Little is nice! He's not exactly just filler in a trade... He's got game.

What will help is that with Covington and Jones on the team he has time to develop and doesn't have the pressure to produce every game

The difference between a PG & SG.... Simply put..... A PG would prefer to make an amazing pass and set up his teammates first, while still scoring as much as is needed - A SG is always looking score first, and then score again.

Someone needs to shut the Dame / MVP talk down right now!!! He responds poorly to that type of chatter IMO. Dame... as the PG, try to focus more on making the teammates around you better by setting guys up. You will still get 25+ per night without trying nearly as hard. The result will be easier buckets, fresher legs, more wins, better moral and maybe a legit run at a title... the awards and accolades will then come naturally and be plentiful, even MVP.

Dame MUST be more like a Steve Nash, and shy away from a Harden/Roy style of play. Our team is really good when he does.

OKC is plucky, too. You love to see players like Dort and Roby putting in the hustle. Hopefully Portland can maintain their lead.

yeah it would have been nice if they didnt blow the 24 point lead, but if they can still get a comfortable win that would be great.

We are not worthy, Dame! Holy moly.

ESPN's win probability gave the Blazers a 99.3% chance of a win up 82-58, then it swung to OKC having an 84.4% chance to win once they went up 5. Crazy swings.

Have to say I am a bit "glad" for the injuries' as the young guys have really stepped up like ANT and Little and of course GTJ becoming better and better and we are winning without CJ/NURK/Collins and Hood still so so, Roco and Jones Jr playing well and gelling with team, fun to watch, moreso for me then at anytime in past couple years

No lead for either team is safe with the Blazers.

Little looks really good. This game and his 30pt outing are better than any games DJJ has put together so far this year.

Really like Dort and Roby for OKC. Those are playoff caliber role players.

It's no mistake the team is playing better with a consistent lineup of healthy players who have
settled in defined roles. It will be interesting to see what happens when the injured players
begin to return for the young players like GTJ, Simons along with Kanter have played well in
their absence.

5 straight wins without Nurkić and CJ. Chill.
