    I'm sure he would relish the chance.

    I just noticed that lotto commercial has a poster that says "Portland Champs Again! 2018"

    Which is funny because the calendar switches over to 2018 right before you see it, so it's a prediction INSIDE a prediction.

    NBA TV and its blackout restrictions can go fuck itself.

    I'm blacked out even on NBA TV because I'm in Indiana. FUCK YOU NBA.

    I'm not giving another dime. Fuckers

    Lillard picked up a foul there, but I like the physicality on the defensive end. Laying the wood on them fools!

    So far I'm not seeing much improvement in the defense.

    11 points, 6 minutes.

    Scales to 88 for the game.

    Not too bad

    No way was the effort the past two weeks or whatever the same as it is so far tonight.

    Lillard has stripped the ball 2 or 3 times already.

    Is that the first shot clock violation we've forced this season?

    I was a few plays behind when I wrote it. I forgot that I paused the game.

    Another forced turnover by the Blazers' D. There is a noticeable improvement.

    I do like that Turner excels after taking contact in the paint. Someone with that element in their game can help us in the playoffs when teams are really allowed to body check us.

    Granted it is against a poor team missing important cogs, but this is what I think we all expected out of the gate.

    Leonard's on a mission to see how many stupid haircuts he can rock in one season.

    Everybody in the NBA already thinks he's an idiot. Might as well roll with it.
