Jump shooting rarely wins championships

No matter how nice you find Travis outlaw or friendly Steve Blake may seem to you in post game interviews SOMETHING has to be done about our current roster. As Larry Bird acts as the exception which proves the rule the blazers got blown out of the water by a Rocket team that took advantage of our poor defensive efficiency and our inability to penetrate and score. Every time I watch Outlaw as soon he pulls up and jumps forteen hundred feet in the air to just put up a 15 foot jumpshot I stare at the cieling and ask WHY? On occasion the ball hits the bottom of the net and I rejoice and everything has shifted to an equilibrium of righteousness in my Blazers world. But this just breeds compacency and that is exactly what it seems the Blazers stand for about now.

I would like to think that the flashes of Martell 2 years ago where he took his near Lebron esc frame to the bucket would be a prospect of the future, and we won't have to make a move to improve our offense when it gets down to the nitty gritty but i'm not so sure that is the case.

Honestly i'm not really sure what the tone or purpose of this fan post is. I'm a fan and I wanted to vent my most pressing concern. We need someone who can get to hole who isnt named Brandon Roy. Especially on that second line which takes more outside shots than any team in the NBA should be allotted.

 

K bye Blazers Edge.
