    I've just watched game recap, so just 9mins. Can you tell me: Have Crabbe won us a game in last mins? I mean we've got defenders in Portland?
    And I saw Vonleh just two - times standing, hesitating - he was like really didn't know what he supposed to do. This two times looked like he was back in his shy guy days again. Someone needs to tell him he needs to stay on gangsta mode.
    I love Aminu makin noise after he dunks - seems he's not homeless banjo man anymore. Attitude is big part of the game. Do we have it yet?

    Oh my god, is this a thing? I want to know why this is a thing. Why have I not heard of Aminu the homless banjo man yet? Please tell me there's a video of him on youtube playing a banjo under the burnside bridge!!!

    What was so impressive about this game was the way that they closed. Houston came from 13 back to tie it at 105 and had all the momentum. The Blazers dug down deep, steadied themselves and finished on a 12-2 run. That is a quality way to finish a game.

    I think with about 4 minutes left we were shooting 14% for the quarter....so yeah, the end was phenomenal. I was yelling and pumping my fist at the plays - I hadnt done that for most of the year.

    Tunchi doesn't count. He's not a fan, he's a troll. Not the same thing.

    15 AND 5 since Nurk or 75%. That's a 61.5 win season.
    This season only SA and GS are winning at a larger rate.

    That was a fun game - I watched it on League Pass while I was 'working'! Awesome to get so many contributors, not just the standard Dame and CJ. Aminu, AC and Moe were all great as support to the 'Big 3'!

    Hahaha my favorite part of tnt broadcast was "he's amazing 30 points on just 27 shots." That seems terrible to me?
