    I was like....uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Then again I was born and raised in Oregon and my family were loggers. Guess people still don't know much about our great state.

    He's pressing. And he's getting no help from these screens as they're just leading to double teams. Feel like he get better looks if he just goes 1 on 1

    CJ is 4-10 and shot horribly last time against the T-wolves too.
    Both Portland's guards have been off shooting lately.

    I'm hoping they rest AD. If they rest Boogie too that would be great.

    That 3rd foul on KAT at the end of the half was great for us. Need to try and get him to a quick 4 at the beginning of second half.

    Agreed. Dame should attack him immediately

    Meyers Leonard is the fucking center. Watch the damn pick n rolls and do some critical thinking instead of hating.

    When you have a beast who rolls hard to the hoop, you have to respect that.

    When you have a C who constantly bricks 3s and always pops, do you really think defenses WON'T smother Dame?

    Dame makes a living on pick n rolls, and Meyers is killing him.

    Vonleh can't shoot, so he rolls. His hands are made of stone though, and when does catch it, he dribbles when he shouldn't, and gets himself stuck.

    Man, seems like this shit happens to the Blazers every year. They get through a rough spot in their schedule, and come to a huge "home stand" and lay an egg.

    So Rubio went 6-7 in the first quarter with 3 assists, finished the half 7-15 still with 3 assists.
    Just need to slow up Wiggins, because Rubio aint going 6-7 in the 3rd. Kat is going to get his due to Portland not having a Center who can bang with him. Just keep him off the glass.

    I'm really surprised we haven't tried to nab a D-League All Star big man that isn't affiliated with an NBA team yet
