    Better coaching and players actually executing the game plan by said coaches. That's the difference.

    It’s not just bad defense, it’s just him looking like he doesn’t care. Rather bitch to the refs.

    we also missed about a million open 3s in the fourth. 0 paint presence without nurk to do anything different but shoot threes.

    Will the Blazers learn anything from this game?

    Hell no.

    apparently chauncey spent one of his practice film sessions going over the Knicks' collapse in Dallas the other day late in the fourth.

    he doesn't need to use other teams' follies to make examples; his own team is trash with leads in the fourth.

    That last defensive play by Dame was absolutely embarrassing. No way around it.

    they also need some backup wings/guards that aren’t liabilities. Starters playing 40+ a night is unsustainable

    The problem is like it's always been in years past. You apply pressure to the Blazer offense and it falls apart.

    Yes but the 22-41 is because of the attention on Dame and Ant.

    Exactly....so get the players making shots MORE shots when so much attention is being paid to Dame/Ant.
