    He's in a shooting slump, that's not the same thing as regressing. He's been rebounding extremely well and his passing has been the best I've ever seen... which means it's the best it's ever been. Dude is attacking the hoop really well in the last couple of games but hasn't yet tonight. There's plenty of bad shit on this team for you to feed on, you don't need to just make shit up.

    Was about to say I liked what Kris Murray brought and then he just got completely shook for an easy two.

    You notice he has a soft cast on his thumb, right?

    You can’t win shooting 36 percent against an opponent shooting 50 plus. Not gonna happen. Create higher percentage shots!

    Chauncey's offense makes me sad.

    Well, it's not like they have much of one to begin with, but especially lacking one with whats out there running the offense.

    I'm watching the arena feed, and they have the Tualatin youth cheer out there, and they're wearing the 77-90 uniform styles (with the lower case lettering) and damnit if it doesn't look better than the uppercase fonts they've been using since 91.

    That's the style they should be marketing instead of using the style they use now. I feel like whoever designed the "City" uniforms (or the heritage?) really missed the ball on this design.

    Michael Holton said the same thing I've been saying. Sharpe's dribbling isn't so much of a problem as the (atrocious) spacing in Billups offense around Sharpe.

    There was one possession where Sharpe had the ball at the 3point line and there were three Blazers and their defenders standing immediately in his path.

    Ayton needs to stop going down the court and camping out in the paint. He needs to run to the side like Jerome Kersey used to do and be ready to catch a pass.

    We need more cutting. Too much standing around. Especially Shaedon. Bouyea just shouldn't play. Better to have Shaedon at point. The offense is really ugly. Jabari was really good. Wouldn't mind more Kris. Camara needs to turn it up.

    Chauncey needs a suggestion box.

    The guy that really moves the ball up the court fast beside Sharpe is Thybulle.

    Sharpe's passing has been really nice in this game.
