    Looks as if Harkless is coming around. This could have been a pretty decent team if they had kept Connaughton, Davis and Vonleh.

    They took a block away from him, because he was on 4 blocks (according to the NBA app), then when they showed his stat line on the broadcast he was on 3 blocks (and the NBA app had changed).

    A Bill Walton(during the Championship) esqe dominant game. Dude gets better and better. Gutty win with Dame sick, and a cold shooting qtr. They didn't give up. Cauley-Stein is no stiff either, but Nurk showed what he's capable of.

    To often every bench player has a negative +/-. I realize that stat isn't great and has flaws. Stotts has really gotta stop playing the entire bench together for long stretches it DOESN'T work.
    Anyways crazy game, Dame played so well at to end that game. The defense to end the 4th and in OT was about as good as those guys have ever played defense as a group. Nice to start the new year with a win.

    Nurk's defense is amazing. He has great anticipation on the defensive end. He's young too (that's for all the meatheads who keep wanting to trade him and Dame away).

    Good win. I just wish Nurk played like this more often.

    Y'all can thank me. I missed most of the first 3 quarters. When I started watching, Blazers were up 8. They quickly lost the lead and got down by 7. I said to myself, "time to stop watching, remove the damn jinx, they will come back." And they did!! I watched OT through. Couldn't resist that.
