[AldoTrapani]

Gary Trent killing it man

 

[BlazerBeav]

GTJ!

 

[B-Roy]

Gary Trent really looks like a carbon copy of Wes Matthews.

 

[Darkwebs]

Scary Trent Jr is a bonafide scorer.

 

[illmatic99]

Nas can be as good as Jaylen Brown.

if he ever gets the chance to play, maybe

 

[Tince]

Scary Trent Jr is a bonafide scorer.

He's so warm OKC helped off Dame one pass away; which was a mistake.

 

[Duckhook]

Even short-handed, I feel the Blazers have more weapons now than last year

 

[riverman]

Roco with his 4th block!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Is it just me or are the Blazers playing good defense?

 

[BlazerBeav]

RoCo is killing it!

 

[riverman]

15 board by Enes

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

good pass and a good catch with Lillard and Kanter.

 

[James lamphear]

Kanter having a real tuff time around the hoop tonight.

 

[Scalma]

So Trent is starting at the three when CJ comes back, right?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

So Trent is starting at the three when CJ comes back, right?

I doubt it. He’ll get lots of minutes though.

 

[riverman]

With Hoodie out it's good to see Roco and DJJ bringin' it on both sides of the court

 

[BonesJones]

Is it just me or are the Blazers playing good defense?

Not just you. They've finally cut down on all the silly mental mistakes they were making earlier this season. We have solid defensive personnel and enough offensive talent to still play like a top 5 or top 10 offense.

Still want to see us against an elite offense where being solid might not be enough and where we may have to throw different schemes and looks at them.

 

[DameLill379]

That will coming shortly when they face phoenix and the Lakers.

 

[Darkwebs]

Gotta push the lead to 30+ so that we can rest our starters in the 4th

 

[James lamphear]

We holding 23 percent from the 3.

 

[riverman]

I'd say Roco and DJJ are finally learning to use more schemes than they did with virtually no training camp.....it does seem like guys are learning where teammates like to be on the court...all these things are making us a better team...I like what I've seen

 

[Darkwebs]

The OKC's challenge has been DENIED, just like OKC players going at RoCo near the rim

 

[riverman]

Gotta push the lead to 30+ so that we can rest our starters in the 4th

Get Blevins 12 minutes with a cushion

 

[B-Roy]

Enes is getting mobbed on these rebounds.

 

[B-Roy]

Looks likes Enes got his shoulder pulled.

 

[illmatic99]

guys look fatigued. need some bench action

 

[James lamphear]

Just like the 2nd quarter start off hot and cool at the end of the quarter.

 

[riverman]

Nas for DJJ...good substitution

 

[BigGameDamian]

Dort is good!
