Who should get more minutes?


  • Total voters

  • Poll closed .
Damian Lillard has scored 20+ points in 12 straight games, the longest streak by a Trail Blazer since Brandon Roy (15, 12/1/09-1/2/10).

We haven't lost on the road in almost 2 months. lol.
 
We got embarrassed tonight
 
Brian Roberts is better than a garbage time player. But where do his minutes come?

If we're just looking to shake things up, we typically struggle in the second half of the 3rd quarter. That's when Dame takes a rest and CJ runs the point for an extended period. If the offense devolves into CJ dribbling the ball for 18 seconds, we don't score and then get torched on defense. Maybe try putting Roberts in for a few minutes there? I dunno.

This is what I was thinking. We really struggle without a secondary ball handler that is looking to create for others when Dame goes out in the 2nd half. Teams adjust to CJ at the point.
 
I feel bad for Roberts, being put in during garbage time when the team you're playing on gets blown out.
 
Smh I hope you don't think his dad is I. Thomas of the bad boy Pistons. I've actually met his dad and he's a great guy. (My ex used to babysit Isaiah and his sister in Tacoma in the 90s)

What about his mother?
