Hill was a nice pickup for them. He's better defensively and can still get buckets when Bledsoe is off. He was really good today.

Two very underrated pickups this past off-season and early in the season with Patty C. and Hill.

Pat is a big energy guy that can shoot it a bit from deep, get to the basket occasionally, and is a great rebounder for his position. Hill just doesn't make mistakes out there and is good defensively.

I think it's a good system they have now.

Hill has lost a step so he'd struggle guarding Kyrie all game. But he can feast on Rozier. So long as Bledsoe gives them 'something,' they're in good shape because they have pretty good depth. Something Toronto currently has nothing of.

Why did the refs hold up the game late on after Bledsoe's hard layup? Seemed like they just stopped the game for him to catch up.

Pat is like the more athletic new age version of Delly. He's a hustler and gives a really nice spark off the bench. Of course the Blazers shipped him off for peanuts so they can overpay on veteran C level talents.

Celtics looked utterly mediocre tonight....they can't win unless Kyrie has a great game, and he only does that a couple of times a month...

oh man---i think we may get to dump turner and aminu after this season especially. So many upgrades were available that were not even considered-really? You can say we hit on hood and the kanter , but ? really?

Said this for the longest, but Portland is the king of overpaying for B and C level vets. Mo Harkless was most likely going to be out of the league after the Magic. Nope...signed him to a long term deal.

Remember that 18 mill deal they gave Crabbe before realizing they messed up and dealt him to Brooklyn? Just lol.

Donkaylove · 05-03-2019, 11:36 PM

kanter is way growing on me. Blazers need some guff, not fluff. Hood/Harkless is every other player....gotta bring an intangible if you are inconsistent.

Dare Jokic to shoot wide open J's.

Sound strategy.

pgisback · 05-03-2019, 11:44 PM

Joker taking over! They need it

Donkaylove · 05-03-2019, 11:45 PM

pgisback · 05-03-2019, 11:53 PM

mindcycle · 05-03-2019, 11:56 PM

Barton has coconut oil hands

Clutch Dame!!

rman112 · 05-04-2019, 12:01 AM

Murray!!! Why did he throw it backwards?!?!

rman112 · 05-04-2019, 12:01 AM

Harris with some insane D btw. I was nervous they'd call a foul a foot off the halfcourt line.

Thought for sure he was testing the limit

rman112 · 05-04-2019, 12:03 AM

Hell of a game here!

pgisback · 05-04-2019, 12:03 AM

Jokic must be exhausted

daeve · 05-04-2019, 12:03 AM

I feel so much better with the ball in anyone but Barton's hands.

Lillard is ridiculous though. He was finally able to get past him and into the lane but the help D was there.

Pathora · 05-04-2019, 12:04 AM

These teams knew they had timeouts right? Holy crap Denver should've called one right after the rebound and Portland should've called one after the steal.

daeve · 05-04-2019, 12:04 AM

horrible set! damnit Malone. and when TO was called there was 1.8 left and Jokic just hit someone wide open only a couple steps from a good look at a 3

mindcycle · 05-04-2019, 12:04 AM

Crazy game
