    The Clippers suck. Wish we could face them in the playoffs again.

    Smackdown first half! Might see some Layman and Napier second half if we keep the pedal to the metal!!

    Did I just hear that the Ducks haven't beaten a Big 10 team since 1939?

    Allen Crabbe's 113 3-pointers this season (2 tonight) are a new career high (112 in 2015-16). He has made a 3-pointer in 13 straight games.

    I think Nurk plays smart...3 fouls in a half for a guy who bangs as much as him is nothin'...Pryzbilla would've fouled out by now.

    Portland's 21-point edge (67-46) is tied for its largest halftime lead of the season (70-49 vs. Washington, 3/11).

    Portland outscored New York off the bench, 27-12, shooting 10-for-16 from the field (4-5 3-PT).

    Nurkic also gets officiated different than most players just because of his size.

    I hope you guys are ready for a healthy dose of Layman. Inside sources tell me that Layman will play around 14 minutes this game.

    What I see really good is the close out on the Knicks players and that make them rushing there shots. The bench been big in the 1st half. I really like Vonleh aggressiveness on the board. Except for Dame the free throw shooting is not very good. But overall good 1st half and so far we are not playing down to our competition. Need come strong in the 3rd though.
