    Glad to get this win and go into the break at least with the W.

    Still gotta work on that damn defense. The perimeter defense is not good. Overall, I should say, it's not good.

    Dame is the man. LA has kinda fizzled the past couple games. I'm wondering if his hand is bothering him.

    Obviously, Lillard was huge in this one. Robin Lopez played a heckuva game, too, against his old team.

    I'd give props on this night, though to the Invisible Man, too. Batum hit those crunch time free throws. He misses those, or makes only one, and New Orleans has a lot more options on that last possession.

    Portland gave up a TON (16) of offensive boards in the 2nd half. Yikes.

    18 pts, 8 rbs, 4 ast. Not too bad. Not what we've come to expect but that is not a bad night.

    Gramps...

    Not too bad, no, but not even close to what he had been doing, which makes me wonder about his hand. They wouldn't have checked it out if it wasn't bothering him.

    It's by design. Lillard said that there is more attention on LA and it his job to get himself, Nic and Wes going to open up things for LA.

    Best bench line--Meyers Leonard. 2 points, 4 rebounds, 1 block in 10 minutes. Only bench player with a positive +/-.

    I don't think LA shooting 8-24 is "by design."

    His shot is a little off, and a hurt hand could definitely explain it.

    I just want to thank Carlito for his marvelous reverse jinx. Without him, we would have been blown out. Thank you Mixum!

    Lillard picking up the slack is by design.
