    Nic isn't hesitating on his shots. Nice to see some aggressiveness from him

    Great night so far. Memphis and Houston losing to inferior teams. Hopefully we don't do the same.

    You gotta love it. Can't take it for granted. I've seen teams choke it away before. I remember when the Ray Allen Bucks led their division in March and choked their way to the lotto in like 5 weeks. Also, I remember when New York led Boston for the division by 5 games with 5 games to play and they blew it. Colossal choke job. It happens. Celebrate dude. We're in!

    Thanks DWebbs!

    We should be down 20 with the way we're playing.

    LMA clutch bucket to end the 1st half. Tie game at 47 a piece. We gotta play harder on the defensive boards and stop being so careless with the ball.

    Brandon is the steadying factor that we desperately lack this game. Wonder why Nate gave him the quick hook. I actually thought he was playing well tonight.

    Anybody else get sick of watching GS guards just abuse PDX guards or wing players? Matthews, Rudy, Miller, Roy, Blake, Batum, Outlaw, Wallace, it just doesn't matter, but Ellis and Curry take it to the Blazer guards and wings the past few years.

    I think Houston and Memphis losing might have something to do with it. Get rest for Roy tonight, and have him as healthy as possible for the game against Memphis next week.

    I only caught the second half but we need to fight over picks and play Ellis a little closer then we are. Good news is were tired and played some iffy basketball, if we can straighten things up we should be able to put the hammer down on this game by the end of the 3rd.

    Wesley had no one within 15 feet of him and he absolutely bricks a three. Come on.

    Blazers better hang close and not let the Warriors jump out to a big lead going into the fourth.
