    This reminds me too much of the Bucks game, so I'm tempering my enthusiasm. Unfortunately, I almost expect us to be down 15 3 minutes into the third quarter.

    That comeback was very entertaining. I would like to see adjustments made coming into the second half to get Dame more touches or keep really make the Clippers continue to pay for selling out to take him out of the game.

    I think if they can incorporate Norman into the offense more, using Damian as a decoy more, it would make it harder for teams to double and trap Damian.

    It shouldn't have taken 9 years of having Damian on the team to figure out how to adjust to that.

    A two man game of Dame and CJ needs to become a three man game including Powell, otherwise they shouldn't all be on the court at the same time.

    That is the kind of ballmovement we need. If there was more of that, the Blazers offense would open up. Opponent defenses can't cover that many shooters. Too much Iso ball. Blazers are two predictable when there is no movement

    I'm PRO using Powell on offense, but even if he is just standing in the corner (which hasn't been the case), the spacing he provides is so much better than DJJ.

    Stotts made good adjustments in the second quarter to turn things around. He’s such an underrated coach.
