    I don't blame anyone about our losses this Stotts offense it a hit or miss scheme. There really nothing between in this scheme. It guard oriented offense and that why you see the most shots come from our guards on both the 1st and the 2nd lineups. Thats why our forwards don't shoot well because there in no rhythm for them.

    Yeah, it is a hit or miss scheme because it doesnt do a good job of getting good shots, yet our guards are good enough to hit thought shots and create stuff on their own.

    Disappointing 4 point loss. They are resurging and we earned an 8th game loss. At least it was NOT a blowout.

    Not saying i agree at all with @Rozay , but he's not wrong on Dames 3 point Shooting. He's now at 33.5%, that is bad, a Friend of Mine calls Lillard a brick Machine from 3, and that has been Lillard biggest Problem in his Career, he has to many off nights to be elite , that's Why almost many fans outside of Blazers Fans Never consider him an MVP, just not constant enough. And i love Dame he is my favourite Player

    As has been previously mentioned our problem was no Nurk in the 2nd half. Hopefully his shoulder will be fine.

    He’s still a good player obviously but your friend is absolutely right.. 33.5% is not good at all and Dame has this ridiculous reputation has a great 3 point shooter when he’s not

    I’m not sure I’ve seen a credible writer ever call Dame a “GREAT” 3 point shooter. Maybe I missed that. He is a great scorer though. And Dame is much more than a “good player”.

    I love how we try and educate you and it's just in one ear, out the other.

    You know what's ridiculous? Basing him off of his 33.5 3P% over 20 games and ignoring his CAREER 36.7%, as well as ignoring the factors I've stated that maybe him more effective than his percentage indicates. Nah, you just wanna hate without being logical, so you ignore it. You can't have a logical back and forth with logical posters, so instead of considering what they have to say, you cry "homer" and only consider words of ignorant negativity.

    You'd think, after multiple bannings and years of this, at some point you'd stop hating and would want some credibility... but nah. You have the least credible posts on this board.

    At least Kingspeed lifts spirits, is positive, and does it for fun. You're the anti-Kingspeed, with less credible posts.

    Well I’m glad I’m overreacting and saying people call him a great shooter because he’s not from 3

    A 36.7% career three point shooter should not be shooting as many and the kind of shots Dame shoots. I'd rather have CJ taking those attempts. Dame gets an incredibly green light from Stotts and everyone knows it. Hell, that said, Dame's shot has been trash this month even on open attempts so maybe he just needs to get into a gym and fix that shit.

    You realize shooting 36.7% from 3 is the same as scoring 55% from 2? It's a solid, above average percentage.

    Noob error. Ever since the ABA started the 3-point shot, beginners have said that you just multiply by 1.5.

    You should add the free throws which come with the 2-pointers, and the disruption to the other team as they accumulate fouls.

    I voted for Turner. The only ones who have done better than I expected are, in order of the amount of surprise

    1. Turner
    2. Nurkic
    3. Leonard

    I love how this is a point I try to explain to people all the goddamn time. Obviously the context was shooting efficiency per shot type, but you se to be unable to grasp what the conversation was about. Especially since one of my points as to why Dame was a better 3pt shooter than his percentage indicates was because hes one of the best in the league at drawing fouls off of 3pt shots. Nice try buddy.
