    So why the heck did he not do that at UConn? I wonder if he will be able to surpass Oden and Bynum by keeping his body together.

    Meyers Leonard rang the bell and made sure we knew he made 20 of 25 threes. #Blazers

    What is it about Portland and having bigs shoot the three? It's really annoying actually. I didn't mind Sabas shooting one occasionally, but it's very frustrating to watch Clifford Robinson, Rasheed Wallace, Channing Frye, Aldridge, and now Leonard all wanting to sit on the perimeter.

    Get your asses in the fucking paint!

    I wonder if the coaching staff is letting him learn this skill because it's easier/more instantly usable than teaching him to bang low. If they have no real need for him to stick around, and do need him to be kind of useful for trade bait/12 minutes a game, why not play to his strngths rather than the expected strengths of his position?

    to be fair, only 12 PF/C in the league hit 80% of their FT's last season. Wide-open or not, practice or not, 80% on 3's is pretty good.

    If you picture a backup team on the floor of Lillard/McCollum/Wright/Leonard/(Robinson or Lopez), that's Deadly shooting with fierce ORB%. Splash City? Mad Bombers?
