    I had doubts during the game, the effort was not really there, really happy the Blazers proved me wrong. This is what i expect in the series, we are better than the Nuggets with all their players out, we should beat them, no excuse.

    This is pretty much what my comment meant. Don’t need to play much defense with the talent difference.

    If you allow Nurk to play his game, our victories will be decisive.

    If you stick to guard isos then it will be much closer.

    Need to realize that 1 game does not a series make.

    Don't let up for game 2!

    Campazzo fouls the entire possession and they finally call it, and he’s complaining.
