    Portland finishes February with a 9-2 record, third best in the month in team history (12-2, 1999-2000; 11-2, 1977-78).

    That was a thoroughly irritating 4th Quarter. But good win nevertheless! GO BLAZERS!

    Our defensive rebounding the last three games has been HORRIBLE. Needs to improve if we want to keep winning.

    And 2 points in the last 5:38, are you shitting me?

    Glad we won but God that was annoying.

    Stotts needs to figure out how to give Harkless some minutes. Just because Meyers has had two good games doesn't mean Moe should be riding the bench and vice versa.

    nah...you just don't bench a guy who's having a night like that...either way. It's matchups with Stotts, not personal..Mo will get a shot at some pt

    The Trail Blazers have won their last five road games. Portland is fifth team to win five straight road games this year (CLE, GS, LAC, SA).

    Been thinking about this a bit lately. Stotts wants to win, but I'd bet he's been instructed to play both Harkless and Leonard due to both having RFA status coming up. Since they are clearly the 9th and 10th men in the rotation, he's not willing to give both of them significant PT in the same game, do he's basically giving the minutes in two-week increments. Harkless will likely be back in the rotation after this road trip.

    I've been a fan of this franchise for 40+ years, and I think the last time I had this much fun watching a Blazer team was 98-99, the strike shortened season. The Blazers were not expected to do anything, but decided as a team to practice together through the strike, and compiled an incredible 35-15 season, and finally fell to the equally hot Spurs. That season was fun as hell. This one is turning out to be just as.
