    Droning on? I said CJ was probably a better passer than Mo and you flipped out. It's an observation.

    "Earned the right to turn the ball over..." Let that sink in.

    LeBron.

    James.

    I think people can overlook a few turnovers from the best player in the game, no?

    You're fine Nate, no worries.

    Everyone has an issue they beat on (BF can be a broken record about the press). I'm glad someone is questioning Mo. What I find funny is I didn't like Mo in the pre-season and you did and now we have kind of switched. Although I'm not sold 100% on Mo, for a back up PG I think he fits with this Blazers squad.

    You've been flipping out about Mo for more than a month. It's an observation. ;)

    Probably the best turnout I've ever seen for a D league game...guess it's the hot ticket item on a Friday night in Boise?

    Yup. I'm the only one. You're very observant.

    Meanwhile, Stampede making a run.

    I suspect CJ will have a bit better court vision and passing than Mo. Their games are different. We'll see.

    I'm sure Miami fans can, I happen to be a Blazer fan...I've got Mo's back here. Glad he's on board and comparing the salary LeBron makes over the salary Mo makes....we got a steal

    I don't. But you do. Which makes your opinion hypocritical. It's ok for LeBron, but not Mo? Turnover are bad, umkay. So you shouldn't turn the ball over no matter how high your salary, umkay.

    Damian averages 6 assists per game and 2.2 turnovers in 36 minutes per game.

    Mo averages 4.9 assists and 2.2 turnovers in 24.3 minutes per game.

    So Dame averages nearly 3-1 assist to turnover ratio.

    Mo averages around 2.2-1 assist to turnover ratio.

    He would like to say it. He can't say it (honestly), but he sure would like to. :)

    13/6/6 in 17 min.

    He looked to be going half-speed. I'd say he had a great first game. The rust is there but who didn't expect that? Out six months before SPL and then all of fall camp to now. I'm excited about his potential.

    Well, he did say "competitive". Not "good".

    I wouldn't call 8 turnovers "a few" but if it supports your cause..go ahead
