    Not sure if those numbers are for catch and shoot 3s or off the dribble 3s. I know he struggled with off the dribble 3s.

    Scoot’s catch and shoot shots don’t look bad. It’s his off the dribble 3s that are problematic.

    Don't double down when the comparison is just wrong.

    Haliburton is in his 4th NBA seaso; and he spent two years at Iowa State. So then, in his 6th season, he has never shot under 40% from three. I don't think it matters how he gets those shots

    but if it did, he's only assisted on 38.9% of his three's this season; 44.7% last season; 58.4% the year before. His shooting is staying elite even as he creates more shots for himself

    Ayton drills the 14 footer. then the Blazers won't get him the ball like that again.

    Instead Grant goes full Ball Hog.


    Edit: Wow, nice setup from Brog to Camara to Ayton. Hope to see much more of that.

    You’re right. The comparison was off.

    Chauncey doesn't challenge the most obvious challenge.

    That was a bullshit turnover they gave to Ayton. He got a rebound going out of bounds and threw it back in and they reset the shot clock. This implied that he had possession while going out of bounds off one one foot. Fucking bullshit. That's a loose ball.

    Another nice job by Blazer Broadcasting. Showing a replay during live play.

    What happened with 0.6 on the clock?

    Nice, not showing what happened because the broadcast is too busy showing a replay.

    wasn't expecting TJ Mcconnell being a lot better than Scoot before the season.

    Why doesn't Brogdan just take a 3-pointer??? He and Grant often pass up a 3-pointer for a very difficult 2-pointer.

    I hope Scoot will be really good someday; right now he is hurting the team.

    play fast, and that's pretty much it. I would be surpised if he becomes more than a Backup PG in his career. Huge dissapointment

    Haliburton shot nearly 41% from 3 on nearly 300 attempts as a rookie.

    The Blazer offense has turned into garbage again.
