    Not sure if you guys have noticed but Kevin Love is playing well so far. One assist away from a triple double last night.

    Blazers won this game after realizing they could just switch everything. Even if Porzingis gets switched onto Bazemore or something the Mavericks offense would rather shoot a step back three than give Porzingis an easy post touch.

    Mario seems to be a decent rebounder. He was 2nd on the team tonight with 8. I am not sure rebounding will be an issue with him.

    I fell asleep back on page 19. I was just too exhausted.

    2 point win? I'll take it. I'll update "The Other Side" when I feel like it.

    He knows how to grab a rebound and hold onto it. Collins should take note.

    It's never too early to break out the 'Games Over 500' graph!

    upload_2019-10-27_19-47-47.png

    Even with the opening game loss, the Blazers equal last year's record after 3 games at 2-1.

    Let's keep those Ws coming!

    Ended shooting 26%. I think they missed a lot of good looks, but there was also one too many Luka stepbacks. 2/11 on threes is Westbrick like.

    Sure, but Dame and CJ stopped shooting threes when they knew it wasn't falling.

    By my math, Denver, Sacramento and Dallas had overall 119 three point attempts and have made 46, which is 38.6%, thats not good Defense but also not terrible. Small Sample size

    CJ ... the master of the midrange. CJ recognized today: the midrange game is a weapon.

    I think he is using them correctly; usually near the end in a close game. Some would say a coach might end up not being able to use it if he waits; but i think you can count on the refs making mistakes right up to the end.
