    CJ played All NBA level in the 13 games he’s played. Like All NBA FIRST team. If he keeps playing like that, 3rd team is a certainty.

    Media picks All NBA. Media likes Dame over Doncic.

    You are 100% correct. Not sure why everyone considered Curry an All Star starter lock either. Dame is flat out the best guard in the NBA this season.

    For 2020-21 NBA basketball, this game was surprisingly close from start to finish. Almost never happens anymore.

    Don’t forget Melo. His shot creation has been critical without CJ.

    I think we’ll be better when Cj gets back. It’s going to be rusty at first but I think it’ll start clicking

    Brooke also brought up that Lillard not only didn't have any turnovers this game but didn't have any turnovers in all three games against the Kings.
    I'm betting Kings fans really dislike Damian Lillrad.

    I know a number of fans of other teams that absolutely despise Lillard. Kind of the way we hate Westbrook and Harden.

    The problem is Zach doesn't foul out that much but does he foul yes but majority of the time trying to protect the rim the whole game not wait until the last 2 minutes of the game. But don't get me wrong Kanter was big and so was Covington down the stretch.

    Let face it Zach is not coming back this year let the kid heal properly so maybe he won't have any problems with that ankle.

    Hmmm, if Dame did throw a bad pass, I'm sure Aldo would've posted about it and gone on his turnovers.

    Maybe we have some Dame-biased scorekeepers in Portland that gave the turnover to someone else.

    Or maybe you're thinking of the game against the Warriors (Dame had 5 turnovers), since these were back to back games.
