    Getting lit up at point of attack over and over.

    Just think it’s a classic letdown situation. Utah is w/o Markkanen, Clarkson and Collins. Also, being favored for the first time this season. However, there is no reason for this team to be having letdowns versus anyone.

    I think the days of Brogdon playing over 24min a game should be done.

    A good coach would coach him up from the bench in my opinion...the team needs to move the ball around and it should be team first, not ISO your way out of a slump ..

    If they are we need to trade his ass because there are teams competing for the championship that would give him way more minutes.

    Yeah, I think he should have to find it within the offense but I definitely wouldn't sit Shae, that's ridiculous in my opinion.

    yes the Blazers had a rough 1st half, but this is still 1000x better then watching Draymond Green drama.

    You seem to really want this team to be only thinking about the game they are playing. I think most of us want this team to be playing to build towards the future.

    Portland may have flubbed by taking Scoot at #3, but it looks like Camara may be just as good, or better, than Brandon Miller, who was taken at #2.

    Doesn't matter who it is, eight straight empty possessions you stop the bleeding and Brogdan is good at doing that.

    I think that has been the case from day 1. Though I think the league knows he's unlikely to be able to give 30+ and night for 82 games either.

    You see the irony is that post, right?

    I didn't say to not play him at all.
