    Our rookies off the bench have been giving us more than we can hope for from them, so kudos to Leonard and Barton. Otherwise this might be an embarassing blowout

    5 points down with Lillard having an off-night and Batum being forgotten on offense.

    I'll take it. LMA should be fed the ball every time he's in the game in the 3rd quarter.

    Hasn't made the adjustments from last game yet. Struggling to go right as someone said before the season started.

    Nolan Smith is scratching his head wondering why he can't get off the bench over Lillard and Price...

    Didn't you get the memo? LMA sucks and we should trade him for Lamar Odom.

    We're down by 5..... I don't think "blowout" applies.

    Dame's biggest problem right now is his D.

    He said it be a blowout if it weren't for the bench and that is true.

    I can't watch because I can't find a link that works for more than a few seconds.

    From stats, it appears that when Aldridge excels, the other forwards Batum and Hickson become worthless. A zero-sum game.

    The team has seemed to get away from motion and passing. Dribbling too much right now.



    It could be that they were scouted? I'll have to watch closer in the second half to be sure

    Well if there was ever a rookie I thought could bounce back from a terrible first half like that it's Lillard.

    Just FYI, Dame has never not scored in double digits. His career low is 12pts.

    Not related. Batum wasn't that great yesterday and Aldridge didn't even play. When Batum scored 35 on Houston, Aldridge scored 29. Your point is off.

    Ben Golliver ‏@blazersedge Last Blazers player to finish a game 0-for with 11+ attempts was Zach Randolph in 2005 (0-for-12). Only happened 3 times since 1985
