    Do you really have a problem with a guy that pulls for the Blazers as much as Bones? Really?

    Tagging him. Calling him a homer. Classic baiting. No broken rule yet.

    Yeah he has missed a few no question. They looked like open shots though. I didn't have a problem with him taking them.

    But theyve been good shots and it hasnt kept him from trying on defense or cutting to the rim. Sometimes the basketball just doesnt want to go in the hoop. Ill give @Boob-No-More some credit for this I think he definitely looks better in the 2nd unit than Curry did.

    Really think about it if he shoots his average from deep the Blazers have a pretty comfortable lead right now. I actually think overall he played a good half.

    Aminu should guard Gibson and Nurk should guard Towns

    It’s funny now that Aminu is guarding Towns it requires us to double team Towns thus making us play catch up on their ball rotations

    The thing is he keeps them honest.They have to guard him. And yes he does move without the ball better. He also works harder on defense right now anyway.
