We forget how amazing Roy was sometimes. Of all the tough things Blazer fans have had to endure in the last 10 years that's the hardest one for me. Can you imagine what he could've accomplished if his knees hadn't fallen apart?
Conversely, it's a testament to how sturdy Lillard has been in his first 3.5 seasons. Three straight years of 82 game seasons. 246 games total. If you look around at some of the other top guards in the league in their first three years: Curry - 180/246 (73%) Westbrook - 246/246 (100%) *Westbrook was very sturdy in his first 3 years and has fallen off dramatically since then. Paul - 222/246 (90%) Wall - 184/230 (80%) *Wall's second season was during the lockout in 2011-2012 so there was only 66 total games that season. Irving - 181/230 (79%) *Irving's first season was the lockout shortened season mentioned above.
Averaging together the all-time standings in points, rebounds, assists, steals & blocks the average rankings are below. Of course, longevity plays a part as well as being multi-faceted. 1. Clyde Drexler - 2.6 2. Jerome Kersey - 5.2 3. Mychal Thompson - 6.6 4. LaMarcus Aldridge - 7.6 5. Cliff Robinson - 8.0 6. Rasheed Wallace - 10.2 7. Terry Porter - 13.8 8. Sidney Wicks - 15.8 9. Arvydas Sabonis - 16.6 9. Nicolas Batum - 16.6 11. Buck Williams - 18.8 12. Jim Paxson - 20.0 13. Mo Lucas - 23.2 14. Kevin Duckworth - 24.2 15. Bill Walton - 25.0 16. Rod Strickland - 25.8 17. Damon Stoudamire - 26.0 18. Calvin Natt - 27.0 19. Brandon Roy - 27.4 19. Lloyd Neal - 27.4 21. Zach Randolph - 27.6 22. Damian Lillard - 28.8
And for curiosity's sake - I did CJ McCollum as well. For reference purposes, Steve Blake comes in at 49.8. CJ comes in at 83. Then again, Steve Blake has 200 more games as a Blazer under his belt (ok, for accuracy purposes, 199 more games). Gramps...
OK, what the heck... Here's the current team and their all-time standings (all pretty low outside of Damian but as most are first year, expected). Damian - 28.8 CJ - 83.0 Meyers - 86.0 Plumlee - 106.2 Crabbe - 112.4 Aminu - 116.2 Kaman - 118.8 Davis - 128.8 Harkless - 153.4 Vonleh - 161.6 Henderson - 163.4 Frazier - 199.8 Connaghton - 256.8 Alexander - 261.6 Montero - 272.0 The bottom three can easily switch around just by scoring a couple of points, having an assist/steal/block or rebound. A one point increase may bump their scoring rank by 4 or 5 places (depending on how many are tied at that low level of scoring), etc. Gramps...
