    Yeah but I think we can fix that. It could be worse we could have westbrick bricking shots for us every possession.

    Does anyone really hate on CJ? There are a number that I would say correctly call him out when he is on a 4-15 shooting night going 1-on-3 ISO when teammates are hitting shots.

    That seems fair.

    Yep, CJ, Moe/Chief, Curry, Collins, Hood extended the three quarter time lead of 11 to 14 while Dame rested.

    If I go, will try to come early and stop in. Always great to hang with Blazer fans.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Russell Westbrook is the first "superstar" in basketball that, as an opposing fan, I hope he takes a ton of shots.

    I'll have to pass that along to him. He's parking his jet tomorrow at PDX, but I'm not sure what time....

    Oh, and if we get a skybox, I'll invite the forum. But don't hold out hope. It's short notice.

    I was sweating that game down the stretch. Not just because of the game situation but because my wife would pitch a major-league fit if the game bled into Game of Thrones. It would have been a 2nd battle of the bastards. But the game ended just as the opening credits were coming on...wow!

    * Harkless and Aminu combined for 34 points, 19 rebound, 3 steals, 4 blocks and only 1 turnover. They were great

    * Meyers and Curry were disappointing tonight. Curry can't seem to get open. Blazers might need to set some screens for him

    * Kanter's defense isn't the disaster it was advertised to be. I mean, it's not good but it's not a massive liability either

    * CJ had a much better 2nd half after he stopped trying to go 1-on-5. Dame got fouled about 37 times tonight, and at least 2 of the fouls called on him were total bullshit

    LOL at OKC and all their smack-talk at the end of game 3. Now, it's up to Portland to win game 5...those close-out games are always a challenge

    You can't get a suite.
    I'm on a Credit Union Board. We tried getting one. But there is a waiting list as it sits right now.
