    Aldridge has made the argument for the best PF in the game... He may just start the allstar game. Fans are starting to notice

    I think LMA is an excellent player but I have to agree with you, especially tonight, he forced some shots when he was well defended and could of easily passed to open guys

    The only players I've really been down on this year are Batum and LA. Batum simply because he's been ice cold all freaking year, and LA, because it drives me crazy the shots he puts up. Everyone has bad shooting nights, but LA is the only one chucking up shots outside of the flow of the offense. He's actually one of the least efficient offensive players in the league.

    Honestly, I don't care if any of our boys do not make it to the all-star game. It'd be nice for them to have a break from those festivities for a week.

    Right now they are kicking ass and taking names!

    Thank you, I wouldn't gripe about him if he just stopped with that awful 1 on 1 stuff. He should be a 16ppg guy that shoots over 50% and plays good defense.

    Honestly, I would love for Aldridge and Lillard to be snubbed. The fire they would display after the all star break could be enough to win the whole fucking thing.

    I doubt it happens... The Blazers will have the best record in the league, and it's rare that they wouldn't have any all stars

    Batum is the one I've been down on all year. I cringe when he takes an open jumper.

    I blame playing for Team France for this slump.

    Kaman/Crabbe/Blake: 13-18 for 28 points in 57 minutes tonight. Solid work from the reserves tonight.

    I can't wait till we get CJ back. We should be averaging 28-33 a game from the bench

    If we played in Eastern Conference, we'd have a very good shot at winning 70 games this season.

    3rd in PER among PFs who play 32mpg or more. He's also one of the best three point shooters in the NBA.

    Credit Stott's game plane to pound it inside against the Pistons. Van Gundy is making a mistake starting Josh Smith over Monroe

    Ha! Yeah, and they would have 5 more losses right now. This is good stuff.

    I dont think he technically qualifies for that... he probably doesnt have enough attempts.

    Maybe he should be taking more 3s then. If he were to only shoot 33% it would be a hell of a lot better than his mid range game. His offense sucks. It's equivalent to the worst offensive team in the league.

    He's an efficient three point shooter regardless.
