LA is still injured- you try shooting with torn wrist ligaments

geeeez ... no excuses! And, it does not make a good enough excuse for his career.

and, if your wrist hurts then stop shooting long stupid shots.

That's what I was thinking. If your hand hurts, maybe you should sit down.

thats like taking 30 shots and hitting 5 of them and blaming a torn labrum (that you knew about).

Yea and try for shots around the basket.

Are you referring to melo when he had a bum shoulder in the playoffs but it didn't stop him from hoisting 30 bad shots a night?

Maybe you prefer Jason Kidd, your MVP to hoist those shots...

Look at stats or look at his game?

Aldridge would be fine here at the 4, but paired at the 5 is key. Chemistry.

Looks like the genious's here have pegged Towns a future god, while Oka4 a offensive player only.
Need more Youtube scouting highlights with proper angry urban rap music before I can decide.

Because taking it inside with a torn wrist makes sense? Do you really think the blazers would have a better chance if he sat out? He's gutting it out like Melo did- not playing well but blazers have more of a chance with him playing, same as we did with Melo. Shows commitment and heart, which some of us value as much as you do efficiency

too often bad shot selection is excused by many as the player being hurt, gutting it out, etc ...

hit the open man

take smart shots

players who take questionable shots take them if they are hurt or not.

he does not have a complete game. his game has big holes holes, too big to gloss over. so he can't do other things to make up for bad shooting. like defense. like setting up teammates with crisp pocket passing. eerily similar to melo.

What is he a PG or a PF??..He defense is adequate..And nobody's game is perfect..

every player worth a damn and regardless of position should be able to make plays for others when necessary, not just be finishers or one on one guys. if he were more versatile he would find opportunities for others but as it is he has upped his fga every season the last 3 or 4 years. that is a negative trend. over time veterans worth a damn tighten up their games, not loosen their games.
