    Wizards did that in the 2nd too. We’re lucky we are not down more. We better fix it or we will get blown out.

    If you have a 12 point 2nd quarter and are only down 6 you consider yourself lucky.

    The same thing they've done the last 6 years. Pray that he doesn't go ice cold.

    We are not beating the Suns so I already put an L for that game. This is a must win

    Problem was on both ends that quarter. Given how much better our offense is than our defense, the dropoff was more in that regard than anything else.

    Would be nice if our offense could help hook get good looks instead of him having to shoot contested 3s or extremely contorting his body to try to get layups off against a collapsing defense.

    You're not wrong, but we struggled to make shots because we settled/got bad shots, because we didnt move the ball and barely ran any structured offense. What I said correlates with what you said.

    Last season I’d have heartburn going into the half. This season, I don’t have any doubt the Blazers will overcome and win. Just my intuition but it’s served me well this season so far. The ‘zers got this!

    Messin with you. If they continue to have the same problems and don't move the ball better Stotts will say the shots didn't fall. It will be correct but there is always a reason.

    Yup. What's crazy is, if they get the same shot quality, I think they still shoot better if they're moving the ball. The offense just has a better rhythm to it and the players seem more comfortable. Might just be me, I dunno.
