    I already have. Nail the 3, get fouled, intentionally miss the free throw off the back rim such that it comes right back to you, jump/catch/shoot all in one motion. Booyah, touchdown, I make miracles happen.

    Well in that case, shoot the FT from the 3 point line, and sink another 3 off the rebound. As long as your feet don't touch the ground I think it counts.

    6 point play.

    Why not step back and make it the 6pt play?

    No! No, no, not 6! I said 5. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who goes for 6? You won't even get the ball behind the arc.

    5's the key number here. Think about it. 5 fingers. Starting 5. 5, man, that's the number.

    I can live with 5. If you want 5, let's do 5.

    I like that he dropped a knowing, ironic, "Total team effort" (a quote from the movie Bedazzled) in his locker room interview.

    Ok I'll eat some Meyers crow. I still have some of the same major concerns about his defense, mental mistakes, and position that could make it tough for him to ever be a good starter but he's shown he can fill a very valuable role on a team.

    So I take it you didn't watch the game last night, and looked at the box score instead.

    This thread could be tossed into the McCollum and Freeland disatisfied group, Leonard contributed to our lone ray of hope Monday. He should shoot threes and LA should live in the paint. He's OK .. IMO

    Rip City Mornings is having listeners tweet in Chuck-Norris-style Meyers Leonard jokes. https://twitter.com/ripcitymornings

    My favorite so far: They wanted to rename N Center Court St. to Meyers Leonard Drive, but no one drives on Meyers and lives through it.

    Aside from his ability to hit 3's, the greatest improvement I see in Leonard is his rebounding. He is actually going after them, not just waiting to see if they come to him. His MUCH improved defense is a close 2nd. In another year or 2 he is gonna be a solid starter, as long as he keeps improving.....which he should.

    Anybody with Insider access care to post a few quotes from Kevin Pelton's column on Biebs' breakout game?
