    It's not spirit and belief im your club. Ok Bucks are strong, but who is the first in West at the moment (after all)? Who beat Bucks few days ago? :)

    Good win. Dame, CJ, Nurk, and ET all played well.

    I feel like they need his defense and I think the fouls and lack of good touches on offense are starting to effect his Defense. He has really, really good footwork, just get him some easy shots.

    The blazers really did not play bad tonight. Knicks were just hot.

    It’s so easy to gameplan for Portland. Dame and CJs individual ability masks how basic the offense is. Did we run one post up for Nurk? Nevermind any of the other players who are just spectators. It’s great that we’re winning, but this looks like another quick exit in the playoffs unless they learn to lean on each other more consistently.

    A win, but a moral loss.

    The Knicks are utter gah-bidge.

    Leonard was key, especially with Zach struggling. Blazers will need a huge effort from bench tomorrow night. Dame looked exhausted late tonight. Still hit the clutch shot, and tipped the ball to a teammate on Knicks last shot. CJ was smooth and clutch tonight. Maybe his best game this season. Hats off to the Knicks. They hit their shots and were physical with the Blazers. They clogged the paint and didn't allow Nurk to get much going in the second half offensively.

    Maybe for you. A win is a win. Other top teams are losing these, or don't you pay attention to that.

    Meyers swish3’s were very beneficial to securing the victory. His team high accuracy on this shot makes him a logical choice for attempting more swish3’s.

    Again, they clogged the paint. Didn't allow Nurk to set up shop down there tonight. Enes Kanter is a quality player. Noah Vonleh played quality ball tonight.

    His P&R defense has always been good, tonight he was excellent. He's getting some confidence on offense I suppose with the extra usage, but I still don't see him as being anything more than a rotation player off the bench.

    The only reason he was traded to CHI was for his contract. He got us under the tax. Trading Biggie would have done nothing.
