    To have a comeback you need stops. That is just embarrassing.

    Comparison between Porter and Lillard make no sense to me. Porter was a great defender that played on championship caliber teams. Lillard has proven nothing so far.

    We need to find a defensive guru of a coach to bring in as an assistant

    We're hitting shots but our D sucks. Too bad. Could've been a fun comeback

    nobody on that team, outside of Buck Williams, was a great defender.

    Well they're definitely wretched on defense and the bench is a straight up abortion but offensively I think they've been OK most nights.

    And no, I don't think it ever looked good on paper, I pegged them at about 30 wins before the season started, as did a lot of people.

    Kanales is the current D coordinator - what do we do with him, do U put some of the blame on him?

    Hope Damian is okay. He's hobbling out there a little

    Is that four crappy games in a row for Batum now?

    [checks stats - yup:

    He's shot 15-42, 4-20 from 3 (exactly one three a game - the reason he's passing them up) and is averaging 10.25 pts, 6rbs, 3.5 ass., 2.5 to, 0.5 stls, 0.75 blks.

    Bleh.]

    It appears Canales knows nothing about defense in the NBA

    :lol: Nice edit. I agree. He's seems like a nice guy and a very hard worker, but I don't think he knows how to coach defense, let alone offense.

    @WojYahooNBA - Damian Lillard has a heart attack after bumping knees with Greg Monroe in the 4th quarter of the Blazers/Pistons game tonight.

    It's interesting, I've mentioned he is our D coordinator 2 to 3 times during the season as out defense continues to suck balls, but NO ONE said anything. I was beginning to think he was some kind of sacred cow coach who could not be criticized, nice to see a few others getting pissed off
