  7. It should be a rotating job, depending on match-ups, who's been hot, direction of the wind, etc.

    It looked like he was trying to throw it off of Huerter and get possession. Huerter just managed to grab the ball. Totally random play that happened in a fraction of a second. I don't blame CJ at all personally.

    Howwwww? he had one hand on the ball just like that red headed beast, but the beast used his other hand to push him out of the way.

    If there's one thing CJ is good at it's holding on to the ball.

    That was a bad lack of situation awareness. It's like in the NFL when you try to intercept a hail mary instead of knocking it to the ground to kill the play.
    Any Blazer player had to be in the mindset that a 3-pointer was absolutely not allowed. He should have been trying to knock the ball straight out of bounds. He did the worst thing he could have done.
    And then we have people in here talking about how "veteran" he is. That was a rookie mistake. Throwing the ball back in bounds never should have been an option, especially not from the corner where he was.
