    "Let me just say this about this guy Meyers Leonard. He's come in with a spurt of energy, set some nice screens, made a fadeaway, got a couple of good looks around the rim, I don't know why he's not getting more minutes"

    If there were 5 Damian Lillards in the starting line up I would agree. This is a team game. You have to rely on your second unit to keep up just as much or at least nearly just as much. Do you know how many times I have seen wasted possessions tonight because ET wanted to show out his ugly jumper instead of play “consistent and smart” and pass it out? Aminu has been guilty of it a few times tonight too. We have no consistent wing scorer. We have no interior D. Nurkic got abused by illegal screens and Jimmy Butler’s jumper made everyone look a little stupid tonight. Minnesota has players that come off the bench and score with consistency. Crawford’s points were valuable tonight, Stotts consistenly has smaller players guarding giants out there...idk why yet...doesn’t seem like something an NBA coach would let happen at such a high rate but hell its Stotts. Wiggins was allowed 22 points because the guy REFUSES to put Aminu where he needs to be. This is far from only Lillards fault. He’s my favorite player too and i’d never make unnecessary excuses for him....but let’s be real...this really isn’t just him. It takes a lot more than one players efforts to get dogged like we are getting dogged every night.

    It's not fair to blanket statement an entire country because of the most popular sport.

    There are individuals that like sports that are not the most popular in their country. It's not fair to label an entire country when there are just too many individuals.

    Be kind to them. People are different.

    You're bashing Dame for this loss when he played great outside of a couple extra turnovers. Bashing Dame is the last thing you should be doing. Asking "Hows L illard going to respond to this L" as if it's on him is what was annoying. We already have enough posters that bash him all the time.

    If you guys are going to have a pissing contest, please take it to private messages, the rest of us don't really care about it.
