    Would you trade West for LMA straight up?

    The real fans picked the Blazers to win.

    People fly at LMA unless it's a total defensive breakdown. We were sagging back and letting West dial it up. LaMarcus was in foul trouble and was afraid of running at him and getting a 6th foul when West put the ball on the floor, so he just let him shoot without really challenging. West knew he had freebies in the 4th. That does wonders for your confidence.

    If he'd rather have West shooting those shots in the 4th over LMA, how can he not want West over LMA?

    What makes you think we ever gave you one? You still smell like a rookie around here.

    West is strictly pick and pop. He is actually a pretty good fit for Indy.

    Rolo played one hell of a game! He just doesn't get much credit.

    The cynic would ask how many points Clyde gave up that night, and if he had to be pulled from guarding his counterpart.

    Dame is a great offensive player because he's so quick, which makes it bewildering to me why he can't get into a defensive stance. I don't care if guys blow by him, but he stands lock-legged. You have no shot at defending penetration if you don't even try to get into a proper position.

    He never spent this off season with him. GP blew him off once he got the gig with Fox Sports1.

    Did he even have THIS offseason with GP? I heard nothing about them actually getting together. Just talk about how they would.

    Really?? And then he goes and talks shit about how there are only 3 good PGs (due to lack of Defense). Then he names Tony "no defense" Parker as one of them?

    WTF GP? I'm sure Dame would try to glean anything he could from you...

    Top 4 teams have all gone to lose at least 1 now. So it doesn't hurt as bad right now, thankfully.

    I just want to whip Minny a new one though.
