    We are the sixth best three point shooting team in the NBA @ 36.6%.

    If we'd even shot 24.2% (so three more threes) let alone our season average, we'd have won.

    We were missing wide open threes, so I wouldn't read too much into this result on the offensive end.

    Defensively however, we were bad tonight, especially in the second half.

    NOLA was 6/18 (33.3%) from deep in the first half, and 9/17 (52.9%) in the second, to finish with 15/35 (42.9%).

    Our season opposition 3P% is 35.2%, which is good for 13 best in the NBA.

    NOLA came to play, we were already on our Christmas break.

    That’s why we should trade CJ for him so he won’t have to play against him anymore.

    In past years, we would be laughing at some team from the East for being in the Playoffs with a sub .500 record...

    Well the NBA in a lot of ways has turned into a 3 point contest. Blazers for whatever reason just couldnt get shots to fall.

    A steaming pile of horseshit might be more appropriate.

    Nate Mc Millan's team had 34 assists last night in their victory over Toronto, while Blazers had 17. BTW, aren't KP and Nate doing a pretty damn good job! Without their best player?
