    Three pointers are such a cop out for good offense. I want to see the stats for three pointers and my theory is the teams who shoot more are not very good. The analytics never said chuck bullshit three pointers up nearly the entire game. We're completely ignoring other opportunities. That's not to say three pointers don't have a role in the game. They do.

    that's true

    I remember my playing days and one thing I remember is that playing fast in transition took a lot of practice and a lot of focus. I don't think Portland works at it much

    I heard a story about one of the guys who played with wilt when he scored 100, and the guy was talking about how he and wilt had this crazy night they combined for 104. This reminds me of that.

    Just substitute CJ for King and it’s 68 points combined for the Blazers’ backcourt.

    I agree with you there. But they are a bit thin. Whiteside was not scoring though he had many chances. Skal could not move without fouling. Hood was out. So now you have Tolliver and a Rookie. I'm actually glad Stotts put the rookie in.
    You got to have options to use them is all i'm saying. 1M gave them some good Minutes but he also didn't shoot well.
