    Can’t we call timeout to get the ball in front court?

    Nurk +15 & Kanter -20 tonight... and it feels like it.

    I think I'd rather go small when Nurk is out at this point.

    If we keep Melo in the game our deficit is going down to 10 before we’re forced to put the starters back.

    Melo needed to make one effort play. It was right there. Doesn’t even bother taking one step up

    At least Melo is hitting shots tonight....but his defense is atrocious.

    I'm starting to think that CJ ignoring Powell is a thing. There are so many times Powell is wide open but instead, CJ will chuck. If he is hitting shots, that is one thing but he is 4-14 while Norm is 7-10.

    that trap leading to dame throwing a cross court pass that was stolen has become such a regular occurence. that's a nearly 40 foot pass Dame has to make with two guys blocking his vision and another playing the passing lanes.

    how does terry not see this coming and do even the most basic thing to avoid such a play? send a guy close to dame as a release valve, or maybe screen the screener, do something....

    ugh

    Portland just can't sustain efficient play longer than about 4 minutes. They play well, then it's bricks and turnovers on several possessions. Then they play well for a little bit...then suck for 2 minutes
