    Plumlee has had a good postseason because of more minutes with Leonard out.

    Rebound, make the open shots we're getting, and hope they don't make ridiculous shots when we do play defense?

    I'm posting so I don't have to look at the game. Unfortunately, I can still hear it.

    I'm thinking we're not going to win the game.

    Our guards were both dwarfed by the Warriors', and torched by them.

    Plumlee just can't score with his back to the basket.

    You realize that he can still score 20 off the bench right? And still play with Dame throughout the game....

    Indeed. CJ has shown he's more than capable all year long. This is just much needed playoff experience under his belt in this expanded role and I'm confident he'll continue to improve. Not discouraged by Dame or CJ one bit, they'll get theirs in due time.

    When we miss a shot, they have 4 guys around the ball to our 1. Something we should look to do next game.

    Not worried. Still 6 games to go, potentially. :)

    Wait, when Dame hits a three they hardly notice but Klay hits a three and Tirico screams with delight!

    We can absolutely beat the Warriors, I truly still believe that. There is good to come from this game. GS came out hot at home on some good rest, they took a commanding league and the Blazers chipped away at it. Ever since the hot start Portland has pretty much hung with them. Take a way that first quarter and Portland is right there with GS.

    This series is far from over. Belive that.

    If we can get them overconfident, we might sneak up and steal the next game.

    Gotta get more from CJ, and rebound better.

    At least it was almost respectable, unlike that clusterfuck that Zombie Sonics had.

    How is having him come off the bench breaking up our back court?
