    Dame does look pretty sluggish out there. Holiday is killing him.

    Except he's just blowing by Dame on 1v1 situations and back cutting off Dame when he's off ball. Dame is completely unengaged on both ends.

    Stotts is fucking panicking because the "make more shots" strategy wasn't working until Davis and Rondo went out and Dame and CJ stayed in.

    All guards tend to play like this against us.

    Dame has been directly responsible for losing like 12 points.

    It's gotta be the new kid for Dame. I was worried about that. I have kids. Baby's are physically draining, no sleep. I'm sure Dame is an involved father.

    Put Harkless on Holiday and Aminu on Davis and Use the man guarding Rondo to double those two.

    Dame and CJ played the whole quarter and Blazers still down, while Anthony Davis only played 8 minutes
