Damian Lillard needs to be held accountable for his D

[Cippy91]

Cippy needs to be held accountable for his posts. I'll show up at his home in Lake O and wait and talk to him about it.

Fuck it lets do it, intervention since this is the most important thing in the world to this dude that he is gonna post about it every day. Before it consumes his life we must go confront Dame the garbage can

yes dame is a garbage can, get rid of everybody, sound the alarm, press red button, nuke the world.

CJ disappears last night, goes 5-14 from the field... Yet MM & the banned member are silent.
At least CJ had 4 assists, more than he's had in the last two games combined.
He also only had 2 turnovers, way less than has 3.3 average for last month.

Lillard & CJ deserve equal criticism for how this season has gone.

Can a guy go to bed at a decent time?

Watched this morning. CJ is an awful defender, as well.

Dame standing on defense was garbage

Neither of them are very good. Nurkic covers up some of that but I submit they will never be a contending team when the perimeter defense is so poor.

NO YOU MAY NOT SLEEP S2 IS LIFE.

Suspend me, ignore me, whatever, I am going to start a new thread every day, I remember to, until Dame or someone in the organization calls him out on his defensive effort.

It's 3:15 pm Pacific Time, 5:15 pm your time, and I am still waiting with bated breath. You still have time.

Nice. Everyday may have been a slight exaggeration

I don't mean to get personal, but I looked it up and a fish has baited breath, while a human has bated breath.

I guess if we added Lebron. I mean Kyrie, JR Smith and KLove were well known for having piss poor perimeter D, and then just like that they are champions of the world.

No doubt he would help the defensive end. You would just have to change the dynamic and probably make him the primary ball handler since he can't hit well from three. It could work, but would require some adjustments on offense.

That was true at the beginning of the year but a bit before he got injured Turner was driving more aggressively and making teams pay for not covering him on the outside. Maybe that was just a phase and when he gets back he'll turn right back into the Batum without a jumper form that was so appalling early on.
