    Jerami Grant should NEVER be taking contested long-range 2-pointers. Tell him to walk back out and take the three. He's an above average 3-point shooter.

    Man, this team is night and day from where they were on opening night last year. That was the worst I had ever seen them. I’m digging this starting lineup and their energy so far.

    The negative for me is that the Blazers were getting wide open 3-pointers, then Jerami Grant decided he'd go back to huck-it-up mode.

    Love seeing Simons dribble the ball full court and score.

    The W's feed is my only option, which means its music from here on out. I live in the Bay Area and can't stand their lead announcer... such a tool

    Ayton is fantastic so far putting the ball on the floor. That is a game-changer for him and the Blazers.

    The Blazers are really forcing things for no reason at all. Scoot and Avdija especially.

    Ayton looks great dribbling, so get him the ball again.

    Banton is probably better than Scoot at this point.

    Saying this for years
    We start the game well. Then Scoot comes in like his hair's on fire. Looks like this is the first game he's played. No concept of how to run an offense or just play relaxed.

    As long as he's playing big minutes, we won't need to tank. What the heck.

    Really want him to succeed, but have doubts, long way to go
