    Damian Lillard's seven games of 30+ points in March are tied with James Harden for most in the NBA.

    Why? Dame Time is the last 2 mins of the game. That wasn't Dame Time, that was Ball Hog Time. Bad, very bad.

    The Trail Blazers improve to 9-3 in March, the 3rd-best record in the NBA this month (SA/MIL, 10-3).

    Noah Vonleh has tied his career high with 12 rebounds (2 other times, both with Charlotte).

    Dame put game away early and rested for dame time. He must be injured or maybe hates the lack of night life in portland.

    If Damian could play the way he does when he's pissed, he'd be such a better player. And thats saying a lot, because he's already really good.

    I would love to see him do some more Baron Davis/Stevie Francis dunks on people.

    I'm not sure if we even need him anymore. You notice Stotts benched for the last 2 mins of the game.

    I think Dame did a great job tonight at both ends of the court. Really pick up his defense. But what he did really good he got Nurk involve in the 4th and that open the outside for open 3 that put the game away. Nothing he did wrong at the end he took ball to the hoop instead shooting a bad 3.

    CJ is our key to building a championship contender. And I mean as trade bait.
