    This game is over. Lousy Dillon Brooks is nailing threes.

    Memphis does lead the league in points in the paint...
    For all you stat junkies, that should explain this.
    It's what they do.

    Did Stotts trade for Biggie?
    Did Stotts fuck our cap up for years in 2016?

    Doesn't appear as though this team is making the playoffs.

    Memphis has 44 points in the last 9:50. That's the pace of a 52 point quarter.

    You can have more than one problem. This team plays no defense and doesn't compete. Any half-decent coach could get their team to try.

    Have you seen the other guys?! Who the hell is he supposed to play? Swanigan may be the worst defensive big I've ever seen.

    Stotts would rather play Carmelo 40 minutes in a game he's shooting 10% against a very-fast paced team, than play Wenyen.

    Love the Blazers....but damn, Memphis is fun to watch. Ja is so exciting because he is a pass-first PG who can score as opposed to most PG's who are score first PG's who can pass. He keeps everyone involved and everyone is on their toes expecting a pass or playing off a cut/movement. Very entertaining.

    Play Trent over Melo. To me this is the obvious play.

    Stotts could play Swanigan at PG and people would say "Did Stotts trade for Swanigan? Are the injuries Stotts fault?"

    A guy who is more defensive oriented, with more length and much younger legs against a team running at every chance. Now why would Stotts do that? :banghead2:

    Wenyen is a g-league player. I don't care how much some of you want to overhype him like our fanbase does with every young player.
