    Riddle me this stat-master: where do they rank in 3-pt effectiveness? I'll bet it is lower than 13th!

    I never could understand why Eric didn't sign off with "King me?"

    What does that have to do with your claim that Nate is dependent on the 3 point shot?

    :dunno: Fine, I give up. 3-23 is an acceptable performance. Nate is a genius.

    The Blazers are 16th in 3pt% and 13th in 3pt attempts/game.

    They had a bad shooting night. Not sure why that's the coach's fault, but I suppose he played a part in it. Maybe he jinxed the players, or yelled at them while they were shooting?

    16th? I'm amazed. I would have bet you a beer it was in the 20-25 range.

    As for why the coach is responsible - he calls/diagrams the plays.

    It's "you knows", but I'm happy that you can count to 22! :)

    Its spelled twenty-two, just thought I'd help you with that. Its not actually a "you know" either, its more like a "ya know".

    Hey, I'm just glad you posted the "you know" count from LMA.

    Seems important as a Blazer fan to focus on those things.

    Getting 34 PPG / 13 RPG dropped on your head in the last two meetings will do that to you.

    Too bad Aldridge was in foul trouble both of the times Kevin Love had good games

    Coincidence? I'm not so sure.....

    Just give Kevin credit.

    He's tough to guard -- he can hit the three and drive. He also mixes it up by being a threat on the block.

    LMA lately is easy to figure out -- he calls for the ball 12ft away from the hoop and it's one of two things: fade away or an up-and-under.

    Love ownes LaMarcus. This isn't too hard to see. Love does this to every PF in the League.

    Don't buy it, sorry.

    There are a few people that feel like these two games have proven something, but they really haven't. It's why I've been laughing reading those people make those posts. Good stuff.

    All I saw is Love take advantage of Aldridge being in foul trouble. Two times Love has had good games Aldridge hasn't been on the floor.

    Interesting to say the least.

    19 of Love's 29pts came with Aldridge off the floor

    Boom
