    Playing hide-and-seek with Stotts, is my guess.

    From 18 to 6.

    At least we still have the lead.

    Ok, that Clip City sign at halftime really cracked me up!

    This team's ability to blow huge leads at home in 5-6 minute spans is mind blowing.

    Damn! That would have been a massive dunk by the Chief to finish the half.

    I don't understand why Memphis often gets away with so many flops. It seems like a lot more than other teams. They jump into people and get away with it too.

    RipCityDSCPL Could be worse, at least it's not Lonzo.

    Why haven't we started a "blow the lead" drinking game yet? Are we not Oregonians?

    This team's ability to play even better over a 5-6 minute span is awesome,

    Okay, I want 5-8 points out of Meyers in the second half. We need everyone to contribute.

    Don't worry. You can be an honorary "mosshead."

    Someone held up a sign behind the halftime guys that had a picture of Meyers with his weird haircut and a goofy expression on his face, then a plus sign, then a picture of a pair of scissors, then an equals sign, then another pic of Meyers with a nice neat really short haircut and a smile. Underneath was a pinwheel without the words "Clip City" in the Rip City font...

    Halftime
    Us - 62
    Them - 56

    Very close game. Players look relaxed, but focused.

    We won both quarters. The first by four, the second by two.

    We have done a very good job at limiting our turnovers (compared to usual).

    Turnovers
    Us - 4
    Them - 4

    Points in the Paint
    Us - 20
    Them - 26

    For them, it's the vets getting it done.
    Gasol - 19 pts @ 50%
    Carter - 11 pts @ 80%
    Z-Bo - 7 pts @ 75%

    We have more of an even spread.
    Dame - 15 pts @ 44.4%
    Crabbe - 14pts @ 62.5%
    Plums - 11pts @ 66.7%
    CJ - 10pts @ 80%

    Although Turner isn't shooting the ball well so far, he is setting up his teammates well.
    Turner - 5 ast, 2 pts @ 25%
    Dame - 4 ast

    Same story for Conley - 6 ast, 4 pts @ 16.7%

    Fouls at the small forward position may become a problem for us as the game goes on.
    Turner - 3 pf
    Crabbe - 3 pf
    Aminu - 2 pf
