    • Nurk was huge across the board,
    • Jake gave a big boost off the bench,
    • Meyers with 2 huge '3's in the 4th,
    • .....and some guy named Lillard with 26/8/8.

    Sometimes, on nights like this, we can take Dame a little bit for granted.

    Terry learned his lesson in the fourth. Stuck with lineups that worked rather than sticking to his rotations. AND JAKE played the whole quarter. Great team win.

    nurk fouled out and they made a little run but I think it was a beautiful ending...Layman got a crucial rebound and Dame kept the lead...Meyers played really well...ET rebounded really well...CJ ball hogged when they made a run at the end....I think that's what they refer to mostly...he had a cold stretch shooting

    Layman is becoming a huge factor in our wins. Instead of CJ running into the cheap seats half a dozen more times we are doing something with those possessions. Also Layman has pretty damn efficient with his shots.

    I'm liking Jake more and more. He is such a fluid athlete and isn't just a shooter. He has more in his bag than that. It's fun to watch him grow before our eyes as he gains confidence game after game.

    Nurkic, making me drink the koolaid. I just love the offense going through him, and the Dame / Nurk chemistry is really, really good.

    Blazers out-jazzed the jazz. They scored inside, had 30 assists, and were really physical and kind of grabby. And it was nice to see a team other than Portland go stone-cold in the 4thQ

    Morbier. The cheese is made in 2 layers, the bottom from the morning milking, and the top from the evening's milking. This represents the morning and night workouts and training that has shaped his growth. The bottom layer is covered in a thin layer of vegetable ash for preservation, awaiting the the next milking. This ash not only represents an earthy, grounded, natural essence, but also the ashes caused by Jake torching the net, and shooting pure fire.
