Game Thread GAME# 68: BLAZERS @ PELICANS - MARCH 15, 2019 - FRIDAY, 5:00 PM, NBCSNW

What's your opinion on those Logo 3's that Lillard shoots?

Poll closed Mar 19, 2019.
  1. Lillard needs to shoot more of those - the stats say they are beneficial to the team.

    1.9%
  2. I trust Lillard and I'm fine with him shooting those at his discretion.

    52.8%
  3. If Dame is in the zone/on fire, let it fly! Otherwise, tone them down.

    30.2%
  4. I hope he limits those to only rare ocassions (end-of-the-clock, when Blazers are up big, etc.)

    13.2%
  5. Stop shooting those, period! I hate it!

    1.9%

    But that was just one game in March. They're prediction was about how we'll play in May.

    You wouldn't understand. They're too sophisticated. But the obvious one is putting in Collins. Genius move.

    We're forcing their bad shooters to take the shots.

    Look bones, i dont care really about single regular Season games , but i do care about our style of play, and we look the same like last year. And stotts still has no idea what to do how to stop a hot Player. All this does not give me much optimism

    I think randle is too quick for nurk and enes and too strong for aminu, so putting Zach on him is the right move, not much else I think was done

    Lmao way to prove your talking out your ass. "He made adjustments" - "Okay, what adjustments?" - "Uhhh, he subbed in his normal substation pattern like a genius."

    Lmao.

    NO shooting under 50% now. Great defense by us.

    Then say something specific about our style of play right now. Refusing to double could definitely be an issue in the post-season.

    Or they're simply missing open shots.

    The Pelicans have seriously cooled off. We have a big man with 10 points off the bench tonight. Doesn't look like last year at all.

    Forcing bad shooters into shots they can't make.

    Nothing was done other than using his normal substitution pattern.

    Collins hasn't been a normal substitution pattern. He's had some DNP-CDs since the All Star break.

    If Collins was on the bench, people would criticize Stotts for not playing him but if he DOES play Collins, no one gives Stotts credit!
