    I thought I would compare Lillard to Jrue Holiday since i was thinking about him today. Lillard plays about a half minute more per game, but Holiday travels about 2.78 miles in a game while Lillard only a little less at 2.65 miles. Holiday offensive speed is 4.94 to Lillard's 4.46, and Holiday's defensive speed is 3.70 to Lillard's 3.62. About what I would have expected. I guess if i was looking for a player, his defensive speed would be more important than his offensive speed. The statistics are sorted by alphabet; i didn't see anything that would let me sort by speed or distance traveled, probably there somewhere?

    A win is a win. Suns is tough to beat. Bulls beat the clippers 2 nights ago and we beat them 2x. On the road in the western conference that’s no easy games.

    He doesn't bother me a bit. I simply don't read most of his posts, and take the rest with a grain of salt. What bothers me is when my knowledgeable and respected board brothers read, take his bait, and respond.

    Don't be a guppy.

    I stick by my comments about their defense Im glad they won, the defense is at times about as bad as Ive seen.

    Lmao. Saying Dame hasn't "earned" the last shot is one of the worst takes I've heard in years.

    @Blazers1977 Don't know how old are u, but I predict u gonna be bit ashamed of losing your energy on this "intellectual trolling" here sooner rather then later. If Lillard spend as much energy on the court as you do on bashing him, we would be prolly fine;) Good day man, go play some ball;)

    Here is one way i can see it.
    Look how many times certain people bash Terry Stotts. Seriously and i'm not trying to start a debate on Stotts. Or Lillard for that matter.
    But there have been game threads that the same posters post 30-40 or even 50 posts about what Terry Stotts lacks as a coach. All he is doing is picking one player and exposing problems in his game without reason to the issues that player is dealing with.
    It's pretty much the exact same thing people do with Stotts.

    I know....:dunno:
    I searched that for any way to compare by fastest to slowest. It's a lot of work the way it is designed. Any way you look at it though Lillard compares with the very best in the league.

    I agree with this take.
    That team moves the ball and is tough to defend. Monty is creating a system down there.
