We are already letting them have too many 2nd chances. Where the eff is our box outs?
 
Some please teach these blazers how to rebound on the defensive end. So frustrating!
 
I wish Green was playing. I prefer to beat teams at 100%.
 
We are near perfect from the field and still trailing. Yikes, not a good sign.

I know that Joel and Greg are great defensive rebounders, but cleaning the defensive glass should not be the responsibility of just one or 2 players- the Blazers needs to box-out/rebound as a team. That's the best way to achieve dominance on the defensive boards.

Yes. Ibaka is their third best player. But with him starting and Green not playing, their bench is severely weakened.

I guess, but I'd take 35 minutes of Ibaka and Durant sliding over to the 4 for a few mintues over 35 minutes of Jeff Green and Ibaka getting 20ish or so (split between the 4 and the 5).

This is rather hard with a team that has two perimeter guys you need to rotate to (Durant/Westbrook). Having a big body like Joel/Greg in there makes it a lot harder for the other team to get in for the offensive rebounds.
 
I bet Andre's son is watching--he usually plays a lot harder when he knows family is in attendance/watching.
 
If we win, we will have the 6th best record in the NBA. 5th best if Dallas loses.
 
It's great to see us getting to the FT line, giving OKC a taste of their own medicine.
