I think the biggest part of it is, prior to this, he looked meh, good on occassion, but was backed up by...?? nobody. So in comparison, he was ok. Now, we see what Nurk looks like, and the HUGE contrast between Nurk and WHiteside makes his lazy play more obvious.

Really pleasantly surprised by terry not placating to Hassan here and sending him to the bench. Time for big boy pants
 
Positives:
- Our bigs are doing a great job on an island against guards
- Melo is hitting shots, and having his best defensive game of the season.
- Our bench is good now with Trent and Whiteside. Helps that Mario played well.
- Defensive pick n roll schemes seem to have been varied, and it's part of the reason Morant hasn't gotten going (Good job Stotts! But why couldn't we do this all season?!)
- One of the best games this season in terms of us getting out on 3s.
- Ball movement

Negatives:
- Whiteside and Collins with 4 fouls
- A couple bad possessions in terms of defending against transition
- Dame's 3 isn't falling
 
Yikes... but everybody makes a run in the NBA. We just have to stop that shit right now and go on a run of our own.
 
We have to stop going to Melo. He should be strictly catch and shoot only
 
3rd quarter is always the Blazers weak spot
