Holy shit aminu.
You weren't even engaged with drummond. You just stood there and watched the layup. Guy could've passed to Drummond too.
What exactly does it take for this guy to lose minutes?????
 
Things is, our transition defense should be GREAT with this lineup. Layman, Harkless, & Aminu are all switchable. Plus, they're playing 3 guards so they're switchable w/ Dame to an extent.
 
Jake needs to wake up. He's looked really lost lately. That really concerns me.
 
Harkless and Aminu not slowing Griffin down I would try Zach on him. Because it's layup for Griffin right now.
 
The lineup combinations for both teams should make it very easy for Portland to guard the closest Detroit player in transition without getting mismatched.
 
I almost said that, but I believe Hood only played one year in college.

EDIT: He played at Mississippi State in 2011-2012, and at Duke in 2013-2014.

It's Ish Smith and Aminu
 
That's not a zero on Dame's jersey, it's a bullseye!
 
I hate that we're in "we can't lose this game" territory. This time of year, when the blossoms turn pink, and we get a few 60+ degree days, are THE MOST FUCKING STRESSFUL
 
Larry bird 2.0 casually palming the ball low as he starts to elevate and gets it stripped away.
A 10year old could strip the ball in that position.
 
Lillard / McCollum / Hood / Griffin / Nurkic would be so much fun ugh.

Yeah he needs to fix that. Coaches need to teach him to keep two hands on the ball and to keep it at chest level, and close to his chest.
 
Not a good shot Dame. When 2 players are hedging on you 25' from the basket, don't bail them out by jacking up a step-back '3'.
 
Aminu HAS to force griffin up higher when they run the Drummond & Griffin p&r.
It gives nurk time to pick him up.
Otherwise Griffin will walk to the rim all night in that action.
