I bet Fournier is getting worried.

Portland look like they give about the same level of s**t that we have most of the season.

Until Jeff Green pulls out his Vogel sex tape stash. :lol:

But I really like what I see from him so far.

Elf is a bad matchup for Lillard for whatever reason. He just struggles against Elf.

I'm impressed by Ross so far. Just seems to make the right plays and his athleticism makes it look smooth and effortless. Our team looks better with the spacing too.

Yeah I'm thinking the same thing. Very good opportunity for Ross to break out on a young team. I despise Casey, he'd just have Ross park in the corners waiting to catch and shoot. Seeing lots of nice passes from Ross. He's really making the most use of his athleticism. Vogel's a good coach so he'll get the most out of Ross.

Yep. He showed flashes of this in Toronto, with his good dump off passes to JV, but since he was rarely used that way offensively we'd only see it once every few games, now we've already seen him spoon feed Vucevic some easy looks inside like 4 or 5 times this game

Nice 3 by Vooch but those possessions by EF need to stop.

Thx. Saw a lot of Ross praises but the box score doesn't look good. Would be nice if some posters could be as forgiving when it comes to our young players lol.

I've always said out of those 3 wings drafted high in that 2015 draft (Hezonja/Stanley Johnson/Winslow) that Hezonja still had the most upside. Scott Skiles was the worst possible coach for his rookie season.


Mario wasn't bad last season. Vogel has been the worst possible coach for him

The Magic should have had a lineup like this to start the season.

Aaron Gordon at SF killed this team offensively and it trickled down to the defense.

Tonight has been nice.

Ross is showing pretty good vision. Has had some really nice passes to Vuc that leads to a foul.

C.J outworking us. Boxing out AG and getting buckets. No wonder Portland doesn't want to trade him.
