GLB of the game Emily van Camp

Really wanna see Portland get this one tonight. Try to avoid losing streaks is what good teams do. I wanna see them out 4 good quarters together instead of this 2 great and 2 horrendous ones like they’ve been doing. Phoenix is a good team so hopefully the guys come out and play a good all around game

Very difficult,as once again the Blazers are comparative undersized and skinny. Suns will mop up on the rim and in the lane.

Seems like it would be better to sit Lillard and hope for the best in tomorrow's game.

This was a game we severely missed nurk with aytons athleticism and size inside. Also missing that secondary scorer. But Phoenix is a very good team, lots of good players all over the roster. I think a healthy Portland is similar top to bottom when healthy, tonight though they just were a much better team. I think we need to find more minutes for little, gives us a bouncy physical big body on the wing, but I don’t see that happening

Portland has played lots of these types of games in Phoenix for the last 40 years since I started watching
Blazers games.

I'm glad Lillard didn't play in the 4th and we got to see some of the reserves. Little looks promising.

Denver is 4-6 in their last 10 but it would be surprising if they are an easy win tomorrow. Lakers after that. Would be nice to at least win one of those.

Rough game, but at least this gave more rest for Lillard when they go to Denver. That game will be rough no matter what Denver at home is already tough but on a road B2B it's even harder.

Denver will also be more rested since their last game was Feb 21st in Atlanta.

We are small and skinny, especially without Nurk, Collins, and Giles. Nuggets might looking at their own guys and saying where's the beef, with Millsap and Green out. Nuggets are still bigger than us, but it helps some of their bigs are banged up. Harris is out too.

At this point other than seniority is there any argument to playing Hood over Little?

He is the same Hood everyone was in love with last year. The difference is he doesn't have a steady role perfectly suited for his skills.

Play Little!!!
