    To some degree he's limited. He's going to have to play that a few minutes here or there just because of who is unavailable. Quick 3s by Jabari Walker aren't exactly making an already challenged offense look better, nor is Scoot getting right to the hoop and using the rim to reject his own shot.

    Yep, but he's taking good shots tonight. He'll have plenty of nights when they won't go in, but I'm just looking for good decision making, and honestly, he's doing a good job there.

    Without Brogdon or Grant, scoot is just stuck with some awful spacing, and zero offensive creation when they go to the bench lineup. This is a situation in which he's set up to fail.

    Simons got about a 2 minute rest.
    Coach needs Ant to fix his offense.

    Nobody wants to guard Jamal Murray.
    Denver up 8, Billups needs a timeout.

    He didn't come out because Gordon would have been free at the basket. Thybulle should have moved over and guarded Murray. Gave him a free fucking shot.

    This is the 3rd straight version of this play, with a variety of Blazers standing still

    Dear Ant, stop skipping it to the corner. There’s no advantage there.

    Scoot bodyslammed KCP, then complained to the refs about it. That's Rowdy Roddy Piper stuff, i like it.

    Jabari would be such a nice role player if he could just shoot the 3 better. Up his percentage 10%.
