    I thought the foul should have been on Clarkson for leaving his feet and jumping into CJ and landing on his shoulder.

    Props to Turner, awful first half but that second half was easily his best as a Blazer.

    Nice 2nd half defense held them to 47 point. 5 players double figure in points. Great win Blazers!!!

    I'm more impressed with the second half D than the win itself. Not bad.

    He had a very good second half, and a great last quarter. His first half was not good.

    Randle had his forearm on CJ's hip as CJ pushed the ball forward to split the trap.
    While I personally think CJ was stupid to do so, Plumlee was wide open... Nor do I think the foul should have been called.
    By the rulebook that's a foul on Randle

    Actually, we had an awful 2nd quarter, but the other 3 were pretty good

    maybe we are talking about a different play; I was talking about when CJ was under their basket and tried to split a double team and they called a foul on Randle even though it looked like he did nothing. I might be on a delay

    Damn. Lakers could really be tough in a couple of years. Fuck 'em for now, but watch out.
