    Do we have the flat 3rd quarter? Stotts is our coach, so it's always possible.

    I can understand people not loving her voice. Here inflections and excitement over plays can be cringe at times, but she knows the game and does her research.

    She's also great and giving little insights on the game that you wouldn't get if you're not in the arena. Missing that with commentators doing most games remotely or from high in the stands instead of courtside.

    Saw it a little bit late in the 2nd, but looks like terry is trying Cov on Ingles and showing Nurk higher, then late switching.

    Tough action on the first play to guard it that way. CJ late with help at the nail after Cov got caught top side.

    This is okay defense. They need to be a lot better if they want to make any noise in the playoffs.

    Is it me or is CJ bringing the ball up more tonite? No trapping of Dame if he ain't got the ball.

    Seem to be in control, but need to take advantage of the chances to pull away.

    Don't look now, but Blazers are playing defense.

    Actually so are Jazz but Blazers playing a bit more offense.

    Dame loves that lefty drive in semi transition from the right side of the floor if the big is still above the foul line...

    Always his first read

    We are making tougher on them by closing down drives this quarter.
