We need to trade Bledsoe for a good defensive 2 guard to play next to Booker and leave him to run the point.

Turnover machine.


Yeah, that's his biggest problem. I was going to mention maybe he could be like Harden but thought it might be premature. However, Harden turns it over a ton too...often has 7 or 8 so maybe that comp for the future isn't so far off with rose colored glasses.

Refs are definitely helping the Blazers keep the momentum. Oh and the Blazers are doing a solid job of doubling Booker.

Defensive breakdowns kills us, someone just gets completely lost and gives up a wide open shot

still way better than what we were a week ago

did Triano just bench Chriss for something? or was it a defensive sub to end the half

The thing with Harden is he can get his shot, anywhere, anytime, all the time. You live with those turnovers when your player is unguardable. He is also usually the only ball handler they had on the floor, unless you count the occasional times Beverly brought it up. Same with Russ, they rely solely on 1 guy to do everything. Booker isnt that guy yet, dont think he ever will be. Harden and Russ are unguardable, one because of his handle, the other because of his athletic ability. I'd be happy if Booker ended up like Brandon Roy, can do it all, on and off the ball, not a PG, but can make the right pass, thats all we need from him.

Either call it both times or don't call it at all. Consistency makes the best referee

Very efficient shooting, keeps getting trapped and double teamed though so hasn't had a chance to get into his game. Teams have been just killing booker by planning for him all season long. He will be a much better player because of this.

He left Harkless open for 3.
