    But just when I thought it wasn't possible, the Blazers are more boring then they were last season.

    Nate McMillan basketball is a nightmare for TNT/ESPN ratings.

    So predictable. Every possession is very late in the shotblock and most likely a jumpshot.

    NO easy buckets. It's like watching the Spurs but worse because it's your team. :sigh:

    He says we have no clue though, so he must be right.

    I hate his offense.

    1) Do you have an audio/video clip of him saying fans have no clue?

    2) Some fans don't have a clue

    Do you have a link? I'd love to hear the context.

    You can find it on Oregonlive, but it's plain and simple.

    This, from a Raptors' fan: http://www.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=21060240#p21060240

    Ignore the poor spelling of Nate's name.

    Quick asked him if he thought the fans had any clue about basketball, and he responded, "No."

    Sounds likely.

    The Nate haters / Oden lovers are going to have a tough time responding to that post.

    I can safely say this guy is totally off his rocker. Nate is a good coach and Oden should have been in the game.

    Quick said it was a direct quote. Pretty simple.

    I've listened to it, you haven't.

    Since you've listened to it, could you at least tell me what the question was and what his response was?

    If it's simple, I'm sure you remember.

    I don't want to listen to an entire podcast for a 5 second quote that you remember. I wish you would just tell me.

    I find it sad that NBA fans 3,000 miles away can recognize Nate's ineptitude, but Blazer fans who follow the team so closely can't.

    And Olympic coaches, all-stars, his players, former teammates, and NBA analysts can't notice it either.

    Only the message board fans can see the truth! lol
