Occasionally. He's right about the Kings' love for bloated, overpriced contracts.

Guys, Lillard is not underrated. He became an all-star in his second year and was on the cover of NBA Live 15. He is still improving and his popularity continues to rise along with it. Just in his third year, it will take a bit more time for him to start being mentioned along with the likes of CP3, Steph CUrry, etc.

But you can argue that he's already entering that conversation, and certainly should be mentioned alongside someone like Mike Conley.

Lol so Paul sucks because he doesn't dunk like lillard or Westbrook

He lacks beautiful numbers.

No, but he has limited finishing ability because of his lack of vertical, Floaters/runners are great, but Paul can't contort his layups against the defense like Dame or Wes can. And just because I use phrases like "above the D" I don't mean literally.
And the irony of your post Menopauss is that at least we're smart enough to spell like correctly.
@Andrew, I completely agree. Lillard's higher up than Irving is (not saying that it's a shock considering his team just snagged and MVP candidate.).

It's statements LIEK this that prevent me from having a rational discussion with a fool like yourself.

But just to shut your oligofriend ass:

TS% Paul>Lillard
PER Paul>Lillard
TO Paul>Lillard
USG Paul>Lillard
WS Paul>Lillard
A/36 Paul>Lillard
R/36 Paul>Lillard
S/36 Paul>Lillard (Because guys like you rely on stats to measure defensive effectiveness, he is the better defender btw)

The only category in which Lillard outplays Paul is that of scoring. The thing is Paul doesn't have to score so much, and he has better percentages. Statement after statement you prove you're a dumb 15 year old who just started playing 2k.

Can I quote myself from couple weeks ago?

Stephen Curry could likely be the best long range shooter in league history. It's just insane. You don't stop him, you can only hope to slow him down.

Chris Paul and Curry are the best point guards in the league and I honestly can't tell who is better atm. They are clearly better than Kyle Lowry and Damian Lillard. These four though surely separated themselves from rest of the pack so far.

So my list right now would be...

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Godlike: Paul & Curry
1st Tier Stars: Lowry & Lillard
2nd Tier Stars: Conley & Collison
3rd Tier Stars: Jennings, Wall, Rondo, Jrue, Knight, Dwill
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Rondo's value is really unique. I'm inclined to believe he's probably close to 2nd tier maybe. Rondo's largely the ugliest scorer in this list but he's by far the best assist guy + rebounder. Say, he rebounds as well as Ibaka and Boozer(this is CRAZY bcuz he'd be a solid rebounder even if you considered him a PF), and only Rubio (who played more than x2 fewer minutes) is slightly ahead of him while leading CP3 by comfy margin in assist.

Darren Collison inclusion in 2nd tier also should be a surprise. But it's true. He's been tremendous so far. He's been crucial for the Kings. I don't know tbh if he can keep it up though.


I actually love all top 4 PGs. They've separated themselves from rest of the pack. I don't think any of 2/3rd tier guys can replace them and do as well. In contrast if you replace any of those lesser PGs with top 4 PG, the team will improve by large margin. But result can vary if you switch places among top 4 pgs. It's possible the team can do just as well with Lillard/Lowry in place of Paul/Curry though latter have been better. Important thing is that those 4 guys are the top tier PGs and all are good in their own distinctive ways.

Lol at least I don't waste my time stalking said 15 year old on a basketball forum, fag.
And Lillard's three years in, what the hell do you expect?

You post in the same topics I visit. Don't hate me because I point out your blatant stupidity and cluless knowledge for the game.

Lold @ using words like fag etc. You don't have any rational arguments so you convert to using words for idiots, you idiot.

Did you really just write this. After raving how Lillard is better than Paul, you now go all "what do you expect from him"

You're a joke.

Re: Spurs Vs Blazers- Triple OT

Tue Dec 23, 2014 2:22 am

Stupidity? That's the biggest word I've seen you type. I'm impressed you even spelled that correctly.
And just because I said Lillard's better than Paul you get all butthurt and point out stats. I don't care about stats, I care about my observation and eye tests. And just from eye, Lillard is the better scorer, athlete, and has a better balance of when to distribute than from when to score. And if you honestly can't understand what an OPINION is, then you're the ignorant one in this conversation.
I'm going to reiterate one more time to get this through your thick skull.
IN MY OPINION, Lillard is better than Paul. Will people like you disagree? Yes. Do I give a shit? No, I don't. Should you even bother to comment if you're just going to say something stupid like "you're an idiot."? No, you shouldn't. It's my opinion. I don't care if you guys disagree, not one bit. If you actually have a rational argument I will listen, but I will not change my opinion.
In short, back off Menopauss. I've seriously had enough of you. If you had any common sense you'd back off and stop calling me an idiot just because I disagree with you. You're the type of close-minded bastard that thinks banning guns would really stop people from murdering each other.
Just fucking back off.

Because stats are a reliable way to point out a players true worth.

I don't care about stats,


That's because you're an idiot.

Lol.

LOL wtf are you smoking. Can you prove this statement, which is horribly wrong by the way, or will you again rely on your eye test? Obama is white by the way, it's just my eye test observation.

IN MY OPINION, Lillard is better than Paul.


That's because you're what? You've guessed it :wink:

Yes. Do I give a shit? No, I don't


So hardcore.

. Should you even bother to comment if you're just going to say something stupid like "you're an idiot."?


I ocasionally bring up stats, but you choose to ignore them and rely on 2k for ranking players.

In short, back off Menopauss. I've seriously had enough of you


I love you

Idiot.

You're the type of close-minded bastard that thinks banning guns would really stop people from murdering each other.


What the hell does this have to do with ANYTHING? what even made you believe that. You're what? You've guessed it, or as that annoying NBA commentator would say, YOU BETCHA.


Just fucking back off.


Never back down.

Idiot.
