They played like shit and still won. That's a good thing. Dame and CJ aren't gonna be off like that very often.
 
Cj AGAIN with the efficient line of 23 on 7-15 shooting 4-5 from 3
 
Dame played so bad, but we all know he's going to have several games this season where he's the complete opposite and hits a bunch of those tough shots.
 
We better get our act together...we play the undefeated Clippers on Thursday
 
Our defense was huge yes Boogie got his but we pretty much shut down everyone else. Nice board work by Davis and Swanigan. Our bench was huge tonight. Dame had a bad game I just hope it out of his system now.

So, are we going to give Meyers props? He played well.

Yeah. He looked pretty good. And he didn't have a run of like 10 consecutive bad decisions to end the game. Which you know, we usually see.
 
You're going to lose 99 games out of 100 playing like this. The Pelicans really outplayed us tonight, they got a lot of open shots, and the Blazers had to scratch and claw for everything.

Abysmal performance by Damian. And just when you thought he may have finally gotten out of his funk, he misses to clutch FTs and dribbles right into a crowd of Pelicans on a fast break with no apparant idea what he was doing.

Someone might look at the box score and think he just had a bad shooting night, but he wasn't even getting off good attempts, he was just putting up crap. His attempts to drive were embarassing. I have no idea what is up with this guy. Is it the Vegan diet or whatever, but at times he seems intent on playing 1 on 2 or 1 on 3. He just plays right into the defenses hands.

Any quality team would have murdered us tonight.

And Nurk...it's 4 games into the season now, and he is not the same guy he was last year. Ed Davis has out played him by a long shot.
 
Tonight's Fun Fact:
Blazers: 18 OFFENSIVE rebounds
Pels: 38 DEFENSIVE rebounds

So, we got almost 1/3 of the rebounds at their end of the basket, wow.

Ed Davis had twice as many offensive rebounds (6) as the entire Pels team.
Swanigan had almost as many at 5.
 
We killed them on the boards. We’re going to do that to a lot of teams this year.
 
BTW, as someone else suggested, Dame and Nurk need to eat steak every night for a month. Nurk needs to fatten back up, and Dame needs to get off that vegan diet.

I didn't think the defense looked good at all. NO was getting a lot of open, in rhythm shots, but just didn't shoot very well. We were letting Cousins waltz down the lane.

It's so irritating to see opposing teams design defenses to stiffle Lillard and CJ, and have great success, but we never seem to do shit to stop the opposing team's best player.
 
If Davis finishes that game instead of Nurk we lose. I'm not here for the Nurkic slander.

How did Davis outplay him exactly? It took him almost twice as many attempts to get the same amount of points and Cousins did most of his damage against him.

It's not so much the record, but seeing the team play well. We've looked a little bit worse every game so far, starting with a fantastic opener, to looking like mucus tonight.
 
When teams trap Damian and CJ, rather than passing to Aminu or Harkless for a 3, why don't they attack the rim?

Chill bro. We play good agaisnt Bucks in a Back to back. We play bad today, last year we lost a lot of game just like that. They Just are tough to beat. Dame plays the worse game of his carrer, he will bounce Back next game
 
The Pacers Just beat The Wolves. We beat them by almost 20. I dont like what a saw tonight and im pretty sure Stotts too. Team Will learn from that

Nurk is not on their level that’s why
