    I still can't decide if that shot was stupid or stupendous.
    Incredible.

    Surprising win, Seth and CJ were pretty off tonight.

    Feels good man.

    Or Layman. We have enough option that ET should never see the floor

    I believe we won the game thanks to some blazer fan who turned the game off in the 4th. I salute you.

    It was a bad shot man, just went in. We should bench Dame next time in the clutch if he's gonna take bad shot like that. Can't have result oriented thinking amirite ?

    lol it was a horrific attempt. But he's been hitting that all series long, and it makes sense to not let the refs make a decision. I'm sure he would have gotten closer if we were down instead of tied.

    To give ET some credit when he was in late with dame playing off the ball, ET got him the ball several times coming off screen with catch and shoot.
    I love it when he can play more off the ball.

    Theres at least one poster here that I was texting and when they were down 15 I was distraught. I couldnt believe it. Im so glad that a couple friends of mine were nice to me last night. I didnt turn it off, but I was so not thrilled and I was like oh no now we gotta go to OKC and had an epic meltdown at home.

    and with CJ in foul trouble in the first half the team needed someone else to handle the ball at times to take the pressure off Lillard and give him some rest on the floor. We only have 3 guys that can reasonably do that and that's Lillard, McCollum and Turner in that order. Layman does not offer that ability. One of the greatest wins last night, a season in which we are the 3rd seed with 53 wins and people still think they can out coach the Blazers staff from this forum.

    All over America today kids are pacing off 37 feet from the bucket and realizing that's a REALLY long shot.

    Amazing doesn't begin to describe Dame's shot. The game-ender that Curry made against the Thunder a couple years back had similar range:



    But that game didn't have the significance of a close-out game in the playoffs, plus Curry got to step into the shot. Lillard takes a side/backstep away from the bucket and still drains the shot. Un-freaking-believable.

    That shot boosted Curry as the definitive #1 PG and shooter of all time. Let's see what it does for Dame.

    Wasn't that Morris twin the same one that grabbed at Curry's shorts at the end of the game in October?

    Edit: Yup, it was.
