    Damian Lillard's 49 points are the most by any NBA player on 21 field goal attempts or fewer since Amar'e Stoudemire (11/5/08).

    whiteside didn't wanna bang with Nurkic, you could tell watching those two off the ball. Most his early points came on jumpers anyway. Fuck him.

    fair enough, Sly, but a few more passes when he was mugged inside, and we have a far easier win

    ...right, Whiteside seems more similar to LMA than he does a true big man center!

    The 3 point defense was good they shot only 29 percent so that been Achilles heel all season. Some great stat lines for some of these players Dame Nurk Vonleh CJ made some good assist at end Harkless playing great D. But overall it was team win. The bench did there job. This is playoff basketball for this team and I am enjoy it very much. 4-1 on this road trip that great too.

    It is nuts how you don't know if Dame has 45 points on torrid shooting, or 8 pts on 3-19 shooting. He looks exactly the same.

    No.

    We used to wake up drunk as fuck and go on runs. Or not go to sleep at all, and take some shots before we headed out.

    Now they give random breathalyzer tests to units before morning PT :cheers:

    Seriously, running is way easier when you're drunk. And you can get your puke out of the way faster.

    Noticed the last few games that Dame and CJ were tryingvto stay in front of their men on defense.

    When is the last time a Blazer big played the quality of Howard/Whiteside on b2b nights as well as Bear Nurkic did?

    Yes I agree, Lillard should only shoot when he knows he's going to make it.

    And what would be ever better is if he would pass when he knows he's not going to make it.

    What a game from the Blazers. Amazing performance by Dame and the Nurk. It really feels good to have an inside scorer. I think we can get that #8 seed from Denver.
