    I agree! Funny to say "Total Team Effort!" in a game where CJ scores 30 and Dame scores 28.

    Whether people want to believe it or not, we have solid SFs. They just aren't consistent enough yet and we may not be able to wait.

    You shouldn't question anyone else's math skills when making comments like this.

    @KingSpeed is probably wondering why Portland isn't one of the choices in the poll.

    Blazers were absolutely on fire in the 4th; they made 8 out of 12 from downtown! Just incredible!

    Sign of good leadership: when a player does a swag move, Dame will do their swag move back at them (see Ed Davis's flex chest bump with Dame)

    Forgot to mention how impressed I was with our defense. Man on man, weak side help, low post, open court, didn’t matter. ya KD got his, but overall, I think the guys did a great job on that end of the court.

    Even though KD got his, Turner played some really good D on him. CJ did a fine job on Klay as well.

    I only saw a couple of times where CJ made a mistake on Klay (when he was the primary defender... I know hark and turner got time on him too), which is a huge plus.

    I think Steph playing helps the blazers, when Steph guards Dame he goes off, Klay tends to handle Dame a little better.

    Ok maybe not helps:)

    I don’t have any proof but from watching the all-star game and the game tonight it appears to me that Dray and Dame might have hit it off during all-star weekend. I hate that if it’s true but it would make sense, they were chatting it up during the all-star game and I saw Dray helping Dame up off the floor tonight and thought it was a little outta character, these comments are very out of character too so maybe he’s a Dame fan? I hate Dray but if he played in pdx I bet he’d be a fan favorite.

    This is basically 100% shit I’m assuming in my head but when does Dray ever help opponents up or hype them after a loss?
