    lol are you really comparing us missing nurk and fringe bench players to them missing curry/wiggins? and you are the one who is incredulous at this notion? 'sometimes this place '... is absolutely right

    Walker is amazing. I love his effort.

    Absolutely staggering too only be down four at half time! Given the number of players out, our poor defence, and our iso heavy offence, it’s absolutely staggering!

    GREAT FIGHT TRAIL BLAZERS!!!

    or box out.

    or close out.

    or play solid defense instead of jumping at every pump fake.

    good lord, we need another viable big. playing drew 30 mins a night with nurk out is a chore.

    Dame needs to stop complaining to the refs and focus on the game in the second half.

    NOTHING fills the shoes of Curry. Portland is missing role players. Come on now. The ~greatest shooter of all time is on the bench.

    Come on, you are better than that. The Warriors CONSTANTLY play small, so not having size isn't nearly as much of an issue. They only have 1 player out there taller than 6'8"....Looney.

    After that horrible first I think only being down by 4 at the half has to make us feel like we should win this game. Just come out and put it on them to start the second half and don’t let up.

    Hey, if we are going to give up 41 in the first, following that up with holding them to 19 in the 2nd is a pretty good way to go.

    i try to catch myself when being too critical of watford given our investment in him and his rise from his two-way status.

    but he has no business being a C for this team. would rather roll Jabari out there and hope his rebounding and defensive instincts overcome any other deficiencies he poses on offense.

    Start Walker in 3rd. We need his rebounding.

    Dame and Drew have 3 fouls a piece. Need to be careful in the second half.
