Damn I don’t know about this one, Margot Robbie looks like all my exes. We could be in trouble.

I'm headed to Florida, about an hour or so north of Miami. Gonna see if tickets are available on the 7th. How fun would that be!

Simons looking absolutely horrendous. He needs to make quicker and better decisions with the ball right now. He's being blitzed which I understand can be tough... but he's taking waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too long to react to the defense.

The turnovers... that's this team's primary issue right now.. just plain lazy and unacceptable passing. It will likely clean up over time... but it's just infuriating in the immediate.

Didn't look that bad.. the extended rest may get him nearly back. We'll see.

It's early... and I hope Simons hits his stride.. but outside of that moment in the 3rd quarter against Denver... and the end of the game against he Suns he's been just awful on offense. I can take other parts of his game still needing work, but he's absolutely got to be better on offense with that contract he just got.

Horrific rebounding tonight, and horrific passing doomed the team. But the only thing that matters is whether Lillard can come back soon.

I think we need to consider starting sharpe at the 2. Anf could play more minutes while sharpe would play maybe 18-20 and give our starting lineup a more ideal fit next to Dame

The effort seemed lacking last night and Miami is too good of a team to play without full effort.

Miami kinda out-Blazered the Blazers. Hopefully Limplard is only a thing for a game or two…

so...after seeing them on the same floor, who would you rather have, Ant or Herro? A little surprising that Herro is almost a year younger than Ant

Herro is better and I'd rather have him. But not at 30M/year. Don't like Ant at 20M/year, but that's a big difference in salary. Herro would be a much better fit next to Dame though
