    1-5 start, not counting the heaves and non-call. Happens all the time to all levels of players.

    Vonleh's perimeter defense is good stuff.

    Layman has athleticism. That's something you can't teach. You know "sneaky" athleticism. "Gym rat" athleticism. "Last one to leave" athleticism. "Enter your backhanded complement/stereotype" athleticism.

    Did we just sit our leading scorer for the entire 2nd quarter and still increase the lead? Now we finish them with another quarter of the Legend.

    Layman either needs to smoke way more pot or way less pot.

    Spurs don't look very interested tonight in anything.

    Pop is going to take the switch to his boys at halftime.

    Blazers best defenders:
    #1 Nurkic
    #2 Vonleh
    #3 Turner
    #4a/b Aminu/Harkless

    1 and 2 are very close, and 3, 4a, and 4b are all close, but 2 and 3 aren't very close.

    Soccer managers always encourage their players to lay off the drugs and drink but increase the promiscuous sex. So that's always an option.

    Wow stat wise we holding spurs to 40 percent shooting and 20 percent from the 3. We got 12 assist that half that pretty good for these young guys. If we didn't shoot so poorly by some players we could blowing the spurs off the court.

    Pop must be missed that he's losing to our 2nd and 3rd stringers. But man...what is the deal with Jake Layman? I thought he had a lot of potential, but after his great first game, he's been garbage. 1-11...his shot looks gimpy. On the season, he's only shooting 26% from 3, which is abysmal for a spot up shooter. Small sample size granted, but he made 6 of his 11 3 pointers on the season in his first 8 minute stretch.

    I have to believe Scrappy McScrapperson is a better shooter than he's shown. At least I hope so.
