    Because he'll take inefficient shots outside the flow of the offense?

    That's not how this works... you're supposed to go AWAY from the grain.

    Follow threads, post in the right ones, and be attentive.

    Nico had a great game tonight in Charlottes win..18 pts, I think 8 boards and a few assists but he's playing well for the Hornets

    His FG percentage is terrible still and has no 3 point shot plus this is only the Hornets first win

    MJ is telling Nic that it doesn't matter what your FG% is just as long as you don't let the other team score and get the ball back after you miss. Something similar to what Pop once said: I don't care if you turn the ball over just as long as you get it back.

    I begrudge those who have that different perspective you alude to. Totally unreasonable expectations and unfair to Wes.

    Because players always play exactly the same way after they change teams.

    So, you just assume that if he were to come to Portland he would bring all his best attributes with him and leave all the negatives in Toronto?

    The only predictor we have of what he would do here is what he has done there. How is that even the slightest bit unreasonable of a position?

    Well he wouldn't be considered the franchise player in Portland like he is in Toronto. We already have that in Lillard so he would be a #2 or #3 guy here which would be a different scene for him. Or maybe he should just go to the spurs with Pop and crew and be strong championship contenders.

    Ok, so we need to pay our #2/#3 guy $20M+?? Great.
    And by signing a #2/#3 guy, I assume you mean it's to compliment Dame and CJ.. Someone that can space the floor for them and make up for their deficiencies on the defensive end. But were sitting here talking about Derozen...
