Zach Lowe about the Blazers

He’s a fancy Lou Williams, minus the clutch.

 

If our record keeps this pace he might be an all star this year. Klay Thompson at this pace sure won’t be. He’s having a career down year so far

 

There's just so many good guards in the west. How many times has Dame been left out despite having superior stats?

 

Yea we have the best record in the West this year and kept a good record the last few years because Dame just DOES everything by himself lol

 

Lou Williams is a good player. So is CJ. Doesn’t mean he’s worth what he’s making, or that he doesn’t have pretty major deficiencies.

 

What is the point of this comment?

Has anyone said that Dame does it all by himself? No

Has anyone said that CJ is bad? No

Lou Williams could have been an All-Star last year, and he was largely the reason why LAC was even in contention for the playoffs. It's not really a slight on CJ.

Why do people feel the need to insert all kinds of wild hyperbole in response to a pretty simple statement?

 

Thank the good Lord Almighty that we have so many correctors on this board with plenty of spare time to point out any possible flaw in any post whatsoever... regardless of whether they miss the point of the original post or not.

 

Isn't that half the point of being here?

You make a post and I agree with you, yipee!

You make a post and I disagree with you, so I'm going to post why I disagree with you.

Otherwise why are you even here?

 

Love CJ. Awesome 2 guard imo.

 

That was happening when our record wasn’t above .500

 

Well, you know Dame won't be voted in by the fans, so that's one spot on the reserves that CJ wouldn't get. DeRozan probably won't be voted in, so that's another reserve spot he wouldn't get.

So who would he beat?

 

Well LMA won’t make it this year, KAT I don’t think will, Draymond is 50-50, it’ll be close

 

Sold. Trade Turner for him.

 

But those are all forwards/bigs. I just don't see any way that CJ makes it.

If anything, I'm wondering if you could make a case for Nurk.

15 ppg, 11 boards, 1.2 blocks, 24.5 PER and in only 26 mpg.

 

After reading all five pages I just wanted to make a post to show my displeasure in us trading Simons. I would be extremely upset about it. There that's all. You can continue with this thread now.

 

I definitely do not want him as some throw in. I think he has a bright future, especially playing with Dame/CJ.

 

I know right?

 

Absolutely ant will easily be sixth man of the year material in a couple of years.

 

Gotcha. I personally don’t care about isolating a single player’s defensive ability. I care about the defense we play as a team and that is going well.

 

Did those guys do it in 29 minutes? Did they average 20 ppg? Who said CJ was best SG ever? Your argument is incredibly lame.
