    So glad we didn’t trade Dame for OG. Or, god forbid, Shae for Pascal.

    The Statisticians robbed Sharpe of at least one steal as well. Walker looked great tonight.

    How does Brogdon ball hogging and hero balling in the final minutes help Scoot growth?

    Really?!? A win where they aren't the leading producers doesn't count?

    How about having vets who show them some of what it takes to win?

    I guess any game where Lillard didn't lead the way didn't count either in your eyes?

    Get real. They are a team and we are loaded with guys that are still learning to play in the NBA so if learning and winning some along the way doesn't count as a quality win for you. Prepare for an even more disappointing season.

    Scoot fouled out in the final minutes, so I think it was probably a good thing for Scoot to see what Brogdon did to close out a game.

    Figuring it out just has to be a priority.

    comment of the week. \o/

    gosh darn Blazers won, but it only counts if Scoot hits the game winner.

    Was thinking the same, but Brogdon actually gave Scoot the ball at one point and Scoot immediately gave it back.
    Seems like it is still bit too much for him.

    It wasn't the triple double i expected from scoot. In fact, far from it. But despite fouling out, he did show glimpses of what he can do. He also had many passes that would have been assists but were missed.

    I like the improvement I see from Shaedon as well. He didn't score as much but the willingness to share the ball and defense and rebounds are great to see.

    I was high on Murray but Chauncey made the right call in Walker and Camara as backup forwards.

    I missed pregame chatter. Is Timelord injured? He was not in the game and no mention of him in thr broadcast

    Ayton dominated.

    Grant and Brogdon played superb.

    Overall, great win.

    Ayton’s 23 rebounds is a career high.

    He did it as a Trail Blazer.

    also.... LOL at the notion of the raptors paying 80 mil for Siakam/Anunoby.
