    So far so good for Reddish. He can shoot for sure

    Yeesh. Can't defend these guys 1-on-1. They're consistently getting 2 feet in the paint.

    if reddish can just focus on hitting 38 percent of his open threes and playing somewhat passable defense, and nothing else, he could be our starting 3.

    Our starting forwards have 2 rebounds between them in the first half. That’s pathetic.

    SGA is a total grifter.

    Yeah, they’ve screwed us out of at least 5 points

    I'm steaming at the Blazer defense

    to review, OKC is shooting 57% on FG's and 55% on three's...and they have 72 points

    I though Chauncey knew defense. I guess maybe he knew how to play it. He sure as fuck doesn't know how to coach it

    Better coached, more length and most importantly more future 1st round draft picks

    How is it that we have this superstar and can't be better than mediocre.

    if the Thunder are the better team, why are they behind Portland in the standings?

    I talk a lot of shit about the way this team is managed. But here I am every damn game to watch this. Someone should give Blazer fans an award, I swear.

    Just curious, what's the last score first PG to win a ship besides Curry? I am thinking too, just a little tipsy and honestly looking for an answer LOL. Like, uh, maybe, IDK, Walt Frazier?

    It’s coaching and simply lack of focus. The players don’t seem to understand the scheme and don’t know where to be. Players continually losing sight of their man and getting beat back door. Tons of missed assignments and miscommunication.

    Tony Parker?

    But you’re right, not many. And I have a decent buzz too

    OK who is this guy with Lamar Hurd? He’s pretty good. Better than Jordan Kent

    Good answers, I guess I meant when he was the superstar of the team though. To be fair I didn't clarify, but then again it's not a test.
