70 pts from LA and Dame! They came to play!

When was the last time the Blazers had two players score nearly 40 Pts in the same game?

Only got to see the 4th quarter which looked like dog crap.

But, it sounds like Lillard and Aldridge just didn't get any help.

For a team leading the league in rebounding, we've had our keisters handed to us on the boards the last two games.

And true to form, the lead story is Rose's 31. Let's see how long it takes to talk about LMA's 25 in the first half *(35 total) or Lillard's 35

Pretty much. And leonard played the worst 5 minutes of basketball in the last decade.

That loss is on the bench. They took a collective shit in the 2nd quarter.

Yep. Hopefully it won't be 3.

No I was corrected earlier in the thread. We lost 2 games in a row early in the season

In retrospect this loss is definitely on the defense. They got what they wanted in the paint all night

Sinobas, let it all out mayne.

he complimented la and dame, said the bench sucked.

but really, it was stotts putting in leonard. crabbe and kaman did fine, but leonard fucked up EVERYTHING.

HCP has to make a highlight vid of Leo from this game. The worst basketball you'll ever see.

I think not. This game was a scoring game and Portlands' bench was out scored 40 to 15.
Stotts must begin to get the bench guys ready to contribute. Putting guys on the court about once every two weeks ain't going to get it done.

The key is to have LMA play amazingly during wins instead of wasting those performances on loses.

Exactly... But you know Rose was at an MVP level tonight. Then our guards had no defensive answer for Brooks

As a fan, it was an amazing game. 3 superstars playing at a superstar level. That 6 minute stretch when Leonard came in just killed us.

Was he completely lost on defense again?

He was just lost in general.

7 point lead after 1 after lma scored 21. stotts subs lma for leonard, we go from up 7 to down 11 in 5 minutes. never got the lead again.

yes, but besides Nic and LMA the other starters were not good, especially Rolo and Nic had yet another sucky game.

plus subpar efforts from EVERYONE else except perhaps Blake who was average

Haven't been able to watch this game or the Twelves game but looking at just box scores we'v been out out rebounded by over 30 and shot 38 less FT's the last two games. Those stats would indicate we'v been out hustled badly the last two games. If thats the case its hard to see us outworking a very bad but tough Pacers team tomorrow night.
