    Dame is otherworldly... dude was cold in the first half, then that 4th quarter. I can't explain it, but like I said earlier - just appreciate what we have in him.

    Suns are a young team who made some mistakes.
    But Portland last year wouldn't have won this game when they cut it to single digits only to give it all back, letting the Suns push back to 15.
    Portland is a better team this year and it's not close.

    He should be in the MVP discussion if only because the roster is so weak. No player in the league is more valuable to his team.

    Good win. Second game of a back to back and we were missing shots we normally hit. Dame would not allow us to lose this one.

    Ps. That no call with 2 or 3 minutes left when CJ got hammered by two defenders was REALLY bad.

    Great win and everything Lillard cool cool

    But

    Where the FUCK was Collins in the second half? That was one of his better halves, especially defensively. What the hell?

    He had a great first half, so he was logically forbidden to play in the second

    Congrats to Shabazz for being the 9th player since 2000 to go 0-10 or more in 20 minutes or less. "Toothache" Anderson did it for us in 17 minutes, so 'Bazz is gonna have to believe harder next time.

    Other names on this illustrious list: Ben Gordon, Jerian Grant, Ancient Kaman, Gordon Giricek, Jiri Welsch, Rodney Hood (this year) and the guy I thought would be on the list more (except he usually played too many minutes), Antoine Walker.

    It wouldn't phase me if you were only around when the team is losing.
    It's when you're only around when the team is losing and use the losing as a way to 'prove your point' on why in your opinion cj & lillard can't work long term.

    Anyone could say the exact opposite during games like Portland had against the Jazz or the Warriors.

    Both of which are illogical and invalid statement that is so bogus.

    15 Free throw attempts by Dame tonight. Did he change his name to James Harden before the game?
