    And was benched with a short leash by our most honorable coach.
    More fodder for Canning Ham this summer.

    The Coach of the Year for knowing how to light the fire of this talented but unfocused player.

    still can't believe we didn't have enough firsts to add to him in order to trade him for dinwiddie.

    oh wait.

    Anthony Irwin's fat a** hiding in a corner somewhere and only comes out when DLO has a subpar game...

    I hope DLO balls the f*** out in the playoffs this year...cuz if he does, we are likely at least in the WCF again.

    Love seeing him thrive here....and to be shooting 42% from 3 is insane esp given the struggles other shooters have when they put on the purple and gold.

    Honestly, I thought that was the trend. He's stayed remarkably healthy *knocks on wood* this season, is playing his heaviest minutes for consecutive seasons, too.

    It's really been fun and a treat watching him play this season. Best we've ever seen him play and I guess his best season as a Pro. Hope he can keep it up if we're in the playoffs.

    i expect that as the stakes go up, his performance will dip. this is true of non superstars. he's paid like a 5th starter. lebron and AD need to deliver more against the denvers than they have. we're getting tons of mileage out of the 18 million dlo is making this year.

    It can dip, just not to 6ppg on 32%/13% splits
