Even when the Raps do a decent job containing penetration, they overhelp on harmless drives.

Both of those guys played last game and we played great D, besides both are average if not above average defenders ... Problem is JV at the defensive end.


How is it JV's fault when they're making 3's?

Lowry is a pathetic defender. Not even close to above average.

The most obvious reason this team is down to close the second was perimeter defense. Cant stay in front of their man, losing where their man even was at one point...Not much to say but where's JJ?
"I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it. That was one of them situations in which a great player made a move...and they called the call. And I was like, 'Oh, man, there is a God.'

Once again defense is our problem and our best defender (not just at 1 or even 2 positions) hasn't played a single minute. WTF Casey!

I think you are drunk... JV is not a problem ever on any side of the ball.. Terrence ross is the problem on defence.. he is not just an idout and cant stay in front of his man.. but he also loves to over help and get lost..

It's a wrap folks. This team can't stop the drive penetration, the post or anything.

Oh yeah, long contested 2s is our offence.

Anyone know how to block posters so I can't see their posts? Saciid is definitely related to Casey because his Basketball IQ is nearing 0

WTF. 5 minutes left, we were down by 1, and seemed like we'd be heading into the half with an ~ tie game. Now all of a sudden we're down 11. C'mon.

That is benching the best perimeter defender on the team.

did you give casey credit when he called timeout, and team went on 9-0 run?

reason why casey didnt' call timeout was tv timeout (charged to blazers) was coming up on the next stop in action.


another dude who doesn't know what's actually going on in the game using it to reinforce his preconceived notion that casey sucks. GED does this frequently

JV isn't guarding Lilliard and Affalo and getting blown by. Your hate for JV is getting annoying.

It's so god damn obvious Casey has a personal beef with JJ. It's actually so frustrating.
