon to be free agent, mr top alpha LaMarcus Aldridge with some good efficient basketball. Just give us that. At the very least.

    Trading Lillard is unrealistic, therefor any trade would be equally unrealistic

    Wow! I can't tell whether Sly wants basketball fans to become Blazer fanatics or just shut the fuck up?

    You don't need to tell. He's simply telling forum members like you that you have no reason for all of this Dame hate you all are throwing. Yes Marzy you are one of the Dame haters.

    Newsflash, he isn't and never will be Steve Nash....
