POR starting lineup is the definition of uninspiring

Simons has to at least try to play some semblance of defense? Offers absolutely zero resistance on that fast break.

Some really sloppy turnovers by POR so far

I don’t think Tou is going to get that call against Jokić very often, if ever

Good pass by Scoot to Ayton there, but DA traveled

Not sure I like Clingan out there with RW3

Avdija with the 3

Deni another 3, he has definitely heated up from behind the arc as the year has gone on

Then he converts on a great fast break basket

Nice drive by Scoot there, and he was filed and (more important) he made the basket

Good drive there by Avdija, he is just so hard to stop when he drives to the basket

Good recognition by Avdija there, that is one thing that I like about him, he can push the pace on the break, but then when he realizes he doesn’t have a path or the numbers, he can stop himself, pull back out and reset

Bad take by Scoot there, just got erased by DeAndre Jordan

Bad TO by Scoot there, I think he was pushed however

Sharpe a little mini run, POR up by 9

That was a ridiculously poor 3pt attempt there by Grant there to end the 2nd quarter and then he’s looking for a foul.

Braun has some really nice buckets tonight, more useful than I thought he was

Just waiting for Jokić to take over the game

Sometimes Simons tries to emulate Dame a little too much, you’re not Dame, you never will be

Much better from Shaedon tonight, even if the results aren’t paying off, more drives/2pt shots, less jacking up 3pt shots

Ugly 3Q from DEN there, POR up by 17

One of my biggest pet peeves.
We're up by 3 points, a little over 2 minutes left in the game, we have possession.
Simons dribbles it meaninglessly for 10 seconds, 4 feet outside the three point line. Why not run a play???

Instead he drives at 7 seconds on the shot clock, slings it to Sharpe with less than 2 seconds who shoots a difficult contested shot. Clang.
Denver quickly scores a 3 and the game is tied.

Sharpe taking it to another level, making clutch shots and making it look effortless. Did he not get the tanking memo?

DEN 8pt run to start the 4Q

POR 0-6 to start 4Q

Sharpe draws a foul, he has been pretty invisible tonight , again

Was that a pass by DA to Camara ? Can’t say I’ve seen DA execute, too many of those

Avdija has been one of the best players tonight, yet with 4 minutes left he’s still sitting on the bench. What a joke.

Sharpe having one of those nights when he is “on “

DEN ties it up with 1:30 left, Simons attempts to go 1v1, I swear I’ve seen this before. Simons gets totally stuffed, DEN scores on a fast break now they are up by 2

Still no Avdija

Colabro is so annoying, so sick of the “cobra “ comment every time Sharpe hits a shot. He has said it so much it’s getting annoying

Another meaningless win, yay

Nice shot by ant even if it cost us a valuable loss in the tank standings

What do you think the word "bidding" means?
