    Gulp. We can only hope CJ/Blake/Kaman don't screw things up when they come in.

    I actually wouldn't be surprised if teams with a lot of stars or slippery players did practice "selling contact" doesn't make it right though.

    The NBA needs to be heavier and a lot more consistent on flops.

    That unnecessary double team from Lillard is exactly what's going to cost us this game. Same exact situation when were down in Phoenix last month ... sent the double for no reason and Dragic hit a three to cut our lead from five to two. The ONLY player Portland should look to trap or double is Harden, not Josh fucking Smith.

    Yeah, I cringe whenever he lingers back to double team while his man runs cross court for a wide open three. Rarely pays off.

    I hope the All Star break helps him. Maybe in that stretch he will get some great strange and his game will go back to 13/7/5

    the # 1 way to beat the Blazers? Spot them a double digit lead.
