    Not really. We waste 15 seconds dribbling the hell out of the ball before doing anything. This is on CJ running zero offense.

    We are seeing what having a guard or wing on the floor that can be ignored allows you to do defensively.

    Think Trent Forrest has chance to make it in the NBA, but he's a liability out there right now.

    Blazers are doing a fairly good job of closing out on Utah shooters....by my gawd the Jazz have tossed up a pallet of bricks tonight. And the more open they are the worse they miss

    Nurk is a menace defensively.
