    Don’t worry, someone will still find a way to complain about Ant. It’s inevitable.

    Saw more from Scoot. He'll definitely have worse in the near future but he's also going to have a lot better games. Scoot is for real and just needs time to figure things out at this level.

    Solid wall to wall win tonight! Everyone played great on both sides of the ball. Lot of balanced scoring. Reath should get the game ball in my opinion.

    they're either saying "hey, I remember this feeling"

    OR

    "this must be what Portland fans feel like"

    OR

    "at least we're not Detroit....we're not Detroit!" (kudos for those who get that reference)

    Nice to get this win tonight and maybe the next 2 vs San Antonio because that January schedule is an absolute beast.

    Not me!

    The only thing I could complain about is that this hurt our lottery odds, but even that seems inappropriate with how well everyone played!

    Fans needed a home win like this and Chauncey really needed to have the bleeding stop

    I'll never be down on a Blazers win but we better savor it. Not many good teams (and we play a lot of them) are going to come out and give such a pitiful effort on defense like the Kings did tonight. I'm happy as a Blazers fan but I bet Kings fans are livid. Just pathetic what they did tonight and it didn't have anything to do with who the better team was it's just that one team worked hard and the other phoned it in.

    Kings not named Fox shot 3-27 from beyond the arc (11%).
    Light the Beam turned into a Hello Kitty flashlight that needs batteries.

    If we're going to blame Billups for the bad losses, it would only be appropriate to give him a ton of credit for how well everyone played tonight. Seemed like every lineup he put out there played well.
