    What the hell is Lillard doing? If your three-pointers are not falling take the ball in the hoop you might get fouled.

    Knowing the Blazers luck, if they did get the #1 pick in the draft, Victor would be a bust.

    Nassir Little looks really good on offense . If his minutes restrictions go away, he should be a starter. He is more poised on what to do than a lot of the starters.

    They were playing at a quicker pace to be sure. That is just not Dame's style. He is a walk-it-up-the-court type of player most of the time. It doesn't seem to fit with Sharpe, Nas, Hart, Grant and even Drew.

    We're the freaking laziest offensive team.

    We get within 2 powered by three straight buckets in the paint before Nas' 3. So what do we do after that? Sharpe missed 3. Dame missed 3. Payton missed 3. Dame missed 3.

    Stop. Settling. For. Jump. Shots!

    Nassir little is hot from the three-point line. Hopefully his teammates can feed him especially DAME.

    Nas heating up and playing good defense. Even the shot LeBron made on him, was a very difficult, running, fadeaway, one-handed re-load hook shot. Nothing you can do about that. Nas forced a very difficult attempt.

    When did Nas morph from "Short Amare Stoudemire" to "Short Channing Frye"?

    Dame just missed a WIDE OPEN Nas to go 1-on-3. Can't believe they can't get a better shot than that. And now Little goes out after being red-hot. SMH.....

    This is how Dame should start every game. He don’t need Pat Bev to get going

    Someone said he is on a minutes restriction. I don't know if that is true or how many minutes it is.
