    come on dude. you post a lot of good things. But come on man. Atlanta is under .500.....
    They aren't a good team. But in any case I'll roll with it.
    You furthered the point of any team can beat any team on any night. Did the Blazers not lose to the 6ers this year? Have the Heat not lost to the 6ers this year? They both have. Come on... These are NBA players, teams get hot.. Teams play down to the level of the competition...
    Come on man. This thread is a joke.

    Cut Lillard......................

    This is what I'm hoping for. If Dame really does coast at times, and seeks to "step it up" in certain scenarios, I'm hoping that he does exactly that from game one. A fully-focused Lillard can be a thing of beauty.

    You guys honestly think Dame is coasting? I don't see it. Not to many players in the game dominate EVERY game. Maybe that kid is tired. People do have off games every now and then.

    I actually think he's pressing, not coasting.

    ....but guys like Steph Curry can put on a show for 40+ minutes, I don't see why Dame can't. These athletes are ultra-conditioned and are basically trained to do this every day. They aren't soft bodies like you and me. haha.

    Off night though, that I can buy. Shit doesn't always hit for you when its your second year and the other team's defense has your scouting report on lock.

    More importantly, does Lillard stand with his teammates during the national anthem?

    Curry HAS to do that for 40+ min for them to win. Dame doesn't and we have still won more games than them!

    Rookie Lilliard was a great clutch shooter. He checked out mentally and Sophomore Lilliard has been a minor factor all season.

    This has got to be a veiled attempt to get Crabbe more playing time
