    Problem is, curry makes 10% or more of his threes. Yes Lillard can hit from 30 feet, but it's not an efficient shot. McCollum gets off a lot better things than Lillard does so he doesn't shoot out to that range. If he did I think he'd make as much as Lillard does.

    Straight across trades:

    Can CJ land Butler? No, but Dame can.
    Can CJ land AD? No, but Dame can.
    Can CJ land KAT? No, but Dame can.
    Can CJ land Embiid? No, but Dame can.
    Can CJ land GA? No but Dame can.
    Can CJ land Drummond? No, but Dame can.

    CJ is not worth more than Dame.

    Edit: Maybe not AD.

    @Denny Crane

    Does @SlyPokerDog have a separate bank account where all of these fees, charges and collections are deposited? I would love to see a running tally of all the monies Sly has made off of us.
    I am willing to bet he could retire if he hasn't already.
    And if he has... well is his job open then? ;)

    If any of the bolded are true, then the Blazers should pursue them.

    However, I don't know if any of them are.

    CJ may well be the more efficient shooter. But I still say Dame is the better overall player, combining shooting, floor leadership, and the willingness to take critical shots.

    When CJ wins a playoff series with 0.9 seconds, call me again and maybe I'll change my mind.

    If aliens came down and told us we had to hit this one shot from halfcourt or they would destroy our planet.... Dame would volunteer to take the shot.

    I don't see Rodman or Sam Cassell threatening to destroy the planet.

    I'd trade Jolie AND Aniston for Alba, but you know she ain't staying here long term.

    Alba may be hot but she ain't freaky enough for me.

    Well, since the world is run by corporations now, Reggie Miller and the Fernengi Alliance might try to buy us out! :dunno:

    I never understood these threads. I say Dame is better but who cares honestly. They both play for us. CJ is amazing.

    There is a fire and you can only save one of them. Who would you pick to live and who would you leave to die a horrible death?
