    He’s looked good to me. Consistently putting some points on the board, making plays, rebounding, and defending. What player are you watching?

    You do realize they said we didn't beat good teams on this road trip. That's legit how this started. We didn't beat good teams this road trip.

    Surprised I had to say this lol

    Depends on def of “good.” Toronto was healthy and had been playing well coming into our game. Washington and Boston have high level talent and are playoff contenders.

    Toronto had lost 4 of 6 coming into the gave versus Portland....not exactly playing well. Boston is #8 and the Wiz #1 in the East. Yes, that is a contender for a Playoff spot, but so are we.....that isn't saying much.

    in that case he wouldnt play at all (although, id argue anyone but dame is on the trade block)

    was cj mccollum on minutes restriction when he came back (he was)

    this probably means powell will be a bench player from now on

    Powell is most likely to be traded (from my understanding). Cjs played 28, 32, 36, 37.

    No fucking chance Stotts would’ve had Powell coming off the bench tonight. I didn’t even think it was a question he would be starting. I still got that terry stench.

    Why is Norm on a minutes restriction coming off "personal reasons"?

    Toront0 was 6-4 in their last 10. Also- harder to make playoffs in East

    Terrible start you got to be able rebound on the defense boards. You can't rely on the 3 so much especially if hitting them.
