    Well, I want a borderline All-Star forward or a forward who is young shows promised and with room to improve.

    Maybe Josh is on to something not shooting open shots.

    Any of these open looks for Hart go in and we blow it open. Instead…

    I'm liking it so much that I am working on trades to get some of the guys I want and still keeping Simons. More to come soon!

    quoting myself because the Blazers are getting mugged this half and not getting calls. Dame was clobbered on that drive he turned it over. Hart was clobbered on a drive. And Grant was mugged on a drive. Not whistles

    it's so fucking obvious

    He's got to shoot better. Missing is obviously bad. Allowing defenses to pack the paint hurts everyone else.

    He's got to knock them down. Or at least miss one long!

    I think Billups has been telling Hart to keep shooting threes but I think Hart usually (wisely) does not want to shoot them when he's not feeling it.

    NO, those are not good shots by Hart.
    Why does Lamar insist they are ?

    Ant has played really, really well. It could be that he and Dame are building chemistry and Ant's not heesitating or deffering so much

    He doesnt have defenders anywhere near him. Great shots for a guy who was a 35% shooter last yr

    They are trapping and collapsing their defense on Dame. We have no solutions.

    Chauncey ball my ass.
