He makes really good reads, by passing and spacing.

Wtf was that, Booker? Why the hell would you defer to Ulis for your last shot of the quarter?

Lou is playing awesome this season. I think Booker may have a better chance, but Lou is shooting better, averaging more assists and fewer turnovers.

Dragan with a great first quarter.

Ulis is killing us out there. Even he must know at this point that his time as NBA starter is coming to an end. I hope he has an amazing career overseas.

Except he played the entire first quarter and won't play 48 minutes. It would be great if he could have a double digit rebounding game though.

We should trade Tyson to Portland. He'd be an upgrade over Nurkic.

Collins looks like an Alex clone. No touch at all

I'm extra salty this game because I live in Portland and all of my friends are Blazers' fans. Our second unit is atrocious right now. Chriss and TJ need to get back asap.

Looks great leading the bench. Not sure I would love him as our starter. Certainly an upgrade over Ulis.

Looks like he'll need some time. I loved him before the draft... too much, I think.

He avg 19ppg 5ast and 2 steals the 7 games he started when dame was injured. Plus 40%+ from 3. If that Doesnt scream starter I'm not sure there's too many pgs out there you'd be interested in.

*our* starter, I said.

Then again, that was a mighty fine behind-the-back pass.

The rest of the bench had 2 points on 10 posessions.

We've gotta be up there in # of times fouling a guy shooting a 3. If we're not league leaders, we must be close.
