    It's good to see that Babs has confidence. That's fucking crucial for a shooter.

    Given how rough Lillard looked in that first half, I have to say his 3rd quarter was really nice to see.

    It's only a SPL game but I think Leonard has a great feel for the game.

    Now, he NEEDS the right coach to help him develop his game.

    Dare I say Myers Leonard is Greg Oden on steroids?

    Lillard just needs his shot to fall and then he'd be unstoppable.

    I'd hate to see this talent go undeveloped while some former assistant coach learns the ropes.

    no, according to you he's a Cooney and a likely failure

    Not really. That's all he does. And he could miss 5 in a row, then hits 5 in a row. Still 50%.

    But that's all he does.

    I think you'll see the Lillard of the first half when he is with the actual Blazer team - with Aldridge in the PnR and what not. Dude can certainly score - like I said before, I see him as a CP3 kind of player. Can score with the best of them for his size, knows when to turn it on, but is also a good passer (not CP3 level, but always said his vision is underrated). Also, I get the feeling that we are more likely to match Batum by seeing what our players are capable of in SL. Knowing what Lillard and Meyers could possibly do, makes it a lot easier to digest Batum at 11M.

    I thought the knock on Leonard was that he wasn't strong enough?

    His shooting was off, but I otherwise liked what I saw.
