    Outlaw and Blake not playing much and the Blazers are 11-2 with the current starting 5.

    Thanks Pritchard :clap:

    I also love that Miller is a ironman. We don't see that much on the Blazers! :)

    By not playing Outlaw they are drastically reducing his chance of injury. When will Nate and KPee learn this? If you don't play players they won't get hurt. The Clippers are just a better run franchise then ours.

    Travis is a specialist - he can be a dangerous scoring threat off the bench. Good teams have a place for guys like that. Bad teams don't.

    My guess is they know Travis isn't going to resign with them so they are developing other guys.

    Actually, I think Blake is a better backup PG than Bayless.

    I feel bad for Blake and Outlaw. Last season, they were the starting PG and the third leading scorer respectively on a playoff team. Now, they hardly play on a horrible team. Sad. I hope they find better homes next season. Maybe with us? They're better than Bayless and Webster.
