    These refs are garbage. Dame gets mugged the entire drive and no foul is called until he falls.

    Ant has been making some questionable decisions. The ball gets passed to him for an open 3 yet he passes to Josh Hart.

    67 1st half points should be enough for a comfortable lead.

    problem is on defense.

    we gave up 73 pts and a shit ton of free throws cuz we can't guard in transition.

    not sure of this gameplan tonight to play denver's pace.

    Porter hit it right in his face.

    He was open and should have taken it. Too much hesitation leads to us missing.

    portland shoots 47% for two, denver shoots 57%

    portland shoots 44% for three, denver shoots 33%

    we have 4 turnovers, denver has 5

    portland has 14 reb, denver has 21

    neither team is playing good defense, reb are making a slight difference for now

    He got the ball in the corner with enough time to take the shot. He hesitated. Though, with the way he's shooting tonight, maybe it's good he didn't.

    He is shooting terribly and has turned the ball over several times leading to fast break points. He's hurting the Blazers on both ends. Hopefully, he has a better second half.

    Dame is kicking ass and keeping us in it, but he needs help.
