    I glade Stotts left Simons and Skals in the game they both deserve it. Nice come back but bad decision by veterans players was costly at the end.

    Do you bet big bucks on the Blazers every year? You should if you know something nobody else does.

    Not sure what politics has to do with the game.

    If they play with more urgency in the first half maybe they win this one. Oh well. At least it was entertaining.

    Dame - 34 points on 21 shots....outstanding!
    CJ/Melo - 37 points on 37 shots.....ugh.

    ....so why couldn't they get the guy who had 15 points on 9 shots and only missed 2 shots the whole game a few more looks?

    Come on CJ was really good down the stretch of that game, he started bad, but it wasn't him shooting that hurt them. Basically Melo choked a lot.

    Yeah it’s worth giving him credit for. He did adjust and stay with what was working. They were in a position to win at the end. That is the goal on the road.

    Hey guys, you know if we switch the first quarter and let’s say the Blazers was on fire. We’ re still losing this game.

    I try and look at the big picture. CJ was certainly better down the stretch....but they wouldn't have been in such a big hole if he could have hit the broadside in the first half. Shooting as many shots as he does, eventually you'd hope he is going to hit some. I just have an issue of why a guy who was on first almost every time he shot can't get double digit attempts.

    Melo was playing some good defense during the run though. And hit a big 3.

    He missed an easy jumper, took a horrible three, fouled before the ball was inbounded. That was a brutal finish for him.

    Good news. We're still 8th in the West. Bad news. We needed that win if we want to move up the standings.
