Anyone know what the beef was about between Lillard and Russell?
(apart from the obvious: Russell is a little piss & purple turd)

man my general disposition about life changes for the better whenever we win.

Thanks for that, you rock! It confirmed my beliefs

Doesn't it sure look like Russel is calling Dame a chump as they get separated? Looks like he says it twice. "Chump. Your a chump."

Man, dame is such a great leader and this is yet another example.
I LOVE that he said he was not going to just let the elbow go and he made that known and anything said after that he could care less about. He doesn't give a shit about the shit talking and thus, I don't think anyone will ever be able to get into his head with shit talking because he KNOWS he does everything the best he possibly can. Including trying to improve on things.

He plays the game clean. He is on the up and up. Fuck I love this guy. Not like @Cippy91 give my life love, lol,
But more like @yuyuza1 type love when he says...

He's easily my favorite Blazer since the late 80s/early 90s Rip City era!

The last 30 seconds of that D'Angelo Russell interview are unintentional comedic gold.

Starting around 1:10:

Russell: After the little whatever you call it, we just, we just deferred. We never, we didn't throw any punches and go forward, and you know, and, and compete more. We turned it down a little bit.

Reporter: Do you feel like when you play guys like Lillard, and the Steph Currys and Chris Pauls of the world that they have that extra gear... when they need it?

Russell: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know about them. I have it. So...

Yes, you do D'Angelo. You have an extra gear. It's called reverse!

After the "incident", you were personally outscore 13-2 and your team was out scored 44-24. Way to take it to that next level!

BNM I enjoy your post very much.
I do not post often as I am now 80yrs old and slow typest. I have been a blazer fan since 1970 however and read this forum all the time.

A coment that might be considered is that the blazers do not get respect from officials so they are becomming more caucious in the first half on the road to
conserve fouls. They then can go strong in the second half. Seems to be what they did last night.

Dame also contributed stats to help his tamemates even though
he was off shooting.

Not sure if I buy the foul concerns. No one on this team outside of Dame and C.J. should be holding back for one second because they are worried about picking up fouls. We are supposedly a deep team, and that should be one of the advantages of that depth. Everyone should be going all out every second they're on the court. Someone gets tired or in foul trouble, next man up!

I'd really like to know what Terry said to the guys at halftime. Must have been one hell of a speech!

Damn it BNM, how dare you bring facts like that into this discussion. Some Laker fan may visit here and be offended.

dame: "he poked the bear, and you see what happened the rest of the game."
