Umm...pretty much every game Lillard has played has been viewable. Especially true if you live within 30 miles of Ogden. Could have watched the game tonight, was on Altitude, but let's not use facts to get in the way of opinion.
His passing is fine. Weber has no athleticism in the front court (he'd feel right at home with Kanter, hyuk hyuk), so it's hard for him to get assists in the pick and roll game. Teams double in the pick and roll all the time, but the bigs aren't good enough to get to the rim. We have a defensive motor big, a plodding post big, and a pick and pop big (where Lillard gets most of his assists to the bigs). None have great hands. Most of Lillard's assists come from motion offense (easy assists, really, if the wing makes the shot), and from fast breaks. Again, if you saw the game tonight (on TV on basic cable [by looking at the lineup, a repeat of the game will be at 10:30 AM Wednesday]), you saw some really tight passes on the break, both giving Wheelwright layups.
Lillard doesn't have the "take over" mentality in games most of the time. He's having trouble getting to the lane in recent games because opposing bigs give our bigs no regard on the pick and roll, and Lillard (and Weber's O) rarely does a 1-4 go one on one set. Weber actually has more success running pick and pop with Bamforth (6-1 gunner) because the two smalls have to respect Bamforth's shot (he's got range, yo), giving Lillard a one on one matchup.
I've seen Lillard play about 20 times this year. What's your excuse?
