    Howard already done his job. Harden need to bring it in the 3rd and take it home in the 4th. Howard alone is not going to work. Same for Portland - LMA alone isn't going to work for them. We need to continue to contain Lillard and we need better 3pt defense.

    If we lose the series I hope we get embarrassed. We need Moreyball to get exposed ASAP so we don't waste Dwight on this offensive system.

    So little room for errors and turnovers as it is...then we have to contend with that late in the 4th. It's a lot to overcome because, fact is, Rockets continue to make mistakes and turn the ball over.

    Not entirely true. No other Blazer is dominating, but they are getting contributions from other players and their bench has badly outplayed ours. Harden, Parsons, and Lin have to step up in the 2nd half. Dwight can't do this for an entire game. He was starting to tire out at the end of the 1st half already.

    I bet you anything LMA doesn't shoot 75% for the game. He is 9-12 from the field.

    we can't guard him 1-1. we can guard team as a team. except mchale doesn't believe in double teaming. why? because they have shooters? you rotate.

    For now I'd rather have Portland take the three instead of a guaranteed LMA jumper, it's not like they are going to make it in every shot.

    He'll shoot over 50%, which is good enough.

    A tie at half time with disfavorable first half calls against a good time is NOT indicative of a horrible game plan.

    if the mchale allows lin to run the offense, i truly believe that only this way, everyone will be involved and the game will flow better.
