    I just don't understand how a professional team allows so much back cut passes for easy Layups or dunks

    Why we don't hire a defensive specialist coach is beyond me

    Hendo and Davis are the only guys who showed up on the bench.

    For the most part I can agree with that. We've had stretches where there are glimpses, and hopefully we can build off that.

    You aren't in white Lillard that's why you didn't get the call.

    Snort. I'll remember that when Hack-a-Whoever is his only strategy, and he plays a 6-3 SG on a 7' future HOF PF.

    Not to mention that he has ZERO Defense philosophy.

    The best news of the night is that the Grizzles lost their easiest remaining game. They have to play these here Warriors twice. Still a half game back.

    CJ wants to redeem himself.

    I think it's clear the 5th seed will be up for grabs. The Blazers control their destiny if they want it, but with Utah's relatively easy schedule it's going to be difficult.

    You were just complaining about CJ lost the game because Dame got taken out. You even brought up their respective plus-minuses

    Wow. You've lost your mind. He adjusted Aminu on to Dirk and we won. We don't Hack a whoever every game. And he has great defensive philosophy. Our defense was great last two years and we've improved throughout the season this year. Your thinking is too simplistic.

    That was CJ's fault.

    Man.... could you imagine if we would have traded LA for Draymond/Klay before those two guys broke out? They were supposedly offering up Lee/Klay or Lee/Harrison.

    Dame is sacrificing his body, taking hard hits going to the rim, but drawing FTs.

    Utah has the Spurs, Mavs, and Clippers left. That's not easy

    That should do it. Ugh.

    The Kings are going to be tough Tuesday with everyone playing most likely. Boogie will be well rested as well.
