If LA is gone, I think Dame steps into superstardom. I think he averages 25 ppg, 8 assists, 4 boards. I think he moves up on the same level as Curry. That's my feeling.
Agreed. I think Dame well play pissed off and with a chip on his shoulder. Hell, all these guys we have now play with a chip on their shoulder, so at least it'll be a fun rebuild
Dame is a winner, and he'll have to put up those kinds of numbers or better for us to make the playoffs... It's going to be an interesting season!
You honestly think we've got a prayer of making the playoffs? Do we have a trade for LeBron James coming?
Then goes a couple of games shooting 1 for 12 behind the 3pt line and half the forum wants to trade him.
I have no doubt Dame comes out Ham. I expect him to be a top 3 scorer. He may dish 8 a game for shits and giggles too
I just hope we figure out how to counter the pick 'n roll traps that pretty much neutralized Lillard the second half of the season. A big that can effectively pick and roll would probably be a good starting point.
I don't know; so much depends on our ability to score more points than our opponent, and the players we will or won't pick up in the offseason leftovers hunt.
I see him pretty much as Kyrie Irving with the Cavs before LeBron. Good individual stats, but lots of losses.
He might get the numbers, but not the superstardom. That comes with wins, and if we can't make the playoffs, he will just remain in the camp of stars on crappy teams.
He already scores about 21 a night. two more buckets a game isn't that big. His assists with go up a ton next season if there is no LA.
That's exactly what I was thinking. He will have the ball a lot more now. But thankfully he has players who can set screens and slash, that makes dealing with traps easier.
