    Otherwise our grip on homecourt advantage in the playoffs is going slip away. Currently the Clippers have just as many wins as us, but 3 more losses. Houston's only a couple games back of us as well. Our only saving grace is that the Spurs have been just as shitty as of late and Ginobili's out for 3 weeks.

    We need to get that swag back. Starts with you Lillard.

    I'm hoping the A* weekend will snap him out of it, but the problems run much deeper than Dame struggling from the field.

    Our defense has been beyond horrible and the whole team is missing open shots.

    Im hoping its just exhaustion. We just did what 8 games in 12 days? Thats a lot. Should have won a few more though actually. Dame and LA should be revitalized after some rest and their all star nods.

    These last three days have been miserable. The Blazers have done nothing to help their record!

    Rooting of the Warriors last night helped. Rooting for Nets tonight.

    Yeah, the high-powered offense did a good job overcoming the defensive deficiencies until this recent funk.
