    That's Meyers Leonard plus. I think you know Whiteside's stat line shooting wise. Meyers Leonard could have played defense like that.

    edit: Whiteside was 13 of 14 for 30 points. Where do you see the Davis effect there?

    Starting to think that also. And you know what? I'm good with that. People keep quoting what he wants and what he will take. But honestly i see him enjoying the game again. I also have never heard from him that he can't play along side Nurk? I've never heard from him how much money he wants to play next year? Nurk has never said he won't play along side Whiteside either as i recall?

    OK. When people miss obvious jokes and stuff, I think that's my cue to say good night.

    Enjoy the win, fellas. This team might give us some good stuff to discuss the rest of the year yet.

    Yeah i was scratching my head at these comments also. When i watched the game without reading the game thread. Just what i watched. I thought Davis was having a monster game and the only way the Blazers even stay in it is to have Lillard take over. Lucky for the Blazers Lillard did take over. Because they would not have been in the game without it. They didn't get much from CJ. Melo was not playing and thankfully Whiteside got 30 points.
    GT jr and Little did pitch in 18 but you got 0 points and 6 fouls from Gabriel, 4 from 1M, 5 from Biggie and 1 from Mario.

    Stotts in his post game pc singled out Dame, obviously, and.....Gabriel. Said he was happy for his first start and said he gave them good minutes.

    Look at those dates. Wow. Nobody’s strung this many good games together since 1967. I’m not really good at math, but that’s a long time.
    (Just so you don’t have to grab a calculator like I did, that’s 53 years.)

    Ariza has been great and I love having him on our team, but I think Trent has been just as pivotal in our improvement. Little’s been good too and now Gabriel looks ready to contribute. I’m stoked that our defense actually looks pretty good all of a sudden. We never thought we’d see that this year.

    We know what that means. Gabriel will be glued to the bench next game.

    To be fair, Melo will take most of those minutes.
