    Stale start, and poor shooting. Dame as off as I've seen him all year on his shot, but he's, well, DAME! It's not the Wolve's defense, it's just brick shooting. Need bench to give some good minutes tonight. Sometimes you need the bench to pick up the starters. Go Blazers!!

    Teams with fast athletics bigs just destroy us. They can shadow both our guards and use their wingspan to block them out. I don't know why the Dame/CJ partnership is so important to Olshey. With a tall defensive wirey shooter we might have a different look. But you hear them mention breaking up the duo and Olshey has a fit.

    remember when Damian and CJ both scored 50 points in under 30 minutes?

    I'n not even sure they'll combine for 50 points tonight.

    Just no ball movement. Everything is 1-on-1 and when you're not shooting well, that is a recipe for disaster.
