    Mike Conley??? Tony Allen is referring to the Mike Conley who's averaging less points, assists, rebounds, steals, blocks and who has a worse PER, value added and estimated wins added? Yeah I'm sure a letter is the reason, Tony.

    Maybe they should ask why OKC has two players, not Portland.

    Tony Allen is too busy getting dem checks to pay attention to things like stats.

    My thought is that he just thinks the letter that he wrote on IG was a bitch move.

    I can see why, but fuck em. Dame can do what he wants. Specially if he keeps on throwing those nasty dunks on people.

    What I don't understand is how it's ok for everyone and their mother to say he was a snub when the lists came out, but he can't make a comment?

    7 of 45 is abusing the hell out of a slump. 7 for 21 would be enough to convince anyone your in a slump.

    7/21 is 33% shooting, which is decent for 3-pointers, so it wouldn't be a slump at all.

    Do you understand how you get out of a slump?

    Hint: it's not by passing up shots you would normally take.

    I will quote a great coach I had the good fortune to know. You win games by taking the shots you know you can make. You improve your shooting in practice.

    After Kobe retires, he has a great chance of being voted in by fans. He was ahead of Westbrook and Klay Thompson this year. If he kicks ass in this year's playoffs, he has a great chance.

    WTF?
    Look, nearly everyone of the team shoots the 3 ball better than Damian! And he leads the team in 3 point attempts.
    Some thing wrong with that fact and it begs the question of just what the hell does he know?
    Let us not confuse know and hope, Hope don't win much.

    So, he can make the most 3's than most anyone in the league within the first 3 years of his career, then it becomes a bad shot. I mean, that makes complete sense.

    So, these 45 shots that he's sucked at, he should have just known? That's why he's been shooting 60%+ from 2 during his 'slump' from 3? I mean, what an idiot! He should TOTALLY know better.

    Damian knows he can make those shots. Why, because he has. And are you insinuating that Damian doesn't practice shooting? It's just a slump, get over it.

    Lillard can make the shots he's taking and everyone knows that. Just because he's been cold for the last 50 attempts doesn't mean he can't return to form. BTW, there is a lot more to him than stats and 3-pt % after a slump.

    Emotions clouds logic, which is evident.
