    For now, I'd like him to concentrate on being a good player.

    Dear Connie,

    A 2nd-round rookie needs to be humble. Use the fierceness against opponents only. Be more shy with teammates. You have no idea how to play the game, so your leading would be like a kid leading adults. Leadership is earned by acts, not words, and it takes more time than, well, zero games played so far. For a 44-inch leaper who never jumps higher than 20 inches, you're doing alright, so be content with that fraud getting you drafted.

    In summary, STFU.

    Hard to be a leader when you only play every 5th game

    He's a college PF in a SG's body. What could go wrong?

    gotta at least be a decent player before you become a leader, basically STFU Pat and play hard and show us not tell us

    This is the kind of drivel I didn't miss while I was away. EVERYONE knows it's easier going from small college SF to NBA all star PG than from Notre Dame's starting PF to NBA scrub team shooting gaurd.

    That should be super helpful given Lillard's drinking problems. Now we know why Pat was drafted.

    Jeez. He said he wanted to be a leader. Not have sex with your mother while putting sugar in your gas tank. Ouch! Misplaced aggression.
