    He was brought in for his instant offense impact. He is only doing what I believe Olshey has asked him to do. To be a 'scorer' off the bench

    The bench is better, but how much better are they without him. I think you all need to take a step back and take another look at it.

    Well, I guess the same can be said about Lillard....Fact is, the team plays well together, and Mo is a big part of the team.

    I think Mo needs to figure out that he's not on the Jazz anymore. On a crummy team I can see him pressing more, but he needs to reign in in a bit.

    Maybe some, but I believe his on court personality has propelled the team to a few of their victories. Especially earlier on.

    Unless some other player made a play. We'll never know. I am glad he had his minute of glory, it definitely helped.

    There aren't many 2nd year players who can be 5-20 for the floor but still be the person I wanted to take the last shot in OT.

    I would have turned this game off earlier in the season when we were down 13 in the 4th. Just didn't seem like our night, but like they've down so many times they just found a way to win.

    Of course they do but Williams ball-pounding dribbling exhibition has been going on all season...as has the bricklaying shooting statistics. Certainly glad they won and Mo is better than anyone they had last year but it certainly is not an area of strength.

    Ooh. 4 game eastern conference road trip. I'm so scared. Maybe Mr. Webber hasn't been keeping up with current events, but didn't the Blazers sweep a 5 game eastern conference trip, recently?

    If only we had kept Nolan Smith we wouldn't have needed Mo Williams.

    Exactly! People are just trying to find anything they can think we falter on. It's getting harder so they start reaching

    If I was Detroit I would make a real offer to Phoenix. Either Dragic or Bledsoe, doesn't matter, I'd take either. I don't think Detroit will win with Jennings. If you put someone like Dragic on the Pistons, they'd be a real contender in the east. Probably top 4.

    The Pistons outscored the Blazers by a combined 18 points in the 2nd and 3rd quarters.
