    Babbitt looks lost on defense and JP is a fouling machine (again).

    I hope we get to see this sharp-shooting of Babbitt soon.

    Babbit's hoping the same thing, methinks.

    He hit a long two just as I write this!

    3 and a fast break steal/layup by Mills. 11 point lead Blazers!

    Well regardless of who is what and what not, this has been fun to see the pace be much faster than we are all use to.

    Johnson looks like much more of a PG than MIlls. Money well spent, so far

    Positives so far: JP's energy on the boards and in the post, Armon's D, some nice passes and getting to the cup, Mills looking more comfortable
    Negatives: Babbitt looks a little lost, and tentative, Dante needs to get more active, the scrubs do nothing for me.

    Babbitt has looked like a good all around player as well

    I have to concur ... looks very comfortable in the half-court (which is all they ran at Nevada).

    Mills with 5 assists in the first half; Babbitt Comes Alive!

    Babbitt with a nice take to the hoop. That was nice to see him put the ball on the floor

    I liked what Babbit did. Showed some range, had a nice drive to the hoop. I liked his rebounding as well in that first half. Cunningham is doing a little to much, seems as if he is trying just to hard. Mills was nice, so far with just the first half and one game, I think you keep him over Johnson

    Anybody wondering if Bayless' time with the Blazers is about to draw to a close? Johnson looks more effective on D and with the pass and Mills is looking more comfortable running a team and with his outside shot.
