    More like the Blazers lack a game plan.

    If the Blazers really want to get Sharpe the ball, it's pretty easy. Get it to him around half court. Having him stand in the corner is just stupid.

    They always lack a game plan. The only variable that changes is the opponent.

    I did that meta-analysis on Blazers vs Opponent FTA over all fifty years of the team and we are a -3FTA on average for our entire existence.

    I do like the Scoot lobs, it’s nice he can throw those.

    Scoot should just take open threes. He looks terrible dribbling into the paint.

    Clingan being a +1 tonight isn’t an accident. He’s making a difference out there.

    Note how OKC calls a timeout immediately after a short POR run because of miscommunication on defense

    Don't like what I've seen in regards to Shaedon so far tonight. He hasn't seemed to want to assert himself and his teammates haven't really been looking to set him up to get going.

    The paint is a nightmare right now; they need to establish other folks to give him space to work first.

    Okay I am joining the Mediocre Man game. Looks like it might be the coach in a runaway!

    Scoot with 5 assists in 16 minutes tonight.
    OKC now 0-6 when Clingan contests them.

    Yeah the spacing definitely hasn't been there for any of our guys to operate comfortably, maybe with the exception of Banton.

    Our Euro players are getting made fools of out there. Please throw normal passes.

    Sharpe should have the ball immediately. Scoot having it is a waste of the shot clock.
