Lillard sh*ts himself

[CarlosBoozer]

The whole Blazers team was out there hustling, Lillard was out there chucking :facepalm

He looked like _er_zan out there

Agreed. I like Lillard, but he didn't put the work in and wanted to be the hero.

Lillard had a great season, but his offensive skillset is somewhat limited compared to the other top tier guards. He's not actually as quick as people imagine he is (he runs a 3.4 3/4 court sprint ... Westbrook and rose ran 3.05 or something like that ... huge gap considering the short distance, makes a big difference).

He also seems to lack great craftiness off the dribble. He could not buy himself an easy look at any point in this series, that's the reason he was chucking so much; the 3ball was a more efficient shot for him than any other.

In the midrange area/rim, he simply couldn't change speeds well enough to shake Klay and GSW, or generate the speed to blow by the whole defense, or finish well enough with both hands to score at the rim. When he was missing his 3ball, he was useless. He put up good raw numbers in these playoffs, but his shooting percentage was simply dreadful. The worst part about this game was that the role players came to play, pretty much gave him everything they had, but Dame just doesn't have a diverse enough skillset/size/athleticism to consistently take over a playoff game against an elite defense.


Still, good for him, he'll be a great players for years to come.

Portland played hard every step of the way I like that core they have.

I like Plumlee in todays Center position. He needs more confidence in his shot. Way too many times you saw him rebound and pass it back out. You're a 6'10 athletic big man...DUNK that ish.

Better decision making for Lillard + A solid scoring big man (Al Jefferson pre injury) and this team could be a perennial 4 seed.

I'm sorry but this kid aside from the energy he has which you can't dislike is A TERRIBLE GAME MANAGER!!! I guess this is the new way PG's play, out of control and inefficient!

16-54 in his last two games including 7-26 from 3 point land!!! Dude you're not Steph Curry, NEVER WILL BE!!! Manage the damn game.

When a PG that dribbles so much and has a stronghold on the ball like that is looking to shoot that way you are NOT WINNING D!CK!

Honestly, the Blazers suck ass. The fact they made GS work as hard as they did in some of these games should be scary for the warriors

The Blazers don't suck but I agree. Warriors should be worried. A 44 win team caused problems for a team with the best regular season record of all-time. A team with no bench got them down 12-15 points in 4 straight games.

Lillard tried to out-Curry Curry. No one can out-Curry Curry.

[Klay 3D]

Lillard for Dragic? Plz

Not really considering Curry missed 3 games of the series and had to knock off the rust the final two.

Emar Erzan went off last night but he's still shit.

Actually there is one player that can out curry curry, he plays for the cavs, he is shooting 54% from three in these playoffs, has better handles and just a couple of years ago beat curry out of the starting job for team USA and won MVP of the tourney .while shooting a better percentage than curry ever has. He also outplayed curry game one of last year's finals with a bum leg before he went down. Should be a fun finals :cheers:

To the OP lillard is still young and hasn't reached his full potential, his future is bright.

How did he do when they played in Cleveland this season? You know, when Curry nutted all over them????

Just like everyone has been doing to the Knicks all season long? And will continue to do for the foreseeable future?
