Another thing that drives me crazy is somebody like harden gets so many calls driving for flopping, lillard has the same drives just without the theatrics and gets no calls which is crazy for an all star and guard who drives as much as him

 

[Blazinaway]

watching Meyers play is painful, can we see more of other guys and perhaps Cliff get some minutes and LESS of Meyers?

I would love to see Cliff get some minutes but you got to remember that's Myers is Olshy boy and he seems like a person thats dont like to be wrong. Especially his draft choices.

 

[Tunchi]

Yeah exactly. To say that mcollum will be better than lillard next year is quite the statement. Cj can create for himself but lillard sets cj up for those threes. Cj doesn't get played like lillard. Lillard gets jumped on defense because teams know this year, he's to focus on. Yeah dame isn't shooting great this year but he's had to take leadership of this team with a bunch of guys who never really got minutes in their careers.

If you look at Cj he's a high volume shooter and is still pretty efficient. He never takes bad shots and best thing about him he's never in chucker mode. I just feel Cj has that broy type of game where he's so smooth and deadly from different spots around the mid range game. I think he's going to be even better after his first summer from this break out season. This is just the beginning.

Dame absolutely is getting attention your right but at the same time it's not like he doesn't have Cj whose taking attention too. But this very reason is why I would like to see Cj lead the team in attempts that will open it up more for Dame..

Dame is nearly shooting from the 30s now. There has to be a way he can be more efficient..

I'm down in Bandon doing surveillance on Marzul and I could tell that game sucked even from way down here.

I'm spending time with my family in Bandon in 10 days. What is it like there? I hear it clear up once we get there.

I agree there are ways he has to find. I don't know if that means driving less and taking less of those threes we see or what but it's tough because I'm sure if cj isn't going one night, dame probably feels like he has to get going and vice versa. These two are the only offensive threats we have that can get their own off the dribble. It also has to be tough because dame has to set these other guys up who aren't really offensive threats. Tough situation all around, we need that lottery pick and hopefully pick up a third player who can really make an impact next year

The Blazers lost

 

[PCmor7]

We still can achieve my goal of 16 wins.

CJ's mid-range game >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lillard's.

This frontcourt is hot garbage. Aminu is a backup on a good team. Vonleh shouldn't be starting. Plumlee is developing imto a quality starter though.

 

[MickZagger]

Elfrid Payton is who I thought he was.

Baller.

A 4 page game thread...that's anemic for a thread around S2

It's Bc we suck this year a lot of band wagon fans

Cj might be better then Lillard period

It's beautiful here. Small town vibe. I'm at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort playing. Terrific courses, links style, nothing like it. Old school, caddies only, best thing this side of Scotland.
Amazing beaches, you'll love it. Have a great time!

I love it down there

I figured these nerds were standing in mile long lines to see Star Wars

Game started at 4 pm. Some people work.

 

[Strenuus]

I was out doing stuff, but listening to the game on the radio the whole time.

These east coast games almost always have low turnouts if it's a weekday game.

The 2nd part of this comment is just flat wrong.

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

So....because we don't drop everything in our lives to watch every single game, while hanging out on SC2, making comments like "nice shot" or "CJ!" while reading your consistently negative comments, we're band wagon fans??? Is that what I'm hearing?? Hmmmm.......give me a ladder for that wagon instead of the "we suck and so does Damian" wagon you seem to have your ass stuck to the seat of. Everyone has their own style of fandom. Get over it and show some respect.

 

[Blazers Roy]

Meyers looked great out there!

Don't see much "development" from Vonleh, even though that is supposedly why we are starting him. He has to be the worst starter in the NBA.

Wait till tomorrow. 10am geek time!

Come on man.....

 

[Sinobas]

After all these years, I wish we'd have just kept Zach Randolph......

 

[Tunchi]

Come on man.....

It's def debate worthy. Right now? Lillard probably is better but whose to say by next year Cj won't be? This is only his first time with this type of role. I can only imagine another summer with this type of confidence he has now what he'll do.

He's more efficient, he might be a better 3 point shooter, his mid range game is better I think, dame has him in the athleticism category though but everything else is debatable

 

[Sinobas]

CJ is better at those mid range pull up jumpers. I don't think he's a better shooter though, Dame hoists up more low percentage 3s. Dame much better and getting to the rim, and Dame has much better PG skills, which is important for a guy who is only 6'3.

Hehe, i think about it too.
I said it before: Thug loyalty is underrated.
