    Yup.

    The trapping and switching has led to some cross matches that we've done a poor job communicating on.

    They're so aggressive too. Multiple guys that can lead the break also helps.

    im fine with teh Green show, if it keeps it away from steph n klay

    meyers has been great, i know he watches a lot of film and with his focus now seemingly more on high energy, activity n speed - not spotting up on the perimeter as a 7 foot SG, he's pretty much everywhere and its great. he is super athletic and its nice to see him finally using his actual strengths to his advantage. took about 4yrs too long, but hey.

    we need a solid 3rd Q here, we've fallen apart in the 3rd recently, it used to be our period where dame often went ham and we'd push out, but hasnt been the case for a while.

    let's gone blazers!@

    Am I really watching Meyers Leonard dominate a WCF game?

    I saw Layman massaging his knee with something on the bench.

    I mean, really? You getting a cramp from the bench or something?

    I think we should keep Meyers for next season, don’t trade him. We need all the big man depth we can get.

    Run them out of the building in the third so there is no hope of them beating you in the 4th.

    Nards is going to have to be far more smart in the second half. Draymond is going to try and force you to make mistakes

    Well without Nurk, of course. And Kanter isn't a certainty either.

    I forgot who said it, but it was something along the lines of “this kind of thing doesn’t happen in Portland, home teams find a way to close tight games out.”

    Meyers has been setting some great screens. The guards are getting free and finding the right guys.
