    Which is strange because they have a head coach who once had the best winning % in the history of the game.

    Looking at the starting lineups; seems as if we should get our asses kicked?

    Blevins "turns his head". Why would he do that when the guy right in front of has the ball? But then, why would he even be in the game?

    Blevins might arguably be the worst player to ever play for the Blazers. And I'm including that bum Kelvin Ransey.

    Elleby has good defensive instincts.

    Blevins may be worse than your average rec league player.

    A couple observations:

    Elleby has great instincts defensively and knows where to be.

    Nurk has awful hands

    Blevins is absolutely awful and has no business sniffing an NBA floor

    The amount of deflections on defense is a plus at least lol

    Not like there's a ton of talent out there besides him, Nurk and Nance.

    why is nurk active for this game, id really like to know reasoning behind that decision

    especially when you know hes dependant on others on offense and theres no quality here besides simons (and he plays like cj) and larry nance jr

    We had 8 turnovers only 3 assist and gave up 12 points in the paint. Who stood out probably Nance early in the game.

    Pretty active on defense and more organized. Seem to be creating pretty good shots, but not making them.

    I'm hoping Nurk only plays the 1st quarter.
