    While triple double for Dame Arizas second time over 20 Whiteside big in the middle. Trent and Little both double in scoring with 10 each.

    they talk shit on the floor all the time, but it's pretty obvious they have respect for each other. They are both intense competitors. I don't hate Russ like a lot of Blazer fans do. The guy works his ass off...his BBIQ is just low at times

    I really didn't like CJ game I don't care how many points he scored he totally didn't play with the team. Just to much iso for my concerns.

    I think the talking ended when Lillard said. "I'm the last person you want to see in the playoffs".
    100% mic drop.

    Our game plan against Houston is routinely great. We had a thorough victory at their place too

    I think the Ariza trade and Trent getting more play has really helped on the defensive end. Plus can't leave either of them open.

    Also Trent is learning from Ariza how to play defense

    It's so complicated I don't know what to do or what to feel. My eyes see things I absolutely hate and the stat sheet is great. Why is this happening to me

    You notice Simons only play little over 9 minutes and got hook quick in the 2nd half. Looks like Trent and Little have by pass him on the rotation. Trent really good job against Westbrook tonight and the reason the kid have quick feet a pretty quick hands. It's 3 game in row he finished the game.

    Harden was obviously dragging tonight...must be a significant thigh bruise or strain

    and....has Simons played himself out of consistent minutes? or is it more of a case that Trent is obviously better on both ends of the floor? or both?
