    Anyone else nervous despite the 16 point lead? It’s the way Utah is scoring that is scaring me and knowing that the Blazers won’t be able to keep this hot shooting going all night. Fingers crossed

    Nards most certainly got him in the jaw. Even showed on replay via Portland's broadcast.

    Yup. Ingles too.

    Makes those pin downs between the two really tough to guard. Moe got to experience that early and often in this one.

    So who's out for Utah? Obviously we can't beat teams at full strength.

    This is what happens when the GM and coach aren't on the same page. Don't draft prospects unless you are committed to proper development. I swear Stotts has just dumped Collins in the woods to be raised by woodchucks! The kid has talent - but what he desperately needs in mentoring!

    Basketball has always been a game of runs and usually more than not when a team explodes to a mega lead, they lose momentum and get a bit sloppy. These days with the 3 a premium, its nothing for a team to get back in a game. I really enjoyed that half of round ball! Rip City

    Someone other than dame and CJ needs to get going otherwise we’re gonna lose this game. What I mean is get others involved.

    Kinda why I liked Ingles and Crowder trying to start shit. Dame gets super focused when people talk. Should set us back on track

    All we gotta do is not lose the 3rd by 17 pts.

    On a serious note we can’t lose this game, wouldn’t be good.

    I don’t believe in jinxes.

    Utah is going to make a run and more than likely close the gap.
    Doesn't mean this is a loss just because Portland doesn't win by 80.

    I would've liked to see Stotts call a timeout sooner in the 2nd quarter when Portland had 3 straight turnovers.

    What's the foul trouble for Nards and Collins?

    Who did not get enough shots in the first half? Curry is about the only one I can think of.
