    Will had 32 points against NO Sunday night. It sounds like he had two hot starts in the last week. So maybe you heard right.

    You have me eager to watch Will Barton. I'd like to see one of those 2 taped games.

    Riverman left late in the game, saying he had to go to work. Now, I understand that he's probably good-looking, but can you really make money that way?

    I came onboard at the end of the first quarter, checked the box score, and Gordon was the big star. I look at the box score after the game, and Gordon was mediocre-to-alright. Now that I think of it, he was invisible in the last 3 quarters.

    Per minute, the stars were Anthony, Tyreke, and Jrue. We need names like that.

    Frazier only played 18 ninutes! How is that possible? Then why did he have to play 48 the previous game?

    Right there is a big reason we were so bad tonight. No real playmaker.

    McCollum played 35 minutes. 48-18=30. McCollum played 30 minutes as playmaker and 5 minutes at SG. Henderson 21 minutes, Crabbe 31 minutes.

    As I posted a couple of times, McCollum wasn't shooting off of passes, which is his main talent. He was busy trying to be a Lillard.

    I see that Babbitt got 2 minutes and Dante Cunningham 6. I wonder what Babbitt thinks as he watches Meyers Leonard.

    Without Lillard, Ed Davis had to shoot more. He shot 1-9, but had his usual 12 rebounds in 18 minutes. 3 blocks. I like him.

    Looking at the box score, I think, our players weren't as bad as it all looked. Not bad. Then I remember, box scores don't tell much when garbage time began in the 1st quarter.

    Ed Davis and Plumlee combined for 24 rebounds in 41 minutes of play. We won the game!

    Stotts commented in the offseason that the defensive strategy wouldn't change in that regard despite the new personnel. I was dismayed to read that, but several people here said to not read too much into it...
