    I missed it, what happened to Watford's hip and how long he is out?

    Hip flexor. Sat out a couple preseason games, then re-aggravated it against the Warriors. He's day-to-day (but then again, aren't we all?)

    Not that I think it's something to panic about but we can't have anyone taking 22 shots and only coming up with 22 points. I know it's easy math but that's just one point per shot when the league average was over 1.25 points per shot last season. That's not a few shots with the clock winding down or too many shots early in the game... it's just really really inefficient. Dame wasn't much better. This isn't me saying the sky is falling or even that we should bring Ant off of the bench. It was a bad shooting game from both guys, it was the first game of the season and I don't expect either of them to be nearly that bad on the vast majority of nights.

    You arent wrong about the efficiency standards, but they will dust they will dust the rust. As the team continues to grow and know each other, those two will find easier shots.
    Sky is not only not falling, its not even gray yet.

    ohh…*looks out the window*… hmmmm….

    I'm fine with an inefficient offense (for now), so long as our defense continues to be better than anything we saw under Stotts.

    Super excited about the game tonight. I really want to see Shae with a ton of minutes (probably from Little unless he's on fire). I want to see plenty of Winslow and Hart. I'm hopeful that Simons and Lillard find their shot (seems likely) and hope Grant continues his quiet excellence. I'd love to see Nurk man up after that embarrassing last game.

    Does anyone know if/when we will have Sarr available is he hurt, G-League what's the scoop? I'm lazy and someone can get a free like by answering.

    Trae young is 5-18 through 3 quarters today. Looks like he lost his burst

    Alright so I'm out of the loop. There's a Kraken game on Root right now. Will it switch to the Blazer game at 7 for the Portland market, or are we screwed?

    If you have Comcast/Xfinity, turn to channel 1253… not sure about other providers.
