    Maybe Coach will try OUR secret lineup in the 3rd quarter.
    1 Dame
    2 CJ
    3 SlyPokerDog
    4 Aminu
    5 Davis

    Seems legit.

    Where's El Prez with the live shots from the game? He's got good seats

    Man, do we have a lot of overrated players.

    When Paul's under the basket, he makes a 5-foot pass and gets an assist. When Lillard's there, he misses an open layup, then gets knocked over. Chris Paul is 3 levels above Lillard.

    I know it's just preseason, but for a guy who's gonna be riding the pine for the first 3rd of this season, he sucks. Really bad.

    I get it, he's working on chemistry. I get that.

    But for a guy who we plopped down $70M on, I expected a lot more. His dribbling is horrible too.

    Are we going to see anything from Festus tonight?

    Chris Paul has 4 pts on 2 for 7 shooting....I thought you were an accounting wizard!!!!!! Maybe I misunderstood the "level" translation

    CP3 has owned Lillard his entire career. Nothing new.

    I was afraid of that.

    So in the mean time, we have to put up with a 7-1 SG who's always hurt and has no Paint Awareness, and an undersized Center who gets fouled out in the first half.

    Good thing we addressed that need at Center with someone who can contribute. I mean....it's not like we spent $75M a piece on two bench players.

    Oh wait.....

    I'd like one of you smart people (researchers) to find out how many NBA players have fouled out before 2:00 left in the first half, preseason and/or regular season, all time.

    Lillard looks much better in the box score than what he has contributed. He's made a lot of mistakes.

    Pissy, for a rook you sure like to ride me.
