    I don't know if anyone noticed, but in game 3 4th quarter, Daniels and Dwight went up to get an uncontested rebound and it went out of bounds due to bad communication. Dwight gave Daniels the 'I'm gonna kill u rook' stare and both walked away.

    Today, same thing happened but to the Trail Blazers in the 4th quarter too. LMA got the rebound and Lopez fked up and it went out of bounds. What did they do? high fived and hugged each other while saying 'it's ok'.

    We gotta trust our teammates no matter what and blaming each other is not gonna bring us anywhere, except for more pressure and friction.

    cool story bro.

    One team knows how to close games. One team doesn't. Wanna guess who's who?

    Rockets blow huge leads, they come back from them.

    They don't have the human turnover and miss layup maker Jeremy Lin

    I know the plays you're talking about. They'll have to grow as a team. It takes time.

    The Blazers are more mentally poised and positive about their game situations not only as a team, but also as individual players. Lillard, Batum and LMA are very even keeled. Wes is a bit emotional, but with the other three being calm and cool it works out. As a core group, they have the natural personalities to play under control, which is only strengthened by their coaching staff which draws up specific offensive sets, to further have them play controlled and defined. It's a positive self fulfilling prophecy of trust.

    Did you really expect Aldridge to give Lopez that 'I'm gonna kill u rook' stare. Lopez would have b**** slapped him. Plus LMA knows Lopez has his back.

    Dwight don't know siit about the rook. It was a boneheaded play by Daniels at the most inopportune time. He got the look cause he earned it.

    well it was boneheaded by Lopez too. Could've lost them the game but they stayed positive instead of blaming each other.

    PG and PF....their stars show up consistently and make big shots. Oh, and their coach doesn't suck balls.

    Dwight seems to have a bad attitude at times. In game 2 he was calling for the ball Lin couldn't get it to him and he got super pissed and yelled at him gave him a dirty look too. Like dam I kno it's Lin but c'mon they're still your teammates
