Really hope Sharpe shines in this one. Win or lose another 20pt high efficiency game would do wonders for this roster.
From Portland to Reno to Vegas to LA to SLC and on to HotLanta. Winning at life. Too Blessed to be Stressed

Any word whether Hart will play? Has there been any word on Payton lately?

Incredible half by Ant and incredibly bad half by the refs, don't usually bitch about refs but they were awful

Grant with another 0 rebound game. That's absurd.

It's like he doesn't WANT to rebound.

Great win by Portland. I love that Ant's huge game paid off with a win.

Yep, they fought hard and played way too many minutes but got the W with a very depleted roster, true grit

Nice win. I'm so used to them blowing it late,I didn't think it was gonna happen until the buzzer went off. Really needed this one, can't wait to see how Dame bounces back tomorrow.

Why won't Gary Payton play? This is super suspect to miss this many games when he should've been ready to play a month ago.

Anfernee actually looking like that $100 million was well spent, this is just one game but he did also have that quarter a while back where he absolutely dominated.

Consistency is his biggest issue by far, but he is still young in NBA terms and until last season wasn't seeing the court or touching the ball as much as he is now. I still think he has the potential to be far better than CJ ever was, maybe not as good as prime Dame but I could easily see a better CJ.

Clearly the injury had setbacks. There doesn't need to be a conspiracy.

GP seems like the type of player that wants to be out there, I doubt he is trying to milk this thing to get paid not to play. In fact his Father was a big time competitor that loved to play.

I have a feeling he might feel a bit bad he hasn't played yet, he has never made anywhere near this current contract throughout his career.

Glad to see a win again. Just haven't seem enough of them in the past few weeks. Loving what I'm seeing from Grant offensively and defensively. Wish he could grab some rebounds, but maybe they wouldn't need him to with a healthy roster. Nice half by Simons. Too bad he was so quiet in the second half. GB3 tried to make me like him tonight.
