    Sounds like next year, realistically.
    My thoughts, anyway.
    Next year.....This team "pops"..

    Great win!

    If anyone has a petition to ban the troll I’d love to sign. I mostly lurk and they are single handily making the experience terrible.

    Winning in Utah playing with essentially just one guard is amazing. (At this point I view SS as an SF)
    Winslow great all-around game
    Brown with solid minutes, especially on D
    Watford with 14 boards
    Nurk was a warrior. Big minutes. He looked exhausted
    The rookies both struggled but that happens

    Ant again with huge minutes at the end of a tough 7 game stretch and still putting up 45
    Dame better play tomorrow to give him a break.

    He made a lot of things happen.
    One play yelled at Winslow to throw him the ball immediately so he could pass it to Grant near the hoop immediately. Nurk made that happen.

    In Blazer history we'd only won 23 games in Utah ever...tonight was the 24th Blazer win in that place which is pretty incredible seeing as it goes back so many decades...learned that on the radio feed tonight

    Simons mentioned how great a screener Nurk is.
    Important aspect of a big mans game that often goes unnoticed.

    Nurk played pretty well tonight. But, man his lack of ability to move is astounding. He's so slow. He let Vanderbilt shoot lights out from three because he refused to go out and guard him.

    He needs to get in better shape.

    Credit where credit is due, Ant redeemed himself that last defensive stand.

    I haven't yet, but I think I am probably one of only 2 or 3.
    Imagine how pathetic of an existence you have where you're a "fan" of a team, you complain about them online constantly, and you might as well be yelling it in an empty room because nobody listens or responds really.

    You don't have to convince us about SS. We know he will be good, and we know young rookies struggle...which is why we didn't want him to start. He says till needs to get minutes.

    It almost looked like the game plan was to let Vanderbilt shoot 3s. They did not attempt to cover him.

    nurk let him shoot 4 wide open threes, obviously it was the game plan

    if it wasnt, chauncey wouldve taken nurk out (cause he speaks about accountability)

    nurk did the same with davis & westbrook, even chauncey has spoken about it after the lakers game (the one that we won)
