    I'm sorry but Damian Lillard is the most overrated player in the NBA today. Look, he kicked our ass last year and I give him full credit for that, but other than that series, I have never been that impressed with him. He's a one way player who has no impact on the game other than scoring. People don't talk about it, but his defense is 2013-14 Harden bad.

    The only thing that trips me out is how he has a green light to jack up random 3's from a mile out. He's good for a few of them every game and they are always at the weirdest times.

    Mike Conley's injuries are more substantial than 90 percent of the players not playing for the blazers.

    if the blazers don't want to suit up it's on them

    Well Wes is a huge injury for them, he was their 3rd if not 2nd best player with how Dame is playing. Him and Lillard were like the splash bros lite with how they could spread the floor.

    Blazers just don't match up well with the Grizzlies. I knew they got swept in the regular season, but after finally watching them play, it's just horrible.

    Again, it's hard to feel sorry for them. They were virtually injury-free a year ago and I can't really sympathize with any team's injury woes this season given what the Rockets have suffered through.

    I do feel bad for that franchise after what happened to Oden and Roy. But not this Blazers squad.

    The rockets don't play defense and if you let the trailblazers catch a rhythm it'll be bad news.

    Wes Matthews is their 2nd best player and it's not even close.

    Aldridge was being guarded by an overmatched PF.
