Simons barely in the game and he is working on the defensive end.

Simons is not shy, but we knew that.

Mario looking pretty good so far Blazers finding him for wide open dunks.

He's made some nifty passes too. He has also handled the ball through some pressure. It wasn't pretty but he didn't lose it.

Beasley looks good. Barton better find a good spot on the bench.

Whiteside sure doesn't look comfortable in the pick 'n roll.

I like what I see from CJ really trying to move the ball first instead of looking to get his own.

Murray thought he was going to throw that down but he ran into some tall timber.

Holy **** we are winning against Denver in a game where the Blazers are 3/14 from 3 point land. I realize Jokic isn't playing in this game but Denver is still pretty good even without him.

So far, Collins is making NO's decision to let Aminu go look like a good one.

Well this is Collins 3rd year if he is going to break out and become a great player this might be the one. I love the idea of making him a starter though give him all the minutes he can handle let's see what he can do.

Maybe it's just me, but I thought Whiteside played further above the rim. He looks like first half Nurk of last season with eye level shots at the rim.

I didn't see the Blazers doing as much pick 'n roll as they do with Nurkic. So, maybe that's an adjustment or maybe it's just because we have only seen 1 half of basketball.
