    Easy win for the Blazers with fair refs. But let's be real, it's the NBA.

    Ridiculous choke. No FGA with the lead in the final minute. One score wins that. Missed opportunity.

    CJ really looked gassed basically the entire 4th quarter.
    Disappointing.

    That's absurd. The refs didn't loose this game for the Blazers.

    I aint mad at Nurk on that play. Superstar made a superstar play. Hats off to Giannis.

    What I am mad at, is CJ dribbling into the double team with Dame WIDE open to his left. He passes it, we still have 5 on the clock and Dame makes something happen there.

    That play cost us the game. Not Nurk.

    The Bucks are such a bad matchup for us (size wise) but at least we fought.

    Still though, Nurkic needs to back up all that talk in the summer and all that play he showed us last season. He's losing money.

    Are people turning on Nurk already? I thought he played fine today.

    Half of Giannis's game is traveling and getting FTs. The other half is extreme athleticism, which is impressive.
