    "Dame and CO are 1-7, so you see what NOP is trying to do"...

    Um, Dame was 1-2 at the time with 2 passes to open shooters that should've been assists.

    Im almost completely convinced at this point that CJ is either hurt and not saying anything or there is something going on in his personal life

    I assume the rotation will tighten in the 2nd half.

    Will be interesting to see what the line-up is when the full bench is in. They are going to need to hit some shots.

    Similar to 2011 when Portland played the Mavs late in the season.
    They kept small guards in and Portland took advantage of it. Many used it as why Dallas didn't match up well with Portland.

    Only difference is Carlisle is 100x the coach Gentry is.

    Yeah.. Nope defense has given us great looks. We shoot like we normally do, were up 10.

    CJ has had some wide open looks, he can't hit chit so far, he's gotta step it up

    CJ doesn't play defense, he can't hit a shot......bench him. He's a liability otherwise.

    Thankfully New Orleans has probably the worst bench out of all playoff teams.

    If Baldwin is in, I have a feeling that he's gonna stay in the rotation until CJ steps out of this funk.
