...now that Lillard has finally confirmed this "rumor" to be true -- does anyone know if surgery would actually fix this recurring issue??
 
Not that he cares what I think, but he should get himself fixed, and let the team survive without him and see who can do what. It's the only way they can truly get better, esp if it's an injury that will dog him all year.

report is the injury has dogged him throughout his career. IIRC, he has missed a couple of games, here and there, with it. Does anybody know if it is even correctable with surgery?

.500 isn't going to get it done. If you're happy with .500 then I'm guessing that you're expecting to be trading Dame by the end of the year.

Here we go again with this bullshit! NOBODY is “happy” with .500……. But it’s what the talent level on this team is going to deliver at best. If you thought there’d be more wins preseason because of the NEW coach and influx of talent to our bench that is now SO much better than last season, that’s on YOU bro. Setting yourself up for failure once again. You got your new coach, cause you know, that was the problem. Remember it wasn’t the roster. Just because some can accept that the team isn’t going to the finals, doesn’t mean they are happy with it. Just realistic.

The bench hasn't been the problem. If anything, the bench has over performed.

Well as you now I’m not a numbers guy. Would love to have an expert on here show us comparisons from last years and this years bench so far, it would be interesting. If we are losing it doesn’t matter right? Remember for a couple years we had like the lowest scoring bench in the league, but that was because our starters killed it. Ant has really stepped up is great to see, and Nas to an extent. Like I said, I’m using the old eye test and how many times I type their names during the game to tell me who is and isn’t playing well. Saw a super slow-mo look at Nance ripping into Nurk towards the end of the game. I wasn’t about to show that on air, but did anybody else catch that? Wow!

Oh I saw it and thought it was good to see someone held accountable for a very silly costly mistake.

also as one gets older these type of injuries start to effect you more and can become chronic, which Dame's may be at now.

4th quarter when Nance dropped a dime to Nurk and he couldn't handle it. Not sure if we showed it on air though. I had 12 cameras to look at last night. That's how I saw it. It was right after the turnover as they were trotting back down to the defensive end.

Too early to judge. Suns started season 8-8 last year and made finals. Not sure why Blazers would go from 42-30 last year to 41-41 this year. Core is the same and players like Simons are improved. We have Powell for whole season this year. Might have CJ and Nurk all year this season, knock on wood.

Maybe you missed the title of this thread? If this is honestly true and Lillard is dealing with another or the same abdominal injury? This year will not be as good as last year.
 
I think it's weird that during the post game interviews no reporter asks him if his shot is falling when he's practicing or if he's struggling then too. It seems that would be an important thing to know. If they're falling when he's getting them up while practicing then we know it's not a physical thing if not then maybe it is.

Too early to judge? Bro, you made a thread to trade Dame 3 games ago. You wanted to abandon Dame a week into the season lol.

It's like talking to my wife about paint colors or linoleum flooring.

curious that 5 of these 8 played in (or trained for) the olympics.

I still say it has more to do defense. Defenses had to fear all the cheap ass fouls that were called last year. Offensive players are having harder time getting space, if there was a way to track it I’m guessing Dame is getting his shot blocked more this year then previous years

I saw that also thought during time out as CJ had just through up a shit shot coach told him that’s not a good shot

I saw it in live action. Couldn’t read his lips, but Nance was not happy and was letting Nurk know about it. I couldn’t tell if it was just because of the blown play or if he was responding to something Nurk said to him.

i scrolled aNd didn't see this? When did he confirm? Did i miss it?
 
Dames TS% this year vs recent years factored by his FGA and FTA is costing us 7 points per game. That’s enough to turn a championship contender into a 41-41 team.

“I’ve played with it for a few years now, so I’m kind of immune to playing with it,” Lillard said. “I’ve played well, done a lot of things with it being irritated.”

Dame on his abdominal injury. So please no more is he injured excuses.

You prove that Dame has been playing injured for a long time. Therefore it can’t possibly be his injury catching up with him. Please no more Aldo logic.

I used to drink way too many cans of Coke in my 20’s. It was no problem. In my 30’s I started getting severe back spasms from excess Coke and sugar. 30’s is not 20’s.
 
Is he hurt? Is it a slump? Is he smarter and more sophisticated than Simmons?

I just wish the other shoe would drop and get it over with. Dragging it out just tortures the fans.
