    Reminds me of data projectors. Turning them back on too quickly ruins the lamp.

    Guess they saw our previous game and learned the secret art from the Clippers.

    Is this a joke? Horrible pass leads to turnover and then Aminu bumps off Lillard so he can't contest a 3

    I reckon New Orleans and Portland should agree that whomever loses a coin toss has to give their franchise player to the other team, so that neither Davis nor Lillard is wasting his basketball prime. Then we need to work out a way to rig the coin toss.

    Earned losses are probably the most frustrating things about being a fan.

    Can't expect to win games when the other team shoots 20 more free throws than you do.

    Meh. This team is basically just Damian Lillard so far.

    Have to say: Nurkic and Jokic are a great young frontcourt. I'm envious.
