    Seriously if you would have told me at the start of the season that our playoff fate would fall on him at the line.....

    He has clearly worked his ass off. So proud of that guy.

    Nice 3/4 free throw right at the end. I do wish he put more confidence in shooting the 15 footers. They dare him and give him space cause they know he will look for others instead.

    I think that hook shot of his can also be a weapon.

    77% in the playoffs. Made the biggest 2 of the series.

    Way to step up Plums!

    (I'll never call him slash....)

    He really needs to develop that. With his relatively short wingspan, it would be harder to block.

    Plumlee and Harkless literally bumped it up a few notches. I couldn't tell you who was more crucial. But ya think Brooklyn want Plumlee back now?

    Plumlee straight outplayed DeAndre Jordan. He's growing and there's no reason why he can't become a complete center. He's too athletic, too intelligent. This is pretty much his first year starting and big men take longer to develop anyway.

    Plumlee was the MVP, Harkless the Secret Weapon.

    HCP thinks we only have one starter-level talent on the team.

    Man, Plum played his ass off this series didn't he. Way more complete and solid player than I ever imagined. Props to him, he came up huge for us!

    And you made fun of me when I called him a Team USA center. You also said we only had one, ONE starter-level player on our team.

    Plums is easily one of my favorites on the team. No need to look for the COTF. We already have him!

    why don't you just let it go with HCP? you are a big time Blazer fan and were right when many of us were wrong, so do the right thing and lets celebrate this team and let go of the "small stuff"

    Digging "Professor Plums". Or just "Professor". Need to get some pics of him with thick glasses and a tweed jacket.

    Plum had great series for us and the way the NBA going smaller these days he can be starter for us for awhile. You got to figure there that many power full center in this league that actually a scorer center. We didn't face one against the clippers and not going face one this series either.

    After seeing how much his FT shooting improved this season, I have 100% faith and confidence that he will continue to improve other areas of his game. He's a smart guy. He doesn't need us telling him he needs to improve his short to mid-range jump shot. I'm sure he already knows that will have a tremendous positive impact on his overall game and will be working on it diligently over the offseason. But, hopefully that's still over month away. For now, just keep doing in round 2 what you did in round 1 and maybe we will have round 3 to look forward to.

    He is a good player. He needs to start over on his shooting form. He's got a good decade of making millions ahead of him. There is time.

    I'm glad that his funky shot has gotten a bit better but damn dude, Reggie Miller could keep his form because it worked.
