precious was big and starters stepped up 2nd half but really like what the bench has given the raps as a whole the last three games now. shifted momentum against the kings and then against both the warriors and grizzlies didn’t let the team break when the team was bent. – 10:32 PM

Blazers go on a 14-2 run to take a 26-24 lead late-ish in the first quarter. They’re still giving themselves double-digit holes to contend with, but they’re getting quicker at digging out. – 10:23 PM

Davis had yet to miss a game this season, though he did leave the Portland game after 7 minutes (stomach illness).
Vogel said that they will play some zone, and that both centers (DJ, DH) will be needed. LeBron is also capable of “doing all of it” on defense. – 5:39 PM
