    Exactly. Moe off the bench to guard him would've been ideal. But I'm sure we'll put Collins or Meyers on him...

    He's probably the best defender possible to put on Randle.

    This game will actually tell a lot about Stotts.

    Chief has the same wingspan as Nurk but can guard him at the perimeter...Nurk, not so much

    I dont know if the Blazers have anyone strong enough and quick enough to guard him. They tend to really struggle against guys who can bully their forwards and are just too fast for Nurkic.

    I wonder if Stotts, like many of us, would rather start Layman, and bring Moe off the bench; but he knows that Moe’s ego couldn’t handle that.

    Engaged Moe is far better than pouting Moe.

    If that's the case, we need to bench him. He cant be that fragile.

    A free week of NBA League Pass means I can see the game, but they are only showing Pelicans broadcast.

    I thought Randle came off the bench?
