    It wasn't just a block on Baynes. Rubio had his hand on Dame's back from the foul line the whole way down the lane.

    We play a lot better on D in the 2nd half but our Achilles heal almost cost us late in the game rebounding. CJ and Melo had excellent games tonight.

    If they’re gonna call the hands on the back foul every guard in the league is fouled out by half time.

    he stood around and played with extremely low energy nearly all game. You’re blind.

    Oh I didn’t see that part even in replay too focused on Baines.

    I just wonder did you only watch Dame the whole game and if you did you miss the rest of the game.

    Been a while since I worried about a game. Blazers wins were blowouts or they were clearly losing. This defined nail biter. Hey, all you need is one point more than the other team.

    Well i guess i was wrong on my prediction. Said they would win by 10+ going away.
    Every win on the road is a good win though. No question there.

    The Suns play well. Don't think i have seen another team in the entire NBA move the ball that well. Blazers did a great job adjusting to their style. Started cruising the passing lanes and looking for the dump passes.
    Thing is in the end with the game on the line they didn't have a player like Lillard on the court. We all knew Rubio was not a real threat in that situation. He had to pass out of it. Blazers took advantage of it.

    I’m apparently the only person here that is outraged that we’re paying someone 200 million to walk around all game
