    I wonder what Mitchell would've done in PDX coming to a team behind Dame and CJ. I guess best case is sort of a Hardin OKC style 6th man.

    Or maybe he would've demanded a trade elsewhere before his rookie season.

    Man, is there anyway at all we can land Jaylen Brown? Absolute perfect fit for our squad.

    Would you trade Simons for Josh Richardson?

    He is... watching him play with his offense and defense, perfect for the Blazers

    At that point if we had drafted Mitchell I would have traded CJ.

    Are we at the point now where Dame has accepted his fate and we're doomed to see this same rerun every fucking year? The Dame/CJ/Stotts show?

    Refs are doing a hatchet job on Dallas so far in this game.

    I dont see much defense in these playoff games.
    Games made for Offense.

    My thoughts as well. Supposedly the Clippers have a bunch of elite NBA defenders.

    That Porzingis ejection certainly buttressed your contention.

    They have forced Luka into 9 turnovers so far. He's on quadruple double watch tonight.

    I didn't like Porzingis' first tech, but that mini scuffle with Morris is almost always a tech. He was outside of the play and chose to get involved. I'm not a believer of the theory that the standard for the 2nd tech should be higher than the first one. I think far too many 1st techs are given out and the refs try to look the other way on the 2nd ones. I prefer they just be consistent.
