I was talking to a guy at work about this game tonight and warned him this is a classic trap game; he thought Lillards AS starter snub and rivalry with WB would be enough motivation to force a win.

Offense looks like trash when Simons is in any role in which he has to make plays for others.

I was talking to my nephew and also suggested it was a trap game. Beal is a great scorer and that makes this game dangerous.
On Simons I don't think the problem that quarter was him as it looked like the Blazers got a lot of good shots but just missed them. Even Dame missed shots he normally makes. The Blazers will win if they make their normal shots and play defense like they did in the first quarter.

Hopefully they can get their minds right at halftime

Hopefully they get the PHX game. If they do that thing where they put out a lot of effort and lose then that DEN game may be pretty hard on the 2nd night of a traveling b2b and in Denver.

Great first quarter, decent third quarter, complete crap in the 2nd quarter, and horrible finish in the 4th quarter. Beal and Westbrook shot 27-44. Kanter was the only Blazer to shoot well. 7 missed free throws didnt help either. Just not much to like about this game. Can Little get Hood's minutes please! The bench shot 5-25 tonight. Doesnt get much worse than that. And lastly, how was that Lillard and Beal on the floor in the last minute not a foul?

Portland goes up 96-93 with 8 1/2 minutes to go, but only scores 2 points during the next 4 minutes. That was the game. Lopez killed the Blazers.

The Blazers looked great in quarters 1 and 3 and trash in 2 and 4. I have no clue why this team struggles to score for long stretches of the game they can put up a 40+ point quarter then follow it up with a 12 point quarter.

This team really needs to work on their offense, there is no reason why they should be able to score so well in one quarter but not in another. Hopefully this game serves as a wake up call, that they might need to make some adjustments.

They scored 80 points in the 1st and 3rd quarter combined, and a embarrassing 31 points over the 2nd and 4th quarter. Again no reason why this team should struggle so much for long stretches, Stotts and Lillard need to get this **** worked out.

I’d hate to make it seem so easy as to why it’s like this but... dame plays 24 minutes between quarters 1 and 3. I don’t think it’s just a coincidence unfortunately. This will most definitely improve once McCollum comes back but it does show that a solid backup pg or at least another consistent playmaker would be essential if we were to trade cj or Trent

Games like this happen. Wizards are playing some surprisingly decent ball. Respect to Beal not bailing on the team, I’ve always liked his game. Hopefully blazers can play better and get that next game. Good teams avoid losing streaks
