    Don't forget 1-9 if we lose tonight. Chauncey needs to convince him to play more off the ball.

    I think it's too early to give up on trying to make it work with him. I see him excelling more when he's moving and playing off the ball.

    Props to Chauncey playing Jabari over Grant and benching Scoot.

    He’s deadly on and off the ball. That’s the kicker.

    The Blazers are 15th in the NBA in defensive rating, but 27th in offensive rating. And they are in a group with 3 other teams that are notably worse than the tier above.

    The Blazers are dead last in TS%. So if you want to know why we suck, that's it.

    He is, but he's better off the ball and Scoot is better on the ball. Since Ant came back the offense completely stalls the way it did with CJ. We need to not make the same mistakes.

    Too much low percentage iso ball. Too much chucking. For years we've been trying to get away from it.
