    I would have left RHJ out there for some hard fouls on Jokic.

    Can you imagine where we could be if RHJ had played all of Kanter's minutes today?

    Michael Porter Jr is so bad defensively it’s unbelievable. Dude will score 40 and give up 40

    100% right. Portland’s iso style is so easy to defend - only one defender needs to be engaged.

    Take Nurk out put in Norman and attack Jokic. We need Nurk for later.

    Melo got the memo. Stop fucking going iso but instead wait for catch and shoot opportunities. Not rocket science to play to a player’s strengths.
