    Back to good. Proud of the absolute desire by the Blazers to get this one. Sactown is very improved, and the Blazers Did not quit. But this team doesn't quit. They're fighters.

    Okay yeah, you're right. I can admit when I'm wrong.

    It was historic for a Trailblazer though!

    Blazers need to run a lot of offense through Collins when he's in with he backups. Force him to learn and don't worry about it if he messes up. Just keep doing it.

    First curry struggled now it’s stauskas. Instead of doing the obvious and putting CJ back on the second unit, I hope Stotts gives one of the rookies a chance, even if it’s temporary. At 10-15 minutes, you’re not really risking much.

    Or just get Layman back in there, actually.

    I'll also admit, as high as I am on Nurk's game tonight, one bounce the other way in the King's favor and we lose. Gotta tighten up the third quarter.

    Nurk was great. We’ve got pieces. Just need to put it all together.

    We were forcefeeding him tonight for some reason. He couldn't back down Justin Jackson and seal him. He gets pushed around too easily and when does have the ball, he's slow too methodical with his moves. He's not close to ready.

    Because he thinking about what move he going to do. More experience and get stronger he won't have those problems.

    Nurk the last 4 games been really good on both ends. But our defense in last 4 games been really good especially our front line there starting to tighten it up in the middle. We got 10 blocks tonight. But our Achilles heal is the turnovers we got to get better in that column.

    To be honest, a huge part of our defensive identity is having a healthy Harkless out there.

    Especially when he brings it on a consistent basis like he has of late.

    One smart coaching decision by Terry can't connect the Dotts and we win in regulation.
