Denver only favored by 1.5 points despite the Blazers being on a back-to-back and Lillard and Nurkić being doubtful. Easy money or a trap?

I’d take denver on the over in a bet but i don’t think it’s impossible for us to win this. I think we are motivated to win a game after really tough luck lately

So why did DJJ lose his minutes? He barely plays now

Terry Stotts is an offensive minded coach. Perhaps Portland knows he's opting out and decided to
sit him out and develop Little.

Little is a lot cheaper than DJJ. Could be looking for places to save money.

chuck shots and don’t rebound. What an awfully boring brand of basketball

Brutal stretch, we are 2-7 in the last 9, how are we possibly gonna make the playoffs if we can’t win the close games? seems like we either play close or get blown out if we blow the close games at this rate we may finish the year with 3 wins

Seemed like Nurkic might not have been the best option to end the game, he was basically getting scored on, out rebounded, or fouling. Maybe Kanter would have at least rebounded better.
