    Had a chance to talk to Coach Jarrett Jack tonight after the game. Said the staff absolutely love Thompson and Darren. Said they both play 110% everyday whether it’s a game or practice!

    We just ran out of players. I mean we didn't have a single point guard. No big deal.

    My only complaint is that Grant played too much, but considering that we had no one else, I understand. Now that the deadline is over, I want Grant and Brogdon's minutes cut in half.

    I get auto corrected on my phone all the time. I could easily see it changing a lesser known name like Duren, to Darren. I'm trying to improve my proofreading in here because of it though.

    I never even checked final stats. I'm going to dig them up right now.

    Hey, look... the Pistons had 3 terrific Rising Star perfomances, with key rotation players making game winning plays.

    The Blazers were fine until Ant got hurt. Where was Simon's backups ?? A 3 day rest and nobody could suit up and play.

    Was Billups throwing wrenches at the guys in practice ? Dodge, dip, dive, duck, & Dodge !

    young Captain Ivey after one of the best comeback wins of his career. I like this kid's spirit. Anyone who says he has attitude problems is spreading dirtbag rumors.

    Habber Stat missed the mark. Basketball is a 5 on 5 sport. If Anfernee needed a rest, and Jerami doubled his normal scoring average, Then the Blazers are missing a whole bunch of numbers to excuse a 30 point swing.

    without Brogdon, Ayton, Scoot, Sharpe and then Simon’s. Our scoring punch took a big hit. No one to get buckets except Grant.

    That said I’d rather lose than win at this juncture.

    They're moving him along real slow and unlike others I think that's a good thing.
