    Holy shit.

    Haven't seen this many shots blocked in a quarter since the Theo Ratliff days.

    Is this the same crew we had in Utah for pre season?

    He may be missing shots but it's nice to see Batum playing pissed off.

    Well, that second quarter was a bummer.

    Did Nate forget he could call plays for Aldridge?

    Did the team forget he is our best player?

    Batum with 4 block shots but his awful shooting has more than canceled that out.

    Portland should be ashamed of themselves

    Felton's decision making has me worried. I haven't seen a Blazer PG make as fundamental mistakes as he has since Telfair. Holy hell, that was a bad half.

    Might as well sit Aldridge and rest him if they aren't going to use him in the offense.

    That quarter was just hard to watch. Turned the ball over a ton missed a lot of shots and the refs seemed to just ignore us near the rim.

    Absolutely. I have no problem with him taking the shots he is shooting. He can make those.

    Leading the team in blocks and rebounds. He's giving max effort even when the shot isn't falling.

    I like Felton ok, but he is not our answer at PG long term. I really hope they don't extend him. Maybe it's Smith, maybe another youngish PG in the league.....It's not Felton

    LMA needs to get down on the post and do some work. He's not getting the ball because he's not demanding it.

    That is absolutely part of it, but not all of it, IMO

    If they wanna call everything inside a foul, that's fine - but at both ends please! Can't believe they got away with kicking Nic's leg out from under him on that dunk.

    Why we looked bad:

    Crawford: 10 shots
    Felton: 9 shots
    Matthews: 7 shots

    Aldridge: 6 shots
    Wallace: 3 shots

    Get it together, guys.

    I would like just one game where everyone is playing decent. Why does it seem when one player gets back then others fail. Ugh
