    Never played like that for anybody. That was the best quarter of his career.

    At that point, though, isn't your bluff called? I mean, don't you have to go with Sharpe just because he MIGHT score?

    He was moving. He didn't have position. That was bullshit. The refs were out to foul him out.

    People are blaming Ant for getting cooked by Norm but Norm was cooking Grant equally as much.

    Pathetic 4th, complete meltdown. Shoulda challenged the Grant foul, there was a reach in foul on RoCo I believe on Grants arm BEFORE the charge.

    Yes. We don’t have enough shooters. I’ve been saying this.

    I guess maybe the people who were saying Portland played better without Dame might need to re-think that

    Maybe, but we didn't stop them on defense without Sharpe making that point irrelevant and they were able to sag off four of the five guys on the court and double Ant with no fear of being punished with a 3. Sharpe was our only shooter on the bench. I mean that's part of the problem right there. We need more shooters on the bench.

    Speaking of Sharpe was he hurt before or after the 20 point game he had?

    True, but it's also true that to reach his potential he has to find other ways. He's so athletic. Do something other than waiting to the open 3. Drive. Go over people. Draw fouls. Get to the line. Stunt their momentum.

    Too often he gets on a hot streak so the other team ups the ante and really guards him and he becomes Claude Raines.

    Yeah it’s fallen off drastically just by the eye ball test.
