He's not an historically bad shot blocker, merely far below average for a 7 footer.
He's Brook Lopez with 3 point range. :lmao
Would you trade him for Splitter, may truly be the question. Lillard isn't Parker, but someday he could be. He's damn good already, though.
When was the last time a Spur PF or C not named Tim scored 29 points?
I'm guessing Blair?
Who other than Blair? And when was that?
The last time a Spurs big could play offense other than TD was the Admiral, tbh...
PF is the Spurs' biggest weakness, but the only things the Spurs need in that regard is someone who plays solid post D and can finish on the PnR or shoot from 3 even.
Unluckily Bargs doesn't play solid D, just passable D, and that's with a defensive-minded coach in Dwane Casey.
EDIT: I seem to remember Malik Rose scoring 34 once.
I can't believe such an outrageous proposition turned into a 4 page thread.
Do it .
Tired of this one-eye TP .
It's not that outrageous. Lillard is already good and will likely be an All Star or on the fringes for the next ten years. He's also gifted at distributing the ball and can shoot. This thread was about Lillard. Andrea is a scoring threat (and we haven't had one and Splitter even doesn't really for a defensive threat, I'm afraid).Quote:

Let's hope it doesn't matter, but when my eye got fucked so did my shooting and when I had to wear glasses when I played, it made it even more difficult. I don't look at my hands when I dribble, but that ball just disappeared from my periphery. I think Lillard's a sure thing. He's a righty that makes you think he's a lefty and he's so good at that, his arsenal is incredible.
But Lillard is not available at #6.Quote:

Since Tony doesn't shoot very far out, I hope that it doesn't affect him, what worries me more is what these glasses will do to his dribbling-periphery.Quote:

Lazyness is not tolerated on the Spurs and as far as Lillard he better be able to handle pressure from coach like Tony did. Terrible trade unless Bargnani was all that I mentioned above.
You want to know what's crazy? If he had Matt Bonner's work ethic he'd be one of the best players in the world. Bargnani's lazy as can be. I'm a fan though of him as a player.
