And so ends our 4-game losing streak.

Now the Blazers are home and can start a streak in the opposite direction.

Their passing was terrific in Chicago. Also, the previous game was the first time all season the Blazers held a team under 100.

Can the Blazers carry that forward?
 
I voted for Rodney in the poll....Lamar Hurd mentioned Rodney has the highest 2 pt field goal percentage in the league...he's been solid with his jumper from all over the court..Skal has a good looking shot...Melo has a great looking shot ….hell we got shooters but I'm showing Rodney some love in the poll
 
Dame's shot is effortless. The release is a bit low, but he gets it off quick.

Melo's is classic, as is CJ's.

Lowkey, I really like Skal's shot mechanics. Reminds me of Aldridge, but Skal's is smoother

Yes! Rodney deserves attention for scoring from many spots at key times. He has a great looking shot, and is currently virtually tied with 62.8% at the top of TS% with Hassan who is at 63%.
 
As long as play as a team like in Chicago with ball movement we will be find. If Melo getting his shot back other going have to play that unit differently. Chicago continue try trap Dame and Melo made them pay.

Those guys balled out in SF to beat us..credit to them.I couldn't name one player on their roster which says that early in the season they probably weren't on any scouting reports....don't think they'll surprise us next time. The only team I won't give any props to wears the purple and piss.
 
Hope Trent is active and in the rotation. He’s earned a closer look. Bazemore can go back to doing what he does best; waiving a towel.
 
@Darkwebs your poll questions are way too hard this year lol.
I finally went with Dame, but there's a few guys who have really nice shot mechanics. Skal, Dame, CJ are the ones who stick out, but even beyond that, not a lot of Ugly shots... Why wasn't Tolliver on there?? lol

Agree with you on all counts.

CJ's stroke is textbook. Dame's is effortless. Skal was on my short list.

I voted CJ for his stroke arc and follow through.
