    Awesome. He went through a period where he missed more free throws than usual and he has, of course, focused on it and fixed it. God, I love Damian so much.

    What a way to start this road trip! I win in Boston would be hyuuuuge tomorrow, but that is tough on a back to back, especially with Boston playing as well as we are. I guess we'll see what we have left in the tank.

    Love to see that. His tweet was in response to the question "Will you ever leave the Blazers?"

    His response "Here to stay." was all that he needed to say.

    Is it too early to start working on the extension to his extension?

    I liked his next one even better (in response to someone saying LA also said he was here to stay):

    I believe Dame when he say shit like that.

    As long as we don't mess it up, I believe he truly will be a Blazer lifer. Could be what ever Blazer fan has been waiting for. The arrival of the greatest...The Blazer Jesus.

    I think the mental aspect might be harder than the physical side. Especially for Dame who has been on for so many games now in a row. But on the other hand last night Harkless only played 13 minutes, Aminu, 21, Vonleh 15, Davis 24, Plums 27, Henderson 23, Crabe 22.....those guys need to bring energy. Even CJ and Dame only played 32, 33....

    I would really like to win this one as the next 5 including Washington will be even harder IMO. The first game back after a long road trip is never easy as teams tend to relax when finally home.

    Thats one of the 'sexy' things about the roster Neil put together. Outside DameCJ everyone has to prove themselves every night. The guys are playing for their first big contract. They play limited minutes each night so they are rested and physically able to give it their all. With Nic/LMA those two were very fatigued at times of an 82 game season but also could take a few games off, they'd still have starting spots, still get big minutes and still get max contracts. These guys we have now play hard because if not they may end up with a DNP or lose millions. These guys have tasted enough success to feel confident and know they belong in this league; but they are really hungry to show more.
