    Nate McMillan rallies the troops after an embarrassing loss and gets the win in GS

    Was Curry or Ellis hurt? (didn't get to watch much of the game) How the hell could Mark Jackson not put the ball in either of their hands in favor of Nate Rob? That's mind-numbing.

    Robinson was killing them in the 4th.

    Until crunch time, then he became Raymond Felton.

    Ellis was on the bench. For what reason, we don't know. The ESPN guys commented on this same thing, asking if something is wrong with Ellis.

    It makes a ton of sense. Robinson was on fire for much of the game while Monta was off. It didn't work out for Mark Jackson, but more coaches should learn to ride the hot hand.

    Bigger issue for them though is the flawed roster. They couldn't play Curry, Robinson, or Ellis at once because of the height difference. They need to trade Monta and start Thompson at 2.

    I'd be willing to give up Gerald and Wes for Monta and Wright if they want. We'd lose quite a bit of our capspace, but it would be worth it.

    I'm stoked about Gerald and Camby's play. Way to step up and get points boys. I've been critical of Gerald lately, i'm glad he had a great game

    Nic stepped up as well. 17pts and decent D. They were even denying him the ball in the second half.

    considering his contract and current production, right now matthews is somebody you would pay teams to take, not something you'd be "willing to give up"

    Gerald Wallace is the first Trail Blazer in franchise history to make at least 4 3-PT and 8 FT in a game without a miss (Elias).

    Wow, seems like Terry Porter would have done that at least once.

    Mark Jackson said Monta wasn't feeling well all day and he even told him to go home earlier in the day. Don't know about Curry - maybe his ankle was falling off again.
