    Lawson is so quick. I can't imagine trying to keep him in front of me.

    Defense still looks weak, but this shooting sure is fun to watch.

    Nice try by Batum at the end of the half.

    Feel so much better after this half compared to last game.

    Blazers - 64 Nuggets - 50 - HALF

    Wow. Was not expecting us to be that far ahead at half. I'll take it.

    I just hope he doesn't pick up one early in the 3rd. Oh else in that 4th they are going to try to attack the 'ish out of him.

    Do I really need to go find the posts from you, Kingspeed, and Mixum about blowing up the team? You don't think you deserve to catch shit after the way you and a few others behaved on Wednesday night? You were freaking out after one game. You deserve a little shit after that.

    It's a 180 in terms of defensive effort. Team rebounding looks solid.

    I am loving the intensity tonight. Hard fouls, good penetration to the basket. Gotta stop Lawson from getting to the hole, though......even if he isn't 100%, and it looks like he's wearing down more and more as the game goes on (and as he gets sent to the ground!).

    Yup, and the fatigue won't truly set in until the second half.

    Crazy but most of what we talked about needing improvement is happening tonight.

    Stories of the first half:

    Nic: 8/12, 5/7 3pt, 21pts, 3 reb.
    Lillard: 5/7, 2/2 3pt, 13 pts, 5 ast.
    LMA: 6/14, 12 pts, 3 reb, 4 ast.

    Only 3 of LMA's 14 FGA are in the paint, but he has 4ast...is he playing the Camby role from the high post and passing to cutters? Passing out of doubles?

    While some may say you can't sustain a high 3pt% like the current 61%, we also are 0-4 from the right corner. Normally that's one of the best % shots in the league--efficiency-wise.

    Agreed. Makes me very happy, and did not expect it to happen so suddenly!
