    Actually I think he can be a good PG. I think the coach is out of his mind for letting him run wild like he did. Really terrible during the Griz series.
    He took 31 three point shots during that series, hit 5. Leonard took 13 hit 10. McCollum took 23 hit 11.
    It should be real obvious where he should get the ball heh? A three point shot by Lillard is about the same as a TO where it could be and assist.

    Yeah, I am often reminded of the One eyed man in the valley of the blind. I hope not to suffer his fate though.

    A. You're not wrong that Lillard had a bad second half of the season. Suffering from a slump? Injury? Worn out? Subject to extraordinary defensive coverage because teams could sag off all of the other perimeter players once Wes went down? Answer: probably all of the above.

    B. Are you ignoring 2.5 years of terrific play and myopically looking only at the last half of this season? It appears that way. Dame is a terrific talent, but he's human. Cut him some fricking slack.

    It's never the wrong forum to blame Obama. Apparently.

    My answer Marzy! Somebody had to make a shot and he thought shooting out of his slump would happen sooner.Then he thought LA would take over and his shot was failing. Then Batum tried with the same result and finally Meyers and CJ got some burn and had the hot hands. The Lillard time watch just needed a new battery..started running slower than usual. Team shooting cold pretty much across the board affected his assist numbers but he got hockey assists when someone did actually score. Short term memory of the fanbase judges each player by his last two games although CJ was horrible the first two games, we only remember him scoring 33 in the last loss. Meyers finally learned to get in the stance and play defense, so his minutes bumped up and he stayed on the court. I saw Lillard pass him the ball many times when he hesitated and passed it to another guy. Lillard constantly told Meyers to take those shots and eventually he did.

    Between shooter and Marazul, I don't know which one is more ridiculous with their expectations for a guy in his third year in the league.

    Well, one thing is for certain. We wont win a championship shooting 3's as a main focus of the offense. It's just not consistent. Shooters have streaks. Streaks can fuck us in the playoffs, as you saw this year.

    I don't even know how to respond to this, it's just so far out there and... Seems to me like a post just to argue.
    I think I'll let that be the end of it for me.

    That 'Jesus son of God' fellow didn't post on the boards as of late.

    I feel he may have abandoned us during these latest playoffs.
