    Tokito tweeted that the reason Lillard was so open is that they started running him off double high screens with LMA and then Lopez...can anyone comment?

    Alright fuckers - first game of the season and I've deleted my ignore list.

    Skimmed through some of the game-action portion of this thread and I see (unsurprisingly) that nothing has changed with you bipolar bunch. So far, semi-impressed with Robinson (going out on a limb and saying that he'll be our starting PF by the TD of 14/15 season at the latest). Everyone else is playing below expectations. It's hard to fathom, but LMA is disappointing. Can't judge improvement off the first half of the first game of the season, but I don't see how our defense has improved at all. Our offense looks equally bad, but I'm not too worried about that rounding into shape.

    That's what trolls do. I dunno that I wouldn't take them as being serious.

    Wes/Nic/Wright with 8 assists.

    Lillard/Mo with 1.

    Rather than say our PGs suck, I like that our wings are looking for the open man.

    No Claver? No Will? Stotts is stingy with the rotation.

    Our bench averaged 12-15 ppg last year. This is a step BACK. Lakers have a real bench. Our bench is a joke.

    Well Lillard is 1 of only 2 guys making shots

    Easier to get an assist passing to Lillard than the other way around

    Phoenix is playing small. Hard to work in claver. We got on the ropes and the last thing we need is a turn over machine in barton

    Plumlee played well in summer league and in preseason. Maybe he is decent?

    Do you guys realize that this is the first time all five starters have been together in a game? Just think about that.
