    PR is going to issue a statement about the woman stretchered off after Coach Stotts' press conference.

    This was a Spurs like performance. Shooting 51% with lockdown defense. We're growing up

    It's going to come down to guys like CJ McCollum and Meyers Leonard"- Chuck

    Bullshit. Is it down to Matt Bonner and Jeff Ayers for the Spurs? Is it down to Festus Ezeli for the W's? JJ Barea and Al-Farouq Aminu?

    C'mon, Man.

    Why the hell do they think Dallas has a good bench? They're fucking horrible. HORRIBLE.

    Barea? Yuck.

    Richard Jefferson? lol

    Devin Harris? He has been cast off by three teams in the last three or four years.

    I don't get the love. I have never been impressed by Chandler Parsons, and I think guys like Tyson Chandler, Jameer Nelson, and Jefferson are washed up.

    No. According to ESPN it's entirely because Dallas' rotation on defense was bad.

    I'm totally fine with them sleeping on us again.

    Well I guess the silver lining with the lack of love is that we will have another year of flying under the radar

    Defense and the bench. Portland held Cleveland to 36.5% shooting. Held Dallas to 36.7%.

    I prefer it that way too. But it's sure annoying.

    Yup. Once Raymond Felton comes back, things will turn around for the Mavs. Actually, they better turn around twice.

    Just keep winning and these clowns will jump on board the bandwagon soon enough.

    I was hoping we'd learn something from that ass-kicking the Spurs gave us. I know it's very early, but I like what I see defensively. Way different intensity level from last year, and just knowing where to be. Fingers crossed

    The Trail Blazers bench finished 16-for-28 from the field and 7-for-12 from 3-point range, totaling 42 points and 10 assists.
