In terms of aesthetics, who has the best-looking shooting stroke on this year's team?

Outscored 24-21 in the 2nd after outscoring the Thunder 42-26 in the 1st...not great but, the Blazers maintained the lead. Only up 13 at the half. Blazers need to come out strong in the 3rd.
 
Carmelo might be the best thing to happen to this team for Hassan, too. Hassan seems to play so much better when he is having fun. Not only does Carmelo open the floor up, but he seems to have a good rapport with Whiteside; you can hear their banter on the rebounds and stuff.
 
OKC has to feel really good being only down 13. Blazers need to come out strong in the third and sustain the lead.
I don't think OKC gives a fuck. They know they're going nowhere this year. Let's put the hammer down in the 3rd.
 
Dame/CJ/Ant..................7-19
Hood/Melo/Whiteside...14-18

Figure it out.
You don't want Dame / CJ to just stop shooting though and I'm not sure they've taken a bunch of bad shots. Ant took a few real bad ones, but for the most part the ball hasn't stuck.
 
Phoenix Suns' hot start was a flash in the pan. They're getting whupped by the Wizards on their home floor and have fallen below .500.
 
Not good offense 2nd quarter but the defense still holding up. Big first half by Whiteside by already getting double double.
 
Dame/CJ/Ant..................7-19
Hood/Melo/Whiteside...14-18

Figure it out.

Ant needs to slow down. Dame and CJ are too hesitant, plus the ball isn't coming back to them when they pass out of the double team. Hood, Melo, and Whiteside are taking and making the shots off those passes.
 
Man I just read the actor who plays Mayhem in those insurance commercials gets just under 5k everytime one airs....that's serious scratch!

Ant needs to understand with this alignment, while he can get a good shot for himself almost every time, if he passes it and relocates, the defense will keep having to recover and he'll wind up with an even better shot the next time he touches it.

His natural ability to create for himself almost works against him right now.
 
Hood WIDE OPEN for the lob....this team just doesn't look for those or can't throw them. Easy points not taken advantage of.
