    This may be one of the best three game stretches any player has ever had.

    Yup.

    Very similar to Austin Rivers, in that regard.

    Houston played in Minnesota two days ago, didn't play yesterday, isn't playing today, and plays in Utah tomorrow night. He could have easily made it.

    We keep thinking Dame has reached his ceiling every year. Yet, he keeps raising it with each season.

    This is ridiculous

    Stotts either having a lot of confidence in Trent or there showing him for maybe a future trade. I hope is the confidence part because he out playing Simons nightly.

    What happens more often? Nurk getting hit in the nose or Dame kicked in the giblets?

    Is anyone else furious about this precipitous dropoff in Damian Lillard's game? Two games ago, he scored 61. The next he scores 47. Now, he only has 39 with half of the 4th quarter left! What will happen next game? He may not even break 40. Unacceptable!

    It's cool that he's the first blazer to score 40 in 3 straight games.

    That reminds me of back when Kobe had like what, 7 straight games above 50 or something insane?

    Giblets? That wasn't his liver, or my idea of male anatomy is way off.

    Love the MVP chants, Dame doesn’t get them as much as he should.

    Why was that a foul? The guy that hit Lillard got all balls.
