Beal out with lower back stiffness

Dang Beal out already? Can Ishbia buy them hypobaric chambers LBJ uses for his recovery regimen?

At this point I would just sit all our starters to prevent any injuries at least for Beal and KD.

Did Book and DA hug right before tipoff?

Nope, passed right each other without saying a word, same with KD.

Darn. I am hopeful there is no bad blood between the players. Maybe they are going out for dinner after the game.

Unlikely. Things close early here in the Portland area. :lol:

DA did acknowledge Nurk and Eric Gordon.

Looks like Simons - Ayton PnR will be something the Blazers feature. Has been solid for them so far. Ayton still looks stiff as hell in that mid range jumper/floater though. Looks like Simons is the primary initiator overall for their offense but they've done a good job of having Grant and Scoot get their turn with the ball.

Uh what else...KD and Book have had a lot of good looks but haven't really been knocking them down.

Not much else to say. Pretty standard stuff. Oh, and Shaedon Sharpe is really athletic.

Eric Gordon is too good to be a vet min player. What a steal

Eric Gordon is really good. Hes going to be awesome for us this season.

Thybulle is an interesting player. If he gets a 3 ball, even a corner 3 ball, he's a really solid player to have.

The female ref is kinda cute

Good timeout call

The Blazers commentator just said "This is Booker's 9th year." I said out loud to myself that no it's not. Welp... I looked it up and this is going to be Booker's 9th season. That is nuts.

would love to get Brogdon from the Blazers

That was absolutely wild when I heard them say that.

Man KD looks like he's sleeping out there. I'm gonna chalk it up to the preseason, but I'm hoping he's a tad quicker than what we saw last year. Not saying he's gotta be 29 year old KD, but nonetheless.

Nurk has a sweet stroke.
