    That was a frustrating sequence! Can't somebody work with Zack on his hands? Sure, maybe he doesn't have big hands but a lot of guys without big hands hold on to the ball.

    Nurk showing some tiredness on court. Not as active on the boards or defense today. That was one of the poorest periods of play i've seen by our Boyz. Melo lively but that's about it right now. Got to step our energy up.

    Zach Collins has 2 rebounds and 1 turn over....not going to cut it...7/0/2 for a starting PF is weak sauce

    Still a ton of upside and coming back from injury. I'm not ready to give up on his potential.

    Trent might be an antagonist, which I like.

    Why does this team struggle against short handed teams?

    Hopefully Simons watches film and can take that charge in the future.

    CJ has played 477 games as a Blazer. I would hardly call that "quickly".
