    For defense to slow down Johnson though. Allowed us to have him and Aminu available to switch.

    Both teams have really shot well tonight. Portland shooting nearly 70% from 3.

    IF they end the game both perfect, has that ever happened in an NBA game?

    Damian Lillard's 37 points are tied with CJ McCollum (last year) for 2nd-most in a season opener in team history (47-Vandeweghe, 10/27/84).

    That was a fourth quarter that should be how they play the other 3 quarters.

    Damian Lillard is the first NBA player to score 30 points this season. His 24 games of 30+ points last season ranked fifth in the NBA.

    My take-aways:
    Defense still sucks (not surprised).
    Vonleh is our starting PF (somewhat surprised).

    Well I will take that as a season opener. Abysmal 3rd quarter aside I don't think I am going to regret waking up at 4 am local time to catch that athough I'm gonna be a bit zombie-ish when I go to work in 2 hours :D

    The Trail Blazers have now won 16 consecutive home openers, extending their NBA record (14-Boston, 1979-92).
