Kings vs Blazers (Pre-season Game 2)

Btw, this kind of offense is not going to get us anywhere near the playoffs. Have you seen anyone get an open shot created through offensive execution in this entire half?
Nope. First it was Tryeke playing 1-on-1 to get us the points. Then it Thornton knocking down threes. No team ball here in the second.
 
The one thing I am noticing (that I am disgusted with once again) is that:

If Keith Smart puts in a bench player and likes what he is doing, he will continue to play him. Whats the point of being a starter then?

Exactly. Portland, although behind, has gotten a lot more wide open shots by setting good screens. Batum wide open in the corner multiple times.
