    That Lillard blocked a WHITE HOT Klay Thompson is picking it up plenty for me. He did what he needed to do after making some nasty mistakes in the first half.

    I thought Lillard did fine. Mo carried us.

    This team isn't Lebron and everyone else. We have more than one... we got the win, that's all I care about.

    Haha!

    He's playing the same game he's played all season. You're now used to it, that's what's changed.

    Lillard has looked like crap the past two games. I have no explanation from what I have seem. He is just plain not getting it done.

    Even if he is expending a lot of energy on defense, Curry scored 47 and Thompson scored 25. We need a whole lot better defense than that if we are to expect to not rely on his 21 points and 5.6 assists per game. As with Lillard, I'm sure we can always rely on those 2.38 turnovers.

    Uh ok. Beat a team by 9 that they should have schooled and barely beat the other last game. Really strange response.

    First off, this thread is a complete joke and should be deleted.. But that's not going to happen so....

    Every team in the NBA can play. Jazz have some talent. In case you missed it the Heat have lost to the hawks on Saturday. I guess that proves my point right there. A team they should "school" as you put it. But the opposite happens and they lose.


    But the bottom line is this thread is a joke, and the NBA isn't a video game.

    No he did not play like this all season. He shot 80% and scored 18 points. How many times has he scored 18 points or more this year? 6 or 7? 2 of them were recent.

    Hawks are good. In the last week, they SCHOOLED the Pacers and Heat. Total blowouts. And they won a nailbiter against Brooklyn. Knicks fans are suspicious...

    The Blazers are 53-0 when outscoring their opponents this season.

    No, he has definitely stepped up his game. He's shooting 46.3% over the last ten games. That's up from 41.7% for the season.

    Very good post content here...

    What's the matter? People can't be critical of a player's play after a win? Only a loss? Or should we all just shut-up after every game and wait until the season is over before we start discussing basketball, the team that we like, and it's players?

    Shit -- at least if you're going to complain put some effort into it.


    We all understand how 2nd year players wont be as consistent, they may be tired from the season, have an off night, or they don't have to hit their average every night to still be an All Star. We get it. Most people here understand that. However, that still doesn't mean we (as a collective group here) can't discuss the play, or lack thereof.


    HCP I am not sure why you even post; because all you do is bitch about the forum users and what they discuss about the Blazers, specially if it's anything negative. You do realize this is an internet forum right? No offense buddy, but get over it. Good bad or indifferent, people are going to discuss, complain, bitch, moan, congratulate, praise, etc.

    This is pretty much true. He almost never actually offers analysis of the team/games.

    We should cut Lillard and sign Lamar Odom.

    Why the criticism?

    He shot 23% and Curry lit him up for nearly 50 pts on 55% shooting.
