How do you feel about home-and-away series during the regular season?

Poll closed Apr 11, 2019.

  1. Love 'em. The competition/rivalry is more fierce & fun playing 2 straight against the same team.

    9 vote(s)
    18.4%

  2. I like 'em. It adds some intrigue and interest to an otherwise long season.

  3. Meh. No opinion either way

    22 vote(s)
    44.9%

  4. I don't really like them. They don't add much to a regular season game.

    3 vote(s)
    6.1%

  5. Hate 'em. I don't like seeing the same team again so soon. And these seem to always end in a split.

    Dame has been known to play like shit and then come out of nowhere to score 20 in a quarter.

    18 FT's compared to 4. 8 TO's to 5. 11 fouls to 7. Dames got 4 points. If it keeps up like this we will obviousely lose but since I doubt it will stay like this I like our chances.

    16-2 at the line for Denver. That's on the refs.

    The turnovers though and missed shots at the rim.....that's on the Blazers.

    It looks like we can't make a bucket in the paint but they're just not calling fouls in our favor...Kanter should have a dozen free throws by now himself

    Given the MASSIVE difference at the FT line, not a bad 1st half. Thank goodness for Jake in that 2nd quarter or that would have been really ugly. Outscored 34-21 in the 2nd.

    Bones- why is Dame so easy to guard? Why aren’t all stars guarded like this? Frustrating.

    You know I'd hope for an adjustment out of Stotts defensively to the second unit in the second half.
    But Stotts and in game adjustments just don't go well.
    He'll prolly just play Aminu 24 minutes in the second half if he changes anything.

    So we've dropped the ball at the rim and whiffed on several layups and dunks, Dame isn't doing anything, the refs are bending us over pretty good, and they can only get ahead by 4. Pfft. Denver sucks.
