Yep. The defense is looking pretty good!

The offense is a mess, Chauncey is good at motivating, he seems like him and his staff are good at developing players but we need a real offensive genius to get the most out of our guys. I mean we don't need anything this season because we're going to suck but in the off season maybe Joe and Chauncey can find their version of Tex Winter.
 
The defense is drastically better than last year. We rotate and force guys inside to the bigs. We also got wings who can supply interior help and still recover. Really like what I’m seeing, haven’t seen Blazer defense in a long time

Agreed. It's a MUST.
 
Sharpe is the coolest kid in school, but he bullies kids named Kennard

Billups has to scheme more ways to involve Sharpe in plays. Sharpe isn't 20 year old Batum, and he and shouldn't be stuck in the corner as much as he is

Jaren Jackson is a pretty good player...and Marcus Smart should change his name to Marcus Brainfart

Grant with 8 boards tonight. This is the first game I have seen this season, seen a lot of hate towards his rebounding. Got to give props when props are due.

I will applaud Grant for his board effort tonight. I'm mostly just having dreams of Sharpe and Scoot being the best back court in the league within 2-3 years. Ahhh yes Scoot lobs to Sharpe on the break I can see it now...

I know it's incredibly early (and Im only saying this for comedic purposes) but don't look now, but Portland has a better record than Miami AND Phoenix.

And is only 1 game behind Milwaukee...Clearly this means....well, absolutely nothing.

As expected. Heat, Suns, Bucks? Those are trash teams.
 
Well I guess they made shots when it counted but sheesh horrible overall offense. Pure iso. JJJ is impressive but he was called for like 1 foul. The guy is a notorious fouler.

in the last 2 games, Blazers have had a 69-24 FTA advantage. That's kind of insane

A lot of that is take it to the Rim Shaedy just going right to the rack. Wait until he gets really aggressive and tries to dunk it all the time. He really has Jordan level athleticism, I mean he really, really does. I'm not saying he has that ultimate death killer instinct that Jordan had coupled with it, I'm just saying he has that level of reaction time and athleticism its absolutely wild. I still am just gobsmacked by that block at the end of regulation. Unreal athleticism, just UNREAL!
