    Russ talks shit and then bricks a free-throw. Classic.

    Worried about them getting to the line in the 4th.

    Dame is definitely in Westbrook's head

    Dammit. Dame's long shots are killing our momentum. He has to make those or not take them.

    Good, man. I've been so depressed for this season, I've only been lurking. Haven't felt like contributing. How was your surgery?

    Now the Blazers get tired, go cold on offense and defense isn't much defense. Watching someone shoot a 3-pointer.

    There right back not moving the ball and taking long 3 is not going to get the job done.

    You may be right. We're a good team. We'll come back with a run here.

    I was just thinking a minute ago: "you're up 12 points against a good team at their place with 7 minutes left; now you gotta step on the gas. Show some intensity." didn't happen....

    Dame tried. Up 17, he took a long three but it didn't go in.

    That's how you answer - Dame, CJ, Melo all hit shots one after the other.

    Houston was stupid to give up on Melo. It's hilarious.
