There's no consistancy with how charging vs blocking is called in the nba. It drives me crazy.

GTJ had a nice take from outside the 3 point line against a set defense and getting into the paint for a layup/close floater. He missed it but he broke down a defense for a decent shot. That's nice to see.

Can someone explain to me why Nurk seems to try to establish himself as a 3 point shooter now?

He has to be one of the worst 3 point shooters on the court, I have no problem with him taking one with 2 or less seconds on the shot clock but he seems to be trying them far more often than that.

Oh man seeing a quick pass to a cutting DJ Jr. for an easy dunk is a thing of beauty, imagine if we actually ran the offense more like that.

Edit: This team is 50% from the FT line, umm what?

Nurkic looks like a basketball player again. That's nice. Better ball movement tonight too.

Is hood injured?

If we lose this game, the FT line will be a big part of why. There is no **** excuse for this team to be this inept at the FT line.

Chicago's playing pretty well. I expected a rather comfortable Blazer win, especially after the first quarter, but I guess I was too optimistic for a change.

Meh, they are feasting on wide open 3's all night and then easy looks at the basket in the paint. That is a recipe for disaster for some **** reason our Defense actually got worse from last season.
