    @TBpup THAT was the perfect time for CJ to pass it back. Driving from the wing, would've been contested, so he dropped it back.

    I was really hoping Lillard was over that 3pt slump. But it looks like that's not the case. Hopefully he gets that back come playoffs.

    As long as Portland doesn't turn it over. They should win this game.

    Dame usually passes it out there. I wish he would shoot that backhanded lay-in more. It's there and it's hard to block. He'll shoot the inside hand layin driving baseline.. I wish he'd use that inside hand for those backhanded lay-ins.

    Hah! Made the perfect decision on both those plays though, sometimes the pass isn't always the best decision!

    Twice I've agreed he made the right decision because he isn't a willing or very good passer. The original comment from @Strenuus was that he made it more difficult than he needed to...which I believe was true. For any decent PG, it would have been an uncontested dunk for Collins.
