    So at this point in the season it makes sense to play both Ayton and Simons 40+ minutes???

    Banton leads the team in minutes for the second consecutive night, Tied with Simons tonight. Is it because he is so versatile on a shorthanded team? Or Chanucy just likes him?

    I think Camara handed him the stat sheet and circled 10-26.

    Ayton with 30/19...outstanding!
    Banton follows up 30 points from last night with 25/7/4 on 16 shots.
    Scoot with 13/5
    Camara with 15/9/4
    Thybulle with 13/4/4/4
    Ant with 23/4/7

    That was a fun game to watch with the kids contributing all over.

    Ayton is the future of the Blazers...the guy is the real deal...Banton is exactly what we've wanted in the frontcourt for ages....both guys should get a game ball tonight

    Ayton called his last shot in overtime "A great miss."

    Looked like during those last Toronto free throws Roy was trying to remind Chauncey we were supposed to be losing, and Chauncey pointed at the Raptor missing the free throw like, we couldn't lose if we wanted to.

    Amazing that Ayton ended up with 30 because I don't think he made a jump shot after the first quarter. Maybe one early in the second?

    big picture, a loss would have been a better outcome.

    but when the opponent doesn't score their 1st bucket in OT until there are only 30 seconds left...beating them is just about inevitable

    Anyone upset with Ant and Ayton playing a lot of minutes, please remind me of the value we got out of all those Skylar Mays, Kevin Knox, Jeenathan Williams, Trendon Watford, Justin Minaya, John Bulter, and Chase Camanche minutes last year.

    Ayton beasted and got only 1 foul at the end of the game...that's effiecient. How many 7 ftrs can play that many minutes without any foul trouble?

    I don't really get upset about winning a game this year, I knew last year that we had to get into the top three in the lottery. This year.......
