    Nope. 0-3 in the 4th quarter, so not a star. Sorry.

    HOW DARE HE TRY TO INVOLVE OTHERS. STARS DON'T ALLOW OTHERS TO SHOOT THE BALL, don't you know?

    I mean... it was kinda his fault for giving the ball to Plumlee three times in a row.

    Or it's Plums fault for thinking he can actually shoot. ;)

    I don't think that was shooting. That was trying to drive and getting stuffed.

    If I could stomach it, it would be interesting to look at those 4th quarter plays where Plumlee ended up looking so bad. What happened to the other guys who should have made themselves available to help him out? Against the Clippers there were always cutters available to receive a pass from Plumlee, but against the Warriors, it was like he was on an island with nobody but the Warriors in front of him.

    Plum was going to deep in the key to make any plays he was getting caught underneath to far then he was getting trap and no where to go. He has to make that adjustment next game. In off season he need perfect a jump shot at the free throw.

    Now it makes sense to why he play at a seemingly carelessness style, it is actually because he play at ease. he has, is, will be the best point guard in trailblazers history. now let beat the s--t out of those warriors. i believe that damian will go off against them tomorrow night. bring that 50 point back dame. #LillardTime

    Why does the 4th best player on the team feel that he should be the leader?

    He was practicing threes before Game 6 and he didn't hit a single one.

    What does shooting 3 pointer have anything to with getting good shooting from around the foul line area.
