Dame took the team on his back big time. He was absolutely incredible.

How was that 2nd foul even a foul on him? He's standing there and Embiid drives into him. He disnt move in front if him, he was already STANDING THERE!!!

A rough win. The guys are tired and playing against fresh legs and people you don't necessarily scout for is obviously taking effect. this would have been a horrendous loss.

But it was a win. We'll take the win. All we need to do is keep trying to move towards the playoffs.

Anyone realize how close the Blazers were to being 6-0? 4 point loss to the Celtics and 5 point loss to the Clippers. 9 points is all that separates the Blazers from comfortably sitting in 8th place.

Every once in a while Lillard really brings me back to those fun early aughts 76ers teams with Iverson literally willing them to victories. I've wanted the Blazers to have an Eric Snow level defender for...well, probably since Greg Anthony. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago.

I kind of disagree. Both the Clippers and Sixers were pretty short-handed, so losing to one and requiring a monster effort from Lillard to win a close game is a bad sign.

Maybe so, but that doesn't change what I said. They'd still be 6-0 and comfortably sitting in 8th place.

Sorry, you are not a Dip$hit. I was your mother's milkman back in the day. You are actually a NumbNut.
