    I hate to say it but when our best player is this bad we won't go far.

    I’m ready to deal CJ for Simmons and Nurk for whatever. I’m off the Nurk bandwagon, dude is way too inconsistent.

    Obviously this defense allows the 3 ball from the corners especially the left corner. This almost looks like sometimes looks like 1-3-1 zone defense that bottom no way he going be able get out there against corner shot. Don't get wrong it's not 1-3-1 zone defense.

    The Blazers look a step or two behind Memphis. Still low on energy?

    When/why did Nurk morph into late-career Przybilla?

    DSJ leading the team in rebounding so far.

    Who had that on their prop bet?

    can we trade Nurkic for soggy sandwich? Or is that asking too much?

    Hmmm, maybe the future of this team is an Ant/Nas/Simmons Big3

    Little got away with a foul on that Morant drive. Dame can't shoot yet but he's done a good job defending Morant

    these don't look like two of the better teams in the league

    Dame and CJ 4-18 from the floor. We getting out rebound by 10. What keeping us in the game only 6 turnovers and only 1 this quarter.

    Does Nurk know he is allowed to dunk?
