    It's crazy that Dame has still never had a triple double. Dude nearly averages 5 rebounds a game with almost 8 assists.

    Also, still shaking my head at that shot Dame put up to end regulation. No movement, 6 seconds left, and a shitty defender in Felton in front of him, and the dude jacks a 40 footer.

    WTF

    It's fine if you take a three, but at least dribble closer to the hoop man.

    I think i have finally lost faith in the backcourt of CJ & Dame , i like them but it's just not meant to be.
    Fucking Deron Williams scoring 30 points... smh

    That final shot in the 4th too... they put a camera on Stotts during the timeout and it seems like he's drawing this surprising elaborate play and then Damien takes the dumbest shot ever from halfcourt with faucking Doughnut Felton on him.

    Fuck this. I want Thibs.

    How to beat Portland this season:

    1.Have two scoring guards between the ages 19-39.
    2.Have two Power Forwards who can shoot 3s.
    3.Have the guards do pick and rolls with the bigs, you'll end up with an easy mismatch in your favor.
    4.Pick and Roll is too difficult?? just have your guards blow past the Blazers defense for an easy bucket. Mayers Leonard will be delighted to pat them on the back on their way to the basket for an easy and1.
    5.Blazers are trying to comeback from a small deficit?? don't panic and let Lillard attempt shots from 40'.

    It's so easy, even old ass Ginobili can do it!

    Blazers are 0-2 in overtime games in the regular season and 0-4 against teams with one of our starters from last year.

    Quick brought up some good points on talkin' ball last night. About how Damian is shooting under 25% from the field in the 4th quarter. Can't remember if that was for the season or the last few games, but it goes to show how he tries to play too much hero ball in the 4th, and "Lillard Time" has been anything but.

    I recall Quick saying it was for the season. Dame has been anti-clutch this year.

    Per Quick:

    "This season, in the entire fourth quarter, Lillard’s numbers are staggering.

    He is shooting 26 percent from the field (25-for-96) and 20.9 percent from three-point range (9-for-43). In the six games the Blazers have held a fourth-quarter lead, only to lose, Lillard is 6-for-30 from the field and 2-for-16 from three-point range.

    Last season, Lillard shot 34.1 percent in “clutch moments” – which is defined by play in the final five minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime in games with a margin within five points. In those games last season, he shot 22.5 percent from three-point range."

    He signed to play with a Chinese team during the lockout. When his season was over we didn't have a roster spot for him.

    Our 2011-12 point guards were then Jonny Flynn, Raymond Felton, Nolan Smith, and Armon Johnson.

    Felton would have confused Patty for Chinese food and eaten him.
