Portland is legit. Beat Pacers and Thunder on a back to back, I'm very impressed tbh. I predict a WCF appearance
Portland in general has been running great out of bounds plays. Super impressed by everything that team is doing. There was so much LMA trade drama before the season. Winning cures everything.
What really irked me was Bonehead pulling Lamb for Perkins late as if Lamb wasn't doing enough. The problem was the iso play calls that completely froze Lamb out of the offense with about 6 mins left. On the other hand, Stotts runs a play for Batum that nets a wide open 3. Then watching Coach B complain about the no-call on WB made me smh even more. HE is the problem, not the refs.
Lamarcus Aldridge was on fire today. Wow. And Batum with a dagger 3 at the end. This Blazers team is for real.

Jason Kidd level- spill drink to ice the FT shooter and draw up a game plan Coach Pop level- cause fire in stadium and get an extra day for your aging stars to rest
the entire game was iso ball except for when the 2nd unit is in (and even then, RJ does a lot of iso) baffling. i literally wish i could fast forward through their games and just watch the 2nd unit out hustle the opposition, because the starting unit is just awful to watch most nights. WB used to be good enough for the offense, but he is not back yet (if ever) to consistently carry that poor offense and the even worse starters.
