    They weren’t. But Aminu and Hark combined for about 35% as Blazers. Nurk shouldn’t ever shoot a 3 IMO.

    I love how Neil didn’t even bother with his two way spots. Even the guy he signed doesn’t belong anywhere near the nba. That level of arrogance is actually impressive and funny.

    This!
    I caught that also. Lillard usually plays all the first quarter. Not this game.

    Nice balanced efficient game for Dame. If Nurk gets it going again and we continue to gel we are gonna be a second tier team.

    @THE HCP Are you guys involved in how replays are strung together? I notice sometimes you guys string together two or three replays that end up cutting into live action. Or playing replays when live action is happening. I know not all of these stuff is avoidable, but is it possible to cut down on the number of times a game this happens? There’s at least 2-3 plays missed per game because of this.

    Good win but we're lucky Golden State wasn't making wide open threes.

    Pretty sure that’s entirely HCPs wheelhouse.

    Not bad for a guy we signed for the min.

    upload_2021-1-1_22-24-34.png

    At his current pace of 11.7 ppg:
    - He'll be passing Dominique Wilkins in 15 games.
    - He'll be passing Oscar Robertson in 18 games.

    If Dame wasn't his homie he wouldn't be in the NBA.

    It's been like this for over 10 years. I wish we had less replays too.

    This happens in NFL and NHL also. Sometimes even in MLB.

    I know it happens. I’m just asking for it to happen less. National TV broadcasts have less missed plays than local ones.

    It is a huge factor for sure, but I would think that some players might be a little more comfortable shooting in the arena they are used to. And not traveling should help a little except when they play back to back in the same arena.
