    Nurk is owning the paint on defense.

    Seeing him make it from that deep is still awe-inspiring.

    I'd actually rather have him take those than 3s at the moment. His 3 ball does not look comfortable at all.

    Every time I see Chandler I see a painting of Persian King Cyrus. That beard is seriously fucking with me.

    I think it's the matchup, Chandler is one of the best low post defenders in the league.

    I think the Blazers are establishing a "play physical, don't worry about fouling" defensive mindset and I love it. Worrying about fouling leads to easier buckets witch gets players going, and let's them be comfortable.
