    I think I'd rather have Blake in over CJ in a end of game shot. He is a better passer and he can hit the three just as well probably.

    Smh. We really need an anti-rep function, or even a thumbs down thing.

    Even if it's with the purple and piss he can be relied on.

    OK, good shot there, but you really don't remember his time in POR? He routinely screwed up in the clutch. I remember a playoff game vs HOU when BRoy fouled out and we needed a shot, and Blake chucked up a contested, running 30 footer with plenty of time on the clock. This sorta stuff happened way too often from what I remember.

    That was also 5-6 years ago (Jesus Christ.. Time does fly), we don't have McIsoTakeABadShot as HC and I doubt the ball will be in his hands to ever make that mistake again (thank God for Dame) lol

    For now, I guess I have to agree with you. Just a little excited I guess. ;) I do expect CJ to be that guy by next season, however.

    I like how Blanky is all business in that clip. None of the self aggrandizing chest thumping you'd get from 90% of current players.

    If Kobe hit that shot we'd never stop hearing about it... Even though he is horrible at clutch shots statistically.

    CJ is a great interview. Smart guy. Smart players are good players.

    There used to be a video of just that shot, but I found a video that does have it.

    Such a horrible shot. 11 seconds left on the clock. Rudy had just hit a clutch three to get us back into the game. I was so mad.

    In Steve's defense, that was a horribly coached team and he was given far too much lee-way and power over what was happening.

    Looking back, I can say I never really liked that teams play. Had Nate McMillan as the coach for far too long.

    Nate would have been fired rather quickly if not for Brandon Roy. Unfortunately or fortunately, Roy was so good that he made McMillan look better than he was. He would run those horribly predictable iso sets that were easy to stop, but Roy would go off and we would still win. The smart teams would just double Roy off the pick and roll and we would flail about and take a bad shot.

    Those horribly predictable iso sets were statistically the most efficient play all season long.

    Great.... how about the post season when it counts? The good teams knew how to stop them.
