Mavs not playing well besides KP. Jackson is a scrub

Dallas crumbling. At least the Grizzlies lost.

Dallas is the bigger game. Grizz are going to beat the Bucks backups unfortunately.

Nurkic and McCollum playing horrible. Don't think Lillard can pull off another miracle all alone.

Maybe? I mean, the Nets are 5-2 in the bubble. No one saw that coming either. Memphis might just lose to avoid getting embarrassed more.

Anything can happen but Portland is starting to feel like us. A team that just isn't going to lose. Too desperate.

Nurk, McCollum, Trent, and Hezonja all playing bad yet they lead by 8. Lillard is too good to lose..why cant they double him on every play and allow others to beat them?

Dallas D is garbage in general. Luka looks off. Every pass he makes I'm bracing for a turnover.

Portland just wants this one more.

The Celtics did their job.

Seriously, I can not imagine the Grizzlies winning to the Bucks. They will rest their starting five, but are super deep.

Exactly what I was going to say. Why not just double team Lillard every play and make someone else beat them.

A wide open 3 by any other Blazer is better than Lillard going 1 on 1.

Rick Carlisle used to be an excellent coach and imo the most underrated. But he’s definitely regressed.

I don't think its Carlisle, just doesn't look like the players out there are mailing it in on defense

If you let one person beat you, it’s on the defense imo. Lillard should get trapped every time he steps past half court and forced to give up the ball.

Throw a triple team on him.

They're not even guarding lillard

Nobody wants to guard lillard? FINEEEEEEE! Let me on the court coach I'll dee him up better then Scottie ever did.

Nobody on the Blazers has double digits in scoring except Lillard....
