    Dame flung that ball back at the inbounder... he's showing some frustration.

    I was 100% certain we'd play down to them. I feel like the team knows it will too, and tries to pretend like it won't in pre-game interviews.

    Dame is still not over the Kings passing on him in the draft when he shot lights out in his pre-draft workout for them. He always seems to go off in Sacramento.

    This team has made no progress in the past 2 years. They rely on either CJ or Dame to have monster nights one on one just to stay in games.

    We're not playing down to them. They're playing up to us! Not for long though. We'll win easily in the end.

    CJ has a way of making super diffcult shots look easy.

    Blazers with 11 turnovers vs 3 for Sacremento, that's the big difference in the game.

    And for team that doesn't run fast breaks and does so much 1 on 1 dribbling, I don't know how they can excuse so many turnovers.

    Great teams rely on their best players to win.
