    Our most efficient scorers all season have been CJ and Crabbe. I think they had about the same efficiency while Lillard was out but they had more playing time (Crabbe) and more opportunities (CJ) so they increased their scoring but still at a high rate of efficiency. Is there any way to make this work with Lillard playing and the other two getting as much time and opportunities, and is there any way Lillard could become more efficient? I hope so.

    Aminu on Jeff Green.......good.
    Aminu on Zach.........not good.

    Learn from it and don't try it again. Davis is about the only option on Zebo. Now he just needs to make his free throws.

    Not sure, but you can't use Memphis as a barometer. No one else plays that style. Not sure why the refs call the games differently for their games, but they do.

    So I just played the Grizzlies on NBA 2K16 and we won 142-124.

    Lillard had 45 points, 10 assists, 3 rebounds, and 1 steal
    Meyers Leonard had 26 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block
    Plumlee had 15/10 with 3 steals and 3 blocks
    CJ had a triple double with 15 points, 10 rebounds, 13 assists, and 3 steals
    Aminu 11 points
    Crabbe and Henderson with 8 points each
    Vonleh 6/6
    PC with 5/2/4
    Frazier 3 points and 4 assists
    Cliff Alexander with a rebound and a block

    On the Grizzlies side, Marc Gasol led them with 29 points and 11 rebounds.

    Go Blazers!

    That game got the shite beat out of it by the ugly stick . . . The only reason I didn't leave halfway through the 3rd quarter was just in case a punchout was to break out . . .

    This team is maddening to watch. Memphis tried to hand us that game, and we refused to take it.

    Now that we've lost, can we cancel this game due to the weather?

    @HCP serious request for the broadcast team here, but when the team is on a fast break (especially when it's one guy leading it off a steal or something), please stop switching to the baseline camera. The angle is AWFUL and does not show everything that happens. Hell even the backboard cam is better.

    It's okay on occasion, but literally every time you guys revert to the baseline cam and I miss half the action.

    Also, the overhead camera. I don't know why it exists, but it really shouldn't.

    I just want one camera angle. I'm totally fine with the classic sideline camera. If you want to show me other angles for the replay of a fantastic dunk or something along those lines, great, but when it's live stop fucking with it.

    Pfff - whatever. We have a versatile, lock down defender in Aminu. It shoulda worked. ;)

    Exactly. Not saying those angles have no value, but just not live. Same with the quick switch to backboard cam during free throws. On a replay for a rebound or putback? Fine. Not live.

    The one that I absolutely hate is when they're behind the action of a fast break. I can't see shit. Who thought that was a good idea?

    Preach! I fucking HATE any non-standard camera angle during live action. It's garbage. They should ONLY be used for replays when the clock is stopped. I'm of the opinion that cameras should be banned from the baseline.
    Also, when they're interviewing coaches and do the screen-in-screen during live game action - fuck that shit. Nobody wants/needs to see the coach! We can hear him just fine without his ugly mug yucking up the screen.

    Are you taking about the cams above the rim, or our "hothead" camera way up under the big screen?
