  1. the dominance we have on the offensive boards and the steals/stops gives us more positions so every game with proper shooting is gonna be winnable… thats why Thybull health is more important than people think.

  2. Holiday is way better than even Celtic fans know…. together with Avdija dominating the game. and JG current shape…playoff team

  3. The Lakers loss and slow start with okc showed we are missing our point guard attack dogs. Splitter made the adjustments that should help till they are back. Tough to compensate for a missing quick relentless point.

  4. Lakers revealed a major hole in our defense. No answer for 11-13 foot floaters. Hard for a team to get in there, but if they do, it's almost and uncontested bucket.

  5. looking for feedback. Portland has one of the better home court advantages with its incredible crowd. However, I never see any of the players trying to amp the crowd up even more, whether after timeouts or even on a defensive possession. It seems like such a simple thing to do, considering that is the surefire best way to get a crowd even louder.

  6. Having Delano Banton would have been a smart insurance move but instead we have bench players who can’t bring the ball up and can’t score. Yes Banton shoots too much but maybe he was asked to.

  7. Portland won't be a playoff team until Sharpe and/or Henderson develop into a reliable starter, and until they trade for a good veteran 3&D or at least a shooter. Don't rush it

  8. I love this team, and next year, even if we had a Dame off the bench, it would be insane. Not set on scoot yet I think we missed on him but will see when he comes back.

  9. Great start that I knew they were capable of. Now if we could just get some defensive rebounds and cut down on some of those silly turnovers. I’ll never understand how a team this tall could be so bad at defensive rebounds.
