    Nice win. Really glad to see Ant and Jerami showing the rest of the league the kind of players they are.

    It's time to trade Ant and Jerami. Just move them, get picks, prospects and contracts other teams don't want.

    Camara played the whole second half with four fouls and didn't pick up another. Good on him.

    In fact a few of our players did. Good job on our guys playing through some extensive foul trouble.

    Actually, at the end of the game, looks like Blazers don't really have any animosity. I might be the one who has issues, :)

    Best thing about this win was that the Blazers didn't shrivel up after Dillon Brooks tried his little bully play there toward the end. That's something young players need to learn, to raise their game and shut up players like Brooks by being mentally tougher.

    Deni with a great all-around game tonight. Simons reverted to unguardable down the stretch.

    We might be the most undisciplined team in the league, but those are things that can be patched up eventually. Some of these other little nuances they have to learn on their own and this was a step in the direction.

    I was a fan of Amen but people were skeptical because of his shot mechanics, competition played, and age.

    Simons and Sharpe play well together. Scoot is a negative on the court and he cant shoot.

    Hell of a win! Go Blazers! Deni stepped up huge and it was awesome seeing Ant stand up to Brooks after he tried to get into it with Shae. If Simons can keep this up then I wouldn’t mind him staying.
