    We played a horrible game in Memphis, and were still within a point late in the fourth. Play a decent game at home, and this is a win.

    I want to see ball movement when the shots aren’t falling. It was easy to share the ball the last two games. Guys were making shots. Let’s see what happens if they aren’t. Do they revert back to what they know and isolate everyone for CJ and Dame? To me, that’ll be the real test. If they could just be stubborn and stick with what they’ve done the last two games, they will end up where they want to be, even if it costs them games in the interim.

    I hear rumors of possibly Anthony Davis getting traded again. I just hope Neil doesn't get involved. We wouldn't want to take that kind of chance.

    We need this win tonight. I wonder if Turner starting tonight is a sign that the Blazers are going to play at a slower pace?

    I hope not. Although if slowing the ball down means less turnovers, then okay....I guess.

    Turner isn't starting, it was just a mistake in the picture.

    I see. I stand corrected, thank you.

    I read some comments on the first page that he was starting, so I assumed he was.

    Memphis is going to want to slow it down so yes let’s keep up the ball movement and slashing for points in the paint. No need to play slow ball along with them. Make them uncomfortable by speeding up the pace.
