    We’re one of the bottom 5 teams defensively that’s why

    Bulls are a long and physical defense. Total nightmare for this Blazers team for years now.

    We just look horrible. I get the impression that we only have a chance of success if Dame shoots a lot. It feels like he's deferring too much (maybe by design). There's just no firepower anywhere else.

    Edit: I don't like CJ's game. Even when he's scoring a lot, it's just not entertaining basketball for me personally.

    The “Next Game” graphics on the court during free throws is actually kind of cool.
    At least they aren’t covering up the score block anymore.

    This is about as bad as it gets. We have to have our A-game against a team like this. We come out with way too many turnovers, look like we haven't played together before, take a few bad shots, get discouraged and stop competing for a couple of possessions and all of a sudden it's an insurmountable deficit.

    If Lillard gets double teamed or triple teamed near the hoop shouldn't that turn into an easy two points for somebody else?
