The early games were a tease. Toronto, Philly, and Miami all rallied late to win. Boston is ahead of Lakers. Hope we keep pace.

I was projecting a split in Denver and Utah. After 1 win, I got my Hope's up but ...

We need more 3 pointers.

We all view Turner as a 3 point threat, but after a very good start he is slowly sinking away this year to not good enough (<.350).

He also played only 20 minutes yesterday. I expect him to react in a good way and show the passion to do better, starting from the second half of this game all the way to the second half of the season.

He has the capability, why doesn't he show it? Time to grow up and get fully confident. Become a man, Turner.

Back to backs just aren't modern age games, when will the money machine see the light?

That being vented, our "put with the trash secound round pick" hit more 3s than any of our players.

It's times like these, when our best players struggle, you want players to take advantage of their bigger opportunities.

Always staying positive about a reduced role isn't enough. Don't talk you are better than the reigning DPOY, show it.

I thought a 3-2 trip would be good. A 4-1 trip would have been great. A 5-0 trip unbelievable. Still have a chance to have a great trip. Never easy to win on the road. Suns are playing better. Portland is always a tough place to play.

Well that was horrible

Actually, I'm not sure which is worse, getting blown out by 30 points, or losing by 2 or 3 points

Totally agree. We hadn't won at Denver since 2004. Gotta take care of business against the Warriors and split Suns/Blazers for a good trip. Sweep em all and it was a great trip.
