    Don't have to apologize, it is just semi-annoying when trying to debate about something, which in this case is Batum. I am the first to admit I didn't see the game, but I was judging my view from the past few games moreso than this one. I just thought on the beautiful splitting of the double he should be taking the higher percentage shot in all likelihood than giving it to Lillard for 3.

    I was so close to throwing the remote against the wall and turning this game off. So glad I didn't...

    I will admit that I really wanted him to finish it hard after he spilt the defense like that.

    no doubt, that was a poor decision, or maybe just poor execution

    it was an aggressive move as a playmaker, but not as a scorer

    He also could have easily ended up with an offensive foul if he took it all the way to the hoop - I believe it was Griffin between him and the basket, and he had more than enough time and space to slide in front of Nic.

    Yup agree. No one should get me wrong, I love the way Batum is evolving his game even more. He is improving his overall game which I think is great. But he still has to learn at times when to take the shot as opposed to passing IMO. He'll get it down :)

    Just goes to prove that +/- is often a misleading stat and really tells you nothing about a player and how they contribute to a game.

    now granted I don't get to watch as many games as I'd like (don't have CSN), I actually have gotten to the point where I expect them to have close games, and expected them to come back even with the clock being under 2 minutes.
