Spurs Vs Blazers- Triple OT

I think this game deserves a thread of it's own.
Let me start off the thread with a bang, with one sentence.
That was fucking awesome.

Lillard is good. [/thread]

Good is looking more and more like a grand understatement.

He posted this before his last game vs the Bucks

LOL @ him not being one of 11 guys picked. also LOL @ Rose and how Curry isn't #1 on either list. and this proves how inept Isiah Thomas was at evalutaing talent/running a team.

Okay, like Greg Anthony's list is semi-acceptable other than the blatant lack of Paul. But, Isiah. Isiah. How did Tony Parker get up there? Was he watching 2009 playoff highlights or something?

Rose isnt even going to be in my Top 10, tbh

Agreed. Rose isn't the same guy.. And Paul (in my opinion) is number 8.
This has to be the best game of the year. (Grizzlies Vs Spurs was a close second)
My list: (Best to "worst")
Russell Westbrook (incredible athlete, scorer, and has also become a better leader)
Stephen Curry (Do I even have to explain?)
John Wall (great finisher and dimer.)
Damian Lillard (Great scorer, high IQ, knows when to distribute and when to score, as well as clutch as fuck #AskParsons)
Kyrie Irving (great shooting, should have a higher percentage)
Mike Conley (great defender, high IQ, decent distributor)
Rajon Rondo (he'd be higher if not for his shooting. /: )
Chris Paul (great leader, but not much in terms of beautiful numbers. Struggles to be assertive at times)
Jrue Holiday (he'd be higher if he was a better shooter and was more assertive.)
Ty Lawson (has developed into somewhat of a leader, seems to have a better attitude than people give him credit for).

Curry should be no. 1 on their lists imo. LMFAO @ Rose.

Chris Paul (great leader, but not much in terms of beautiful numbers. Struggles to be assertive at times)

wat

LOL Conley at number 5.

Again you have no clue what you're talking about.

What a joke.

Is it really necessary to have the spoiler in the thread title?

What a joke.

Lol if you don't like it, why don't you just get the #### out of here instead of wasting bandwith to make snide, bland, wasteful comments?
@benji And yeah, Chris Paul does struggle to be assertive at times. Why? I could guess it would be his average athleticism, and not being able to finish as well.

Curry, Paul, Westbrook, Lowry and Lillard would be my top 5. Conley and Wall are in the conversation though!

Wall has improved way beyond what I was expecting this year from him, TBH.

Another triple ot at AT&T Center, another loss by Spurs.

@benji And yeah, Chris Paul does struggle to be assertive at times. Why? I could guess it would be his average athleticism, and not being able to finish as well.

I meant the "lack of beautiful numbers" part.

Isaiah Thomas & Greg Smith = Stephen A Smith & Skip Bayless



Lamrock has it right on top 5 PGs btw.

What more does cp3 have to do?? He's shooting over 50%, 88% ft, 37.5% from 3, 17.5 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 10 apg, 2 spg, and is in the top 5 for fewest tpg out of all starting pgs. If that isn't "beautiful numbers", I dunno what is. Just because he doesn't shoot 100 times a game, score 30 ppg, and turn the ball over 4 times a game like Westbrook doesn't mean he's not a top pg in the league.

I'm not saying CP3 isn't talented, or one of the best. I'm saying that he doesn't have the explosive burst that Lillard does, nor the passing Rondo has. Paul may have better shooting, yes, but Rondo still managed to average 11 asts with targets like Avery Bradley and Kelly Olynyk.

Just use Anthony Mason tactics. Hold the ball for 23 seconds, pass.

Lillard probably gets overlooked to a certain extent because of Aldridge. Aldridge is the more established player, not to mention a 20 and 10 player in a league where that's not quite as common as it once was. It probably contributes at least a little to Lillard not getting his due.

Lol if you don't like it, why don't you just get the #### out of here

It's not that I don't like your comments(they are so idiotic I actually love them) it's just you actually have no clue what you're talkign about. Too much 2k.

And yeah, Chris Paul does struggle to be assertive at times.

This just proves my point.

, and not being able to finish as well.

This too.

I'm saying that he doesn't have the explosive burst that Lillard does

Did you just start watching the NBA ?

but not much in terms of beautiful numbers

Basically everything you said in this thread made you look dumb. Lack of beautiful numbers. What he should shoot 30 shots per game average 35 points on poor % ? How old are you ?

Dude that's none of your business. Considering you collect pictures of girls, (not trying to be rude, just making my point) you could be a pedophile for all I know.
And dude Paul doesn't have the burst Lillard does, are you kidding? Ever since his injury back in NOLA, he's not as assertive attacking the rim. Paul may have better floaters and runners, but in terms of finishing above the D, Lillard's got the advantage over Paul by a large margin.
And stop being such a dick, until you can say something logical (and back it up) I'm not going to gratify you with any responses.
@Andrew, how is this jackass still allowed here?

Trust me, we all ask that question. But eh, he sometimes has a point.
