    Wish Clingan would dunk when he is close to the basket. Shades of Nurk....

    I don't think we have had too many 17-0 runs this season.

    We’re so good. Only 3.5 games behind Suns and looking at 2 game road winning streak.

    I think most of that run was with Ayton and Henderson on the bench.

    It started with Deni airballng a 3. Then Scoot way off on a 3. Then Ayton. Oh well, I’ll take a 9 point lead on the road.

    Saying this for years
    Ant's playing lately more like a guy you keep. He's making plays for himself and for teammates. He's worth a good return in trade when he's playing this way, but I don't know that anyone will give the Blazers appropriate value.

    Deni playing like Deni; he's good in all areas almost every game. Shae looking good tonight, too.

    Scoot, man, I've got to give it to Scoot. He doesn't have off-games. When he plays bad, he's horrible. Hard to believe this is the same player we've seen the last couple of games. Tonight he doesn't look like a G-Leaguer.
