    Sly look at this shit. Denver is completely short handed and we’re completely healthy. We can’t take advantage when our bench is killing like this?

    We look like the Blazers who were gonna miss the playoffs, not the ones with the streak.

    No involving Nurkic on offense and defense looks like trash.

    He always had trouble running the offense since he got back from his injuries.

    Blazers defense: Switch or drop the big, fail to box out, be completely out of position off the ball, and Kanter 1v1 against Jokic :)

    We saw the whole season who this Blazers Team is, so you shouldn’t be surprised

    Murk must stay out of foul trouble. Kanter on jokic will be embarrassing

    If you got to him sooner, Nurk, that wouldn't happen. Pay attention.

    Giving them several chances with our lazy defensive rebounding.

    offensive boards is the reason we are losing. if nurk, kanter and crew can actually rebound we should be fine.

    The defensive intensity is just not there. This team doesn’t play defense. No communication.
