Scoot Henderson looks terrible. Portland is tanking even harder than us.

Miller and Gooden are insufferable. First game I’ve really watched all season, but this is awful.

I like the way Tristan goes up with both hands to contest shots.

It's crazy how hard some teams are tanking. Portland isn't playing Simons, Sharpe, Brogdon, Grant and Robert Williams, among others. Only Williams and Brodgon have real injuries.

Our zone defense is a disaster. It's just a layup line. I don't understand why we are playing zone.

This is hard to watch. Why is Poole playing the entire quarter and deflating the ball on every single possession?

This Tristan Vukcevic kid is a keeper! Post missing a dunk he gets a steal and a great dime to Poole.

Vukcevic is really an exceptional passer for such a young big. He made a pretty impressive behind the back pass to the wing on the break. And then a second later made a brilliant dart of a pass to a cutting Jordan Poole.

The kid has all the tools to be a really good offensive player. He just needs to get stronger and tougher on D.

Tristan also needs to make more shots lol. He definitely isn't shy.

Yeah, that 3-ball need to fall a lot more. I'm not too worried about it though. His form is good. It'll come around with more reps and a higher comfort level.

Banton is going to regret shoving Omoruyi to the ground. Omoruyi has been inside his jersey for the rest of the quarter. He's gotten nothing since.

The Wizards are totally outplaying Portland. They just can't hit a 3 (5/28) and have missed two wide open fast break dunks. The Wizards should be up 10.
