Except like all of his career he plays awful or disappears during playoffs or crunch time. CJ may have great games in the Reg. season but when it comes to playoffs he'll shat the bed. Even when he was in Portland. We all saw it 1st hand in that series they played us
Lol because you just watch pelican games. He helped the blazers beat the nuggets and get to west conf finals. He overall has pretty solid averages in the playoffs. He didn’t have great playoffs against suns or against us but the other 6 years hes been solid to really good. I think 6 out of 8 years is pretty good. People need to stop this false narrative.

It's fun to just say things we think are true huh.
not including his first two years in the league where he didn't play as much,
he's played in 52 playoff games and has averaged 23ppg shooting 38% from 3. 10 of those 52 were 30+ point games. But sure he disappears in the playoffs. 12 of those 52 he had under 18 points (and 4 of those were 17 or 16). His team was blown out in all but 3 of those 12 games.
His team was suprisingly 4-6 when he scored 30+. If there's one thing i took away from that arse whipping we gave them with Jrue and that dickbag, is that CJ never gave up and played his arse off in that sweep unlike that other superstar on his team.

Never have liked BI’s game or seeming passion level for winning. My gut is that he’d much rather be the best player on a bad team, make an all star game on occasion, etc over winning a championship is the 3rd option.
For a team to win a championship with BI, he’s a 3rd option at best guy.
He has refused to be aggressive with what he’s been asked to do - shoot open arse 3’s and aggressively on 3’s within the flow of the offense, not dribble the fricking air out of the ball and shoot a 19 foot fadeaway with 3 defenders on him, rebound, play D.
He go my better on D and to an extent in rebounding during second half of year, but he just doesn’t agree philosophically on offense it seems. So, he needs to go….Without Zion, we suck… without BI depending on the matchup, it seems we get better usually.
We were #1 in the West last year with Zion only as BI was basically out for the first part of the year with some bullshite.
CJ, offense can be BI-ish at times, but he also has a lot of games where he’s more of a catch and shoot guy. He’s trying. However, his defense is dog shite and as someone else said, it’s only going to get worst with his age. He was unplayable against the Lakers on D almost as much as his shite O performance. I could go either way with him, but would like to keep him knowing that he needs to be hidden defensively.
