    Blazers are better than their record. Pacers are worse than theirs.

    Ed Davis tied for third behind DJ and Drummond for total offensive rebounds, that's legit.

    He's also 4th in the league in ORtg, behind Iguadola, Curry, and Durant. Dude is a BALLER.

    Our season is 8 wins, 12 losses. First we went 4-6. Then we went 4-6.

    Our Crabbe stock is going through the roof! Good thing we were in on the ground floor.

    I just got back from the game. Nice win! I must say, our second unit was solid tonight. Ed Davis on the boards, and Crabbe with the offense. Great to see that depth. With this team, you never know who's going to step up and perform. 123 points was fun to watch!

    Crabbe is certainly a bright spot. We need to keep him. Can swing between 2-3. Can shoot and defend. Hopefully he is part of the long term plan. Kind of a poor man's Klay Thompson.

    Great win!

    However, I'm starting to wonder if there is enough minutes to go around for all of our bigs? Noah, Mase, Ed, and Meyers are all producing right now and each deserves more playing time than they are getting.

    Reminds me more of Reggie Miller running off screens and scoring on threes and in the midrange.

    The Al Farouq Aminu downturn has only really been on offense. His D has been solid all season. This is the reason why he should continue to start. As much as I like Allen Crabbe, he does not have Aminu's defensive ability.

    Stotts had Wes doing the exact same thing. It's true though that Wesley did take a lot more threes off the dribble than Allen Crabbe. But when you see him taking those flare screens, Wesley Matthews did that all season.
