He is also averaging over 15 shots per game, but he's not a chucker
Dude, I'm not bashing anyone. Lillard isn't even close to Paul's calibre as a rookie. That's just a fact. Paul had no help, and Lillard has Mathews, Batum, and LMA. That's a lot of help. Plus, you are looking at raw statistics, which is a mistake.
Are you really going to try and tell me that Lillard isn't an inefficient chucker? That isn't me hating on the kid. That's just me reminding people to stop looking at just points per game, which doesn't mean ****. I've watched him play, and his passes rarely land where they should. Half of his assists seem to come from feeding LMA in the post. His shot selection is poor, but not as poor as his defense is. But sure, he's having the same rookie season as Chris Paul.
You people need to pump the breaks. Good Lord.
