There's a whole lot more to winning games than just taking long 3-pointers. And if they aren't falling the coach NEEDS to make adjustments to get his team higher percentage shots. It's been weeks and Terry hasn't shown any ability to help his team when the offense isn't working.
Kyrie knows there's an I in team.
He gets a break from me and his shoe endorsement has nothing to do with a shooting slump in my view.
He simply got into the zone. No defender was slowing down Irving tonight.
Dude it took 3 years for his system to finally sink in on D and the team is ballin hard on that end night in and night out. Can't just give up those 3 years of development on that end on a whim. Offense will catch up with the D soon enough. It too 55 from one player and Dame to continue his historically bad shooting slump for them to barely win. Can't fire a coach on every loss.
36 to irvings 15 the first game last season. 27 - 9 last game. So Irving had a plus 20 this game. So far, Lillard holds scoreboard
Agreed. He's obviously tired ... Wes, too. Those guys have been shouldering the load with RoLo, Freeland, and Batum all banged up as well as LA missing a few games here and there. It's also the middle of January, I can't recall any Blazer team that played well during this part of the season.
Tell that to Golden State and Houston who shoot the threes more than us
He's back!
I think he was referring to the last two Matthews plays
He had an all-time game from 3...Only 2x in history has someone made more than 11, and only 7x in history has someone shot 19 or more. But he was 6-17 in the paint.
There's an I in win.
Yeah man, the dude was unstoppable
I was shocked that they didn't go to a double team on Irving in that last sequence. I understand he is philosophically against doubleteams but when a guy is that hot I think you have to do it.
I agree with this
