    ...this is an excellent article from Grantland that details the array of Dame's passing skillset(s)! If you follow the link to read more, they also do a good job of providing video highlights of many different passing styles from Lillard this season.

    (just reading the article now, but...) Have you noticed that his passing turnovers seem to have gone steadily down as the season's progressed? He really seems to be improving visibly from week to week, rather than month to month or season to season like other players. Stotts said he's all business about self-improvement, and man does it show.

    A lot of his turnovers and bad decisions come in transition, and man he is bad at transition offense but he has shown major improvement in that area already.
