    Good god. Yeah, he hits the occasional 3, but he fucks us over on defense far more than he ever helps on offense in extended minutes. And if he's not hitting 3s, he's fucking our offense too. He's bad enough in limited minutes 9 times out of 10.

    Blazers missed like 15 shots in a row and trailed by 23 late in third quarter in playoffs game 4 vs Dallas in 2011. Nobody remembers how awful we were in the first three quarters. They just remember how great Roy was in the 4th quarter and what a great game it was.

    Meh. What have the fans of Milwaukee done to us? They aren't like Lakers or Rockettes fans.

    Turnovers & bad shots kill you against the Bucks.

    Everytime Layman shoots Freak takes off to the other end make or miss.
    Layman has missed every shot and Bucks got easy buckets to start the game after that.

    Bad shots & Turnovers also allow Bledsoe to get in transition. Prevents Portland from setting their defense.
    Need good shots, and no limit turnovers in the second for Portland to have a chance.

    So this was before the game STARTED, I was having a conversation with my Dad about if the right move was to Rest Dame, CJ, Nurk tonight. It was a terrible schedule match up. Might as well get the guys like Trent and Simons some run.
    I know people hate resting but if I was the coach I would have considered it. I know its easy to say now that their getting mauled, but overall how do people actually feel about taking those “schedule” losses and using those to get young guys minutes instead of put out your stars.

    In 10 minutes he's at -1 +/-, by far best on team other than Evan Turner who is close.

    Passing the ball is just not something CJ does.
