    Mags was right. I understood what you were saying. I'm glad that he's attempting more shots in the paint, BUT I would like to see a few more mid-rangers as well.

    IMHO it's as simple as it coming down to shot selection. I would say Lillard takes about 5 "bad" shots a game. He really takes some head scratchers sometimes.

    If he can eliminate those 5 "bad" shots that would really make a difference.

    Probably four of those five are drives into the paint where he hopes to get bailed out.
