I always want the win but I'm happy that this game is a little close for now it infuses it with a little life.

We’re making a game of it; good for my entertainment, horrible for the team.
 
I find myself defending CJ on this board a lot of the time, but not tonight. His selfishness meter has been off the charts and he's by and far the biggest reason the Blazers aren't way up heading to the fourth.

We should unselfishly trade him.

This was noticeably bad, though. I checked at half and Ant had 2 assists and I thought he had 3-4. In the third, he dished to Nurk for an uncontested pick-and-roll dunk and didn't get credit for an assist. How?

Plenty of times he looks at an open teammate, doesn’t pass, dribbles the ball some more trying to get himself a shot, then passes to a covered teammate at the end of the shot clock.

i noticed the same thing with nurk lately

i would count 4, 5 or 6 assists and hed officialy have 1, 2 or 3

for example, sometimes they count hand off as an assist and sometimes they dont
 
If Billups is a good coach he will leave CJ on the bench for the rest of this game.
He was an awful ball hog.
 
there's not a single mask-wearing fan in the stands.

smh @ the south. we were COVID free until the team went to Memphis/NO

One time that stood out in the first half was when he had Ant open in the corner and Ant was hot. It was almost like he didn't want Ant outscoring him.

Of course, the Marques Haynes dribbling exhibition while Nurk with a mismatch gets a 3-second call made me want to throw up.

And the pass is often bad, not right in the center of the chest. They should make him spend a day with Coach Altman.

Ant is legit. He needs his own team ASAP.

I know the exact play your talking about, and thought the exact same thing. It was disgusting.
 
Well things was good until Billups change the lineup now we got 3 worst defenders on this team now to try close this game.

Ant draws the defence, and immediately finds the open man.

CJ draws the defence, spends the rest of the shot clock looking for his own shot, and only passes the ball at the last second.

Ant’s assists are mostly due to his good playmaking, and his teammate knocking down the open look.

CJ’s are assists mostly due to his teammates individual shooting ability.
