    What I wouldn’t give for a little perimeter defense in the 4th qtr. we’d pull away if we could get some...

    Which brings us back to my original point. When we drafted him, maybe we hoped he could play tough inside, rebound, and hit an open outside shot. So basically Ed's role, but with better outside shooting (note that I'm not saying they are the same player or even that similar in play style). It's not like it's been a given that we were going to keep Ed forever. Lots of trade talk and talk about what to do when his deal expires. He's on the last year of his deal. I hope we keep Ed.

    We are missing Ed Davis. Someone who will bang inside and give us easy buckets and block shots.

    Winning on the road is tough, really doesn’t matter which team it is.

    I’m feeling like Lillard will go off this quarter. Vintage Lillard Time

    Ehhh, we shouldn't have been drafting a poor man's Ed Davis. That's a borderline rotation big at best!.

    Is that actually true? Didn't Turner hit a couple last game? And Pat hit one tonight.

    I hope so. I never expect him to go into God-mode even though it happens often enough.

    Why the fuck is Meyers in?!

    First possession: He's in great position defensively, Barnes is out of control and fading away from the rim, and this idiot fouls him.

    I mean... it was our second first round pick, maybe we felt like we were playing with house money and just taking a shot on a player we liked and hoped we could develop. Not much different then just about every second round pick I've seen us take and he was barely in the first round.

    That's not a charge that's a flop...

    Giving up too many rebounds. We still aren't locked in to this game mentally. Wake the fuck up.
