    Minny's bench is disgusting on defense though.

    Trail Blazers PR ‏@TrailBlazersPR Portland has reached its win total from the previous year (33) faster than any other time in team history by games (44) and date (Jan. 25).

    A win tomorrow would be gravy. 8 games in 12 days, and 5-2 so far on that excessive quirk on the schedule.

    So this is the biggest bounce back from a bad record in Blazers history? Kick ass!

    33 wins feels like a big big milestone to me this year. I'm glad it happened so soon.

    Close but depends if we can have a monster finish.

    PHX bouncing back after they got Nash is pretty hard to beat.

    From 29 wins in 03-04 to 62 in 04-05

    Read the tweet again. It said "any other team" in terms of games and date. Not overall record at the end of the season. That's all I was talking about.

    Edit: Fuck. I read it wrong. My bad. Another fail tonight.

    Funny how effective it can be to have a good coach along with an NBA caliber roster.

    The Bench. They stepped up tonight. It was their energy that stretched the lead in the second and fourth. Not the starters. Thomas Robinson's stats aren't mindblowing. But to me he continues to grow and grow. Love his prescence. CJ McCollum. Both he and the team are holding him back. The team on multiple occasions will not even pass him the ball when he is open. He to me isn't aggressive enough. I know he is just playing in the flow of the offense. Which is good. He just has so much more. Both he and TRob do.

    On this note. I understand why LA is excited and why he thinks next year is their year. I expect TRob and CJ to really blow up next year. Give Dame one more year under his belt with LA's leadership. The league will need to be be aware. Be very aware.

    Fucking Jaynes knocking Aldridge for getting 6 rebounds. He irritates the hell out of me.

    Think about it this way. We outrebounded them by 10 and we won. If you want to look at some stats, Love had just 1 offensive rebound (he averages a little over 3) and it was an air ball where he was in a terrible position to get the rebound if it had hit the rim. I credit LaMarcus for keeping Love off the offensive boards, and sacrificing his own stats in the process so his team could grab the loose rebounds instead of Love. Nic, Wes, and Robin all had above average rebounding games tonight. Love also only made 4 baskets tonight. He was a non-factor. He got shut down. LaMarcus had an off game, but still managed 9 FGs and 21 points and led his team to victory. That's the difference between Love and Aldridge.
