    That was a great line-up. Shooting from all wings and the length to disrupt the offense.

    I absolutely loved batum on curry. He completely shut curry down!

    Even if Terry doesn't start that unit.....you figure it will still be used a lot. That is exciting.

    The thing that really impresses me is how we are defending and rebounding. I just can't believe it

    Having Mo and Wright coming off the bench is so huge for us.

    Mo alone is better than our whole bench last year.

    Mo can and did score, but the GS guards were having their way with him.

    Mo's stats are kind of mixed tonight. 7 assists but 6 turn overs. Were the TO's the result of not playing together, or stupid passes? Not being able to handle pressure???

    I really don't care that much. I just don't want us to lose any ground when Lillard is on the bench, and we didn't. Dame sat out most of the second quarter and we were just fine.

    He actually doesn't have a bad jumper. I was watching the fan fest replay and it looked really good. I think he must have hit five or six jumpers in that game.

    Yeah he has pretty good form on his outside shot. Which gives me the feeling that one day he will come back from working out all summer and all of a sudden have more range. At some point he needs to be able to hit the 12-15 footer enough to keep the D honest. But right now he doesn't have it.

    I really like the way Robinson is playing. He's playing hard!

    Just go this notification on my phone:

    Did you know the Trail Blazers had 17 straight defensive stops in the third quarter, powering a 22-0 run?

    I'm naturally biased, but I wouldn't read too much into a 90-74 preseason game.

    BTW Mo Speights has been complete dog shit. Unfortunately MJ loves to give his players a lot of freedom on offense. In most cases I'm ok with it but he really needs to tell Mo and Draymond to tone it down on offense.

    I thought Robin Lopez looked very solid last night. Better than Bogut and JO. Freeland and Claver do not look like NBA players at all.
