Seeing Rondo play reminds me that the Blazers haven't had a PG that can setup other players since Miller.

CJ McCollum just doesn't work in this series. He needs to get a lot less minutes too.


Turner is the leading scorer for the Blazers and has played solidly (apart from those 3 TOs). It's been one half, lets simmer down and see what happens before we start with blame game...


Turner is having the worst game of anyone I've seen play today and I've watched all four games. He's a giant liability on both ends. It would take the homerest of the homers to think he has any chance of turning things around. If Turner continues to play heavy minutes this will be a quick series. Portland simply can't afford such a drag on both ends of the floor

When ET drives to the basket drawing 2 defenders there should be someone open to pass to.

I mean really despite the incredibly poor shooting by CJ+Damian this is only a 10 point game.

We know this team has come back from MUCH Worse deficits than this. It's not like they are down 35 or something...

Well the script wasn't that CJ+Lillard would have less total points than Turner by himself roughly half-way through the 3rd.
