    I'm fine with Jokic scoring. Don't let him shoot the three, but let him do whatever else he wants. The guy gets super tired and then he's pretty much worthless. He almost makes stupid decisions when he's tired. Just keep Murray and Millsap from scoring.

    The key to game 7 is Terry Stotts. He's discovered the answers to an open-book test. There's not much to think about for most people, about who to start with from the get-go for a victory in game 7. The guys who won game 6.
    Stotts still started the 3rd quarter of game 6 with Harkless and Aminu and I believe will play with fire and start them in game 7. It would be a real shame if the Blazers lost because of the coach. There will be no "at least they gave it their all" feeling for me.

    That might be the ticket to the WCF's right there.

    This is the type of insight you'd receive if you watch the Blazers Outsiders Pregame show.

    I'm serious! I've watched the pregame show twice and both times that was Shain's key to the game was to score more points. I know he's a "comedian" but that is not funny at all, it is actually quite cringeworthy.

    Early in Game 7, we want Meyers on Jokic and Zach on Millsap, and the see scoring, screens, rebounds, and hustle defense by the twin towers. Let's see distributed season high swish3 scoring with Dame, CJ, Meyers, Seth, Rodney, and Zach keeping the nets swishing, along with a lot of scoring in the paint, passing symphonies, consistent team chatter, boxing out to win rebounds, and avoid turnovers! We have what it takes from the games won to win Game 7!

    Stotts just needs to grow a spine and make bold decisions. I'll leave it at that.
