    Jake has to be the Starter again, he deserves it. They should go back to:

    Dame
    CJ
    Jake
    Aminu
    Nurkic

    and bench:

    Turn(over)er
    Curry
    Stauskas
    Moe
    Collins

    He'll just come back with another moniker like he did all the other times before.

    Yea Olshey miss one by drafting Swanigan instead of Hart. Hart was on my radar that draft because he was 2 way player.

    So does the first unit lol. I like the idea of layman starting, but he has to get the ball, and has to stop getting vonleh’d. There’s probably more of a chance that happens with the second unit. Either way, he needs a bigger role and more minutes.

    It looks like Covington's hair has chia pet syndrome. We have to focus and play like last night. Curry impressed me. The Wolves are NOT a good road team this year, so far. Play Jake sit Harkless.

    I say play Jake and see if he can continue the offense he opened up last night. We can always put Harkless in if they shoot us out of the building. Like Covington and co did us last time.

    Won't happen, but I'd rather see:
    Dame
    CJ
    Layman
    Collins
    Nurk​

    and bench:
    Turner
    Stauskas
    Moe
    Chief
    Leonard​

    If the Blazers play with intensity, this will be a win!

    So you're guaranteeing a team with a 2-8 road record to win on the road against a team with a 9-4 home record. Do you not see how that's kinda ridiculous?

    What? Filthy?

    I'm not saying we will win. Guaranteeing a loss is silly though.
