    So? Quick apologized for lying to publicly humiliate him?

    Really? That apology can be accepted?

    Yeah... No...

    No, it's what I'm saying.

    CJ is clearly still upset with Quick (rightly so IMHO).

    Hence the way the answer was given.

    You're exactly right. It's not. It's up to CJ.

    It's clear the apology wasn't accepted and for some reason you think it's up to YOU when it comes to CJ accepting it.

    You changed the context of my statement with your reply. Wasnt talking about his answer, I was talking about his play.

    31-20 is on track for a 49.9 win season. Of course, the schedule gets rough, very soon.

    OMG you are a stats geek. Not a criticism, I respect your research and I am not saying analytics aren't necessary for NBA teams to keep track of. But to me it counts for a very very small percentage of any debate. This is not baseball.

    Nurk obviously meant that we need to get Anthony Davis involved in the offense.

    Unfortunately, given those stats, we don't play and EC team unless we get to the Finals. So we are a .500 team against the teams we will play in the Playoffs. Not exactly super confidence inspiring yet.

    well, what I've seen is that the more stats contradict someone's bias, the more prone they are to say that stats don't matter

    I try not to do stats without context. Which means I usually won't just post one stat, especially when it isn't supported by other stats. In the case of CJ's points/FGA, yeah, it makes him look inefficient as a shooter/scorer. But, at the same time he ranks around 8th on the team in points/FGA he also ranks 8th in eFG%, 8th in TS%, 7th in winshares/48, & 8th in BPM

    and while he's in the top-20 in the NBA in FGA's, possessions used, and salary but can't crack the top-100 in eFG% or TS% or winshares or BPM, or RPM, saying he's an inefficient scorer isn't just statistical bias

    And really, we're 7-11 against West PO teams - so not even close .500.

    Further solidifying my assertion that the Blazers are stuck solidly in NBA Purgatory.

    I wish CJ would shoot for a triple double, every game he plays for the Blazers. We would be a much better team.
    He takes too many poor shots. I understand he is a 2-guard. But, even MJ had lots of assists.
    There are games he has less than 2 assists? How is this even acceptable? How come coaches don't even call him out on it?

    Some SG named Clyde Drexler averaged 6 assists during his time in Portland....and the Blazers were much better for it.

    Why? Our schedule is much easier than the first three months, even with the road games. And we're playing much better right now and usually play better during the 2nd half.

    Over/Under should be at 52.5.

    Also, I'm pissed once again I didn't bet the over on our win total. I don't know how to. That was obvious money right there...

    Why?

    We have a great winning percentage against Eastern Playoff teams right now.
