    The blitz is awful. And Nurkic is just giving half assed effort.

    Little can be such a good and energetic player but he has made three mental errors already. Needs to clean it up.

    Powell and Nas have to get some offense going. Nurk and Nance cannot.

    You cannot be successful with 5 turnovers in 6 min. Ayton just destroys Nurk. Embarrassing.

    Our zone defense is terrible and the out bound zone we was in the players had no clue.

    I keep waiting for that breakthrough, where the team all of a sudden "gets it". It's just not happening yet.

    I liked how Roco attacked the basket, even though he got rebuffed.

    CP3 with more assists than the Blazers have FGs.

    Why can't there be a solid hedge instead of an all out blitz that puts Nurk miles from the basket?

    This team plays defeated. Half the guys don’t know what they’re doing, the others seem resigned to losing.

    I would gladly trade the iso-heavy, low assist, highly efficent offense from last year for whatever this is...

    The biggest change we've seen this year isn't improved defense, but a declining offense.
