    I never would have guessed Dame had 10 assists.

    Bummer. Especially after the high of the trade.

    Go Layman Go!

    Maybe we shouldve played our best defenders (Zach, Aminu, Moe) a little bit more?

    Mightve helped us not give up 118.

    Defensive adjustments would've helped that too.

    Same problems.

    I hated the guy. Great player but I hate guys who cry the whole fucking game and he did that in his prime.

    Aminu and Moe suck on D tonight but but there wasn't the only one neither but I was little surprised that Zach didn't play due in the 1st half he was the only that contests any shots at the rim.

    Layman played more four tonight than he has all season. That’s not a coincidence imo. Doesn’t look like he’ll be the odd man out. If the roster stays as is, it’ll probably be either Collins or Meyers, although it should be Turner or Moe.

    Dame had an off night. To me that's really all there is to it. If Dame shoots like Dame almost always does and CJ does what he did, we beat the Heat.

    that's exactly what happened, even the 'players-only-idiot-dialog' broadcast crew saw that...the Heat blitzed Dame for the 1st 3 quarters. Same thing the Pels did in the playoffs and a few teams have done this season....shut down Dame and Portland struggles. CJ had great games against the Pels in the playoffs; so did Aminu. But Portland lost all 4 games because the only real engine they have is Lillard, and when he's misfiring, Portland is pedestrian

    On the flip side, if we had a coach who had a playbook that consisted of more than "jack 3s" we probably win this game.

    But one thing I know that CJ and Dame doesn't have no confidence in Harkless and Aminu on the offense end. Now they did play Layman has a stretch 4 tonight in the 2nd half. Hood going to take someone minutes and it won't be Layman. 3 players that I see minutes deducted Harkless Aminu Zach. Especially if Layman can play that stretch 4 and that not good for Zach.
