    I blame Big Shot Blevins and Justise The LeBron Stopper Winslow for this win.

    Upcoming headlines.

    After jettisoning most their known talent, the resurgent Blazers make the play-in.

    Shocking the NBA, the Blazers going to the Finals.

    Who are these guys and can they repeat next year. Blazers win Championship!

    Can’t believe Brown and Watford together on the same floor with DSJ late signing

    Every player who suited up contributed in so many different, positive ways. This win was good for the fan base soul tonight… and the defacto team. Love it!

    Halfway through the first quarter I thought THE CJ was going to get a triple double.

    That lineup beat LA, but didn't go undefeated in summer league. Crazy.

    DSJ with 11 assists and 6 steals. Sheesh.

    Imagine a defensive lineup of DSJ, Winslow, Little and Hart.

    DSJ and Simons together, made it hard to key on Simons on defense, because DSJ was looking for other players as well as Simons. And DSJ could be tenacious on their PG.
    * Simons is better as a scoring guard than a play-making guard. His floor game is quite a bit better when he's searching for his own offense than when he's running the team. I still question how Dame & Ant will sync, but there's a chance it will be better than Dame/CJ. Hart may be a good 3rd guard in that rotation

    They can’t even blame this one on Westbrook. Perhaps he isn’t the only problem in Laker-land.

    I love watching the young guys. Young players don't coast, and they soak up good coaching like a sponge.
