Prisoners of the moment, some numbers to calm you down

5.8 assists per game (career high)
2.4 turnovers a game
39% from 3 on 7 attempts per game
CJ absolutely shat the bed today. No doubt about it.
But so did the team. And Willie. CJ McCollum is a nice piece on a team that is 100% healthy. And he's hurt, and Zion ain't right, and it sucks, but you have no other alternative and by and large CJ is a guy we need to play well and take shots if we're not 100% healthy.

CJ comes up small when it matters. Who gives a frick about season numbers.
End of story.

9 is the only number that matters.

Games 1-82 equal the same throughout. This game didn't count more than game 81. What you do over the course of 82 games matters. If CJ played like this all season he'd be benched. The problem this board doesn't understand is that he's had far more good games than bad.

He comes up SMALL PERIOD.
You dont get paid 35M a year to disappear in crunch time.
Stop being a fricking victim and have better expectations for your "Max" players.

There have been several crunch time moments this year. CJ has played better in most of them. I'm sorry you can't see simple math. Today sucked. CJ isn't the problem everyone here makes him out to be.

Bro stop. This has been an issue all year. It’s the reason we went on a ten game losing streak. Him being a primary ball handler is losing basketball
These rants aren’t based off of one game. It’s been like this the whole season. The offense flow is stagnant because of how he plays . He’s a selfish shooter who gets tunnel vision and misses wide open guys very often

Like I said, he's a great piece on a 100% health Pels team, and he's a fricking killer when just Zion is playing with him.
Him being the pg is a problem, because it shouldve been B.I. and Zion trading off. He got pushed up one notch in the pecking order and it's been rough.
And yet still, by and large, he's had a good season and played better in most games.

Lol he's averaged a career high in assists this season. He's been fine diming the ball. Stop

Care to suggest which crunch time moment games he was in?
In 82 games you would expect a 35M player to have a Top 3 Win Share on the team.
Guess what HES frickING 12 in WS/48

I’m glad he has good numbers. Maybe another team will trade something worthwhile for him while he has value. Sell high. But griff doesn’t understand that

Having more good games than bad is fine for a mid-level starting player. CJ is being paid like a star. His highs are extremely high, but he has way too many lows.

Of course you’re right; but you had to know our “fans” were going to pile on CJ.

CJ has always been inconsistent, you just refuse to see it. Stop with the hurt thumb, if he is hurt he sits out. BI did it, Zion did it, Jose is doing it. CJ is just using the hurt thumb excuse just like you and all the guys who don't want to admit that CJ is inconsistent and more time than not, he will shoot you out of games. PERIOD

His shooting percentages are literally the worst since his rookie year and his defense has beeb garbage all year. He has missed key free throws all season especially in critical times and didn’t box out the free throw shooter several times today. Yeah hes hurt but hes basically been a bad basketball player for probably 85 percent of the season.
