    The implication is that the wolves are beating teams right now, playing really good ball. Why is losing to the Wolves an important indictment on us but not the Warriors?

    This is the game where you miss having Meyers imho.

    It's assuming you think a snort at someone is rude. When it's towards someone who you don't know as placing it on being a rude SON, then it becomes personal.

    Do I REALLY need to explain to you why your post was rude? Really?

    Hey, we don't give CJ criticizm on this forum. It's blame Lillard or blame Stotts.
    But you DO NOT blame CJ on these forums. The Lillard haters will get you...

    This "playoff team" should be a "lottery team." Enjoy the 4 playoff games, because the price we pay to watch those losses is one development year for our next 1st-round pick.

    I'm all for different opinions and criticizing. Saying lillards shot selection is bad, okay cool. But when tunchi is constantly on here blatantly talking crazy shit almost like he's trying to get a rise out of people, it's not fun. Dudes like him shouldn't be on this forum. Every time I see a tunchi post I cringe and it legitimately pisses me off. The immature child trying to poke and poke. Well good job buddy, you did it. There's a difference between constructive criticism and whatever the fuck tunchi is doing, call it hating or whatever. Dude has nothing good to say when Blazers perform well, he's only talking when we play terrible or when Damian is playing bad. Shits annoying. And yeah, you can point me towards the mute button but if I got a mute somebody on this forum, what does that say about it? I'm just here as a fan to talk Blazers, why do I gotta mute somebody? It's reached a level of ridiculousness. Long ago actually but moda won't do anything about it for whatever reason

    I don't think that statement can ever really be true, because you can never count on Meyers. When he does go off or play like his head isn't completely wedged up his ass, it's completely random. And he often only plays well for about 3 minutes before going back to normal for long stretches.

    Taking a quick two with less than 24 seconds left means you will HAVE to foul. That then means you get the ball back and in all likelihood still have to shoot a three, only with less time now. It's never a smart move.

    He's an obvious troll. Best thing to do is not feed him so he'll run along and try somewhere else. I'm kind of curious where the threshold is for being an obvious troll before you get banned, but that's about all his posts do for me.

    True but I think he is our best player to stick on low post players like KAT/Cousins

    It says the forum has a lot of folks and some of them are more annoying than others. Not everyone gets along for various reasons. The mute button is your friend. I'm sure there are dozens of folks ignoring me but that's life.

    Apology accepted, thank you. I'm sorry for the insult too.

    I'm out. Gotta go take out my anger on someone on YouTube, then go catch up on GOT. Hopefully, someone gets cleaved in half; that will make my day.

    That is so incorrect. How often do you see someone miss a freethrow and then the other team comes back to hit a contested shot and win? NEVER. Every team does it yet it NEVER works. The foul + pray strategy is a loser. This is basketball 201. Sorry you think this is high school still. These are the top 500 players on the planet.
