7 for 21 from 3!

Maybe that's what Lillard can work ok this summer. Finding ways to get to the line

How do you work on that? Take a class on whining from CP3?

How do you work on that? Take a class on whining from CP3?

Watch film on how defenders are coming. Then learn drives to really force contact. Maybe some acting classes?

 

[Natebishop3]

For some reason we seem to have trouble with the Cousins, Monroes, Sullingers of the NBA.

The contact is there man, the refs just haven't been calling it. The only thing you can improve on is acting or being able to take the contact and still finish. That's all you can do.

Because LA can't check them. Lopez isn't quick enough to defend them all game either.

 

[DUB]

So what exactly does Dame have to do to get respect from the refs?

I'll always remember B-Roy saying it wasn't in his nature, but he realised that he'd have to be vocal if he wanted any calls.

That's when he developed his patented "HEY!"

He needs a broy "hey!" When contact is made

He's penetrating, just not getting the calls.

That's 50% from 2.

 

[Natebishop3]

Wow..... that's the luckiest shot I've seen so far.

 

[LuckyShot]

Pffffft...

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Wallace is so bad from 3. Kills me to see him hit that.

 

[PapaG]

Lillard gets called for that foul? What the hell. That happens to him every single time he drives to the hoop.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

LOL the nerdy yelp.

 

[magnifier661]

Are you serious?!?!

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

He needs a broy "hey!" When contact is made

A yelp! Totally. That's exactly what Roy started doing his soph year.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

That's 50% from 2.

Yes, yes it is.

 

[DUB]

I don't have a problem with them calling a carrying, but I wish they were consistent in how they called it.

Wanting consistency from NBA refs?

 

[Natebishop3]

A yelp! Totally. That's exactly what Roy started doing his soph year.

It's sad that we have to resort to that kind of thing to get calls.

 

[Natebishop3]

I would rather have Olynyk in there.

 

[LuckyShot]

Sweet move by Aldridge.

 

[magnifier661]

What about that foul refs!

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

If we let these guys stay close, they're gonna steal this from us. LA getting nasty. Me like.

 

[magnifier661]

Damn there you go!

 

[Natebishop3]

The drop in overall talent from Wallace was so rapid... very sad. I always enjoyed watching him.

 

[Darkwebs]

Joel doing work down low. Love his hustle

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I'd love to have Wallace back.

 

[Natebishop3]

Good get a few fouls on Sullinger.

 

[LuckyShot]

I hate when Aldridge does that deep step back. Such a weak move and he's not that good at it.
