    Would it be disaster to play Kanter / Zach and Aminu with CJ and Dame?

    Aminu has been excellent overall in every playoff series I can remember, especially recently. He’s so underrated.

    Are you worried Blazers can't beat them unless those "stars" sit down?

    Aminu certainly makes a higher percentage in the Playoffs....but given that they are the most wide-open shots in perhaps the history of the NBA (by design) you'd think that percentage should be even higher.

    I never want to see that defense from the Blazers ever again.

    Isnt relevant to the point. Apparently Aminus 43% 3pt shooting lost us the series. Smfh. You moe that's false. 43% is a good percentage regardless. 129 is a great ORtg.

    Teams definitely aren’t “willing to live” with 43% 3 pt shooting, from an elite defender no less. Chief is the man.

    Moe was hurt and out for 2 games and played a total of 53 minutes in two others (but wasnt 100%). He played a quarter of the series.

    Blaming Aminu's shooting (43%) for us losing the series is extremely off-base. Possessions ending in Aminu 3pt attempts were the most efficient possessions on average.
