    Nas is approaching Ed Davis status for me as a fan...he's a game changer

    We got a rotation player with Nas earlier than we expected.

    I just don't like that it only looks like he's playing one end right now.
    This isn't football.

    CJ and Nas have been solid.

    Think CJ would be looked at as average, maybe even better, if he guarded PG's full-time.

    We need Hood to start making shots if we're gonna win this game. Like he did as I was typing this.

    goodjob whiteside.
    Guards do need to do a better job of staying connected to their man.
    Their young Center is too bouncey to make Whiteside play both.

    Come on! the best assist so far was the pass from Simons to Little for 3. That should be the McAssist or whatever it's called.

    Next step for Ingram's game. Grow a beard so the officials buy his flops.

    The Blazers could use two Nassir Littles. One would replace Whiteside.

    Melo 7 and 3 in 12 minutes...not bad for a guy who hasn't played in over a year

    Ant seems to rely on his floater way too much. With his athleticism, he should be looking for contact. Hopefully Dame can teach him some things.

    the MVP of the first half for Blazers was Whiteside and the job he's doing in rim protection

    Stotts fans are insane if they think the team should be even in performance with the lowly Pelicans with all their injuries. I know it's a back to back but the disparity in talent is significant.

    Melo looks good.

    I LOVE Nassir Little.

    Overall not bad 1st half 12assist that half. 60 percent from the 3. Anthony look good in his opener and when Little get more experience he going be a double double player. He already 9/7 this half.

    Melo is just the player to motivate Nassir....without having to lift a finger.

    I was hopeful before the season but right now, the only thing good about Bazemore is that he's not Turner.
