    ESPN.com says just 3 buzzer beater shots, not 3s. And that's false. He had a game winning 2 against Detroit too. I think he had game winning layups against Phoenix and New York maybe too?

    "According to the Elias Sports Bureau data, this is the first time a jump ball and a game-winning buzzer-beater occurred on the same possession inside the final 10 seconds since April 30, 2006. On that date, the Los Angeles Lakers won a jump ball against the Suns, and Kobe Bryant hit the game-winning buzzer-beater."

    Dame has had a few game winning 3s at what we thought at the time was the buzzer...... in all those situations, the refs put a few 10ths of a second back on the clock.

    He's had about a million shots with time put back on the clock. Against CLE, NOH, DET, DEN, LAL, PHX, etc etc

    Not saying you are wrong at all. He didn't either. Just saying he did address that.

    Ok can I say for 10 years prior to last night then? It's ridiculous that CJ being a great scorer himself knows how easy it is to score against such a defensive scheme. A scheme we are running against Curry for example for years.

    I agree with you. But just saying... Enes showed and it worked sorta. The help on the weakside was trash though and rotations were slow enabling Thad Young to kill us.

    He did have enough self-confidence though to admit he made a mistake. I like that.

    it depends on which CJ you're going to get: the CJ from the first 12 games of this season, or the CJ from the first 533 games of his career. I'd bet on the latter

    one thing I noticed from this season before CJ was hurt. He was having a career season, and because of that, Dame was deferring a lot; Dame wasn't as aggressive. IMO, the best Dame is the aggressive Dame, and the best version of the Blazers is the one with the best version of Dame. When CJ is the #1 option, it's great for CJ. When Dame is the #1 option, it's great for the Blazers

    Well, Dame deserves the win. Stotts doesn't.

    Dame saving his ass again

    Stotts told them to go for a steal instead of foul and they got a jump ball..without that call Gary doesn't get the jump ball....it's a team win. the team has the coache's back...that's good enough for me,,,,we have a winning record with 4 starters out....after that game I'd say some credit is due
