    What a strange game thread. People bitching and moaning and the team actually played well if you look at the stats. I don’t get it.

    Good to get the first home game off the road...these are trap games no matter who you play...spreading the minutes out is paying off..the bench is bringin' it

    Its a league wide epidemic I understand that but the one thing my brain goes back to over and over is how bad our defense looks. Every time I hear oh the Blazers drtg is top 10 it just proves how crappy defense is and how much the NBA is actively discouraging defense, because the Blazers being are not playing good defense...

    Pace is up a lot and the offense is getting more fouls calls... I don't think it's a product of worse defense...

    Don’t get me wrong, I love the new bench... way more firepower... I just want to see them beat a couple good teams at full health before getting excited... but no matter how much Blazers have improved, still need a Jimmy Butler type player to become a legit title contender
