    Not trying to come out with anything too edgy, but i think we should use this 1st half for defensive experiments.

    I'd try:
    -Hood and Turner on Milsap.
    -Collins and Meyers on Jokic.
    (i know we're sacrificing Kanter minutes for this)
    -Don't start with Aminu and Harkless together. They look good against other "scrappy players" , but they're double-trouble against a squad of talented players who happen to be good shooters.

    And play Jake ffs.

    This is my thinking too. Jokic can go for 50 and still lose if you clamp down on millsap and Murray.

    Aminu on millsap. And just show different looks to Murray.

    And for the love of god value the possessions. I'm looking at you CJ and aminu.

    My phone just reminded me Blazers in 30 minutes. In case I forget.

    I have a streaming cold. I never get colds. Can't remember how many years since my last cold.

    As long as Blazers are healthy.

    Your question may have been rhetorical, but I believe the answer is the Pistons game on 3/30/19.

    Yeah, it's on TNT.

    I wish that one day, Lillard will be known as Lord of the Championship Rings.

    Given OKC's antics and the fact we haven't gotten out of the first round for years, it was pretty easy for them (POR) to develop that mental edge. Against Denver? Ehhh. It's not like they hate the Nuggets. Hell, I don't have an issue with them. I thought they were fool's good, but so far so good with them. Just my two cents.
