    It's amazing to me that this could easily have been a 3-1 Blazers lead if things had gone a little differently

    CJ is pretty humble. He's learning, he'll get better.

    Yeah. I wasted too much time I could've been doing something else productive.

    Hello vino.

    Honestly I think this is the less mad I've been about a loss all season

    Game 2 was one of the most frustrating

    Remind me again - how many of those games did the Blazers actually win?

    The blow it up and Lillard sucks posts are obviously too much but that loss was devastating and I see nothing wrong with being a little depressed about it. On to the next one. Go Blazers!

    dude, the average age of this team is like 24. Their best players have played 3 and 4 years.

    Maybe you should step away from the message board for a bit, because you seem to have lost touch with reality.

    Jeez, do you need to bring up his shooting percentage every frickin time he has a bad night. In case you didn't notice, Thompson is a damned good defender on a team of damned good defenders. Until the Blazers add a consistent interior player, the guards are going to have to carry the load.

    Exactly. Sometimes a team just isn't quite ready yet to get over that hump. We are waaaaaaay ahead of schedule though. I am proud of this team

    But, yeah, Dame and CJ are assholes. Can't shoot. We should blow it all up and blow Curry's knees. And why am I even a fan?

    Thats the route you're going? Bitching about losses against a team that lost 9 TOTAL games this year?

    You do realize that the Blazers are the only team to beat the Warriors twice this year, right?

    Yeah well guess what, he's their best player and the MVP, why should we be able to play them without him ?
    Where do you think the Blazers end the season without Lillard ?

    Even in a loss, this playoff game ranks with the Roy game 4 against Dallas to me. I feel the hurt but I also feel... Hopeful, and optimistic for the future.

    I'm as torn apart as the rest of you, but lets not hope for injury. I know you don't truly mean it, emotions run high... Let's keep our good karma train rolling through next year as we look to improve our roster. Don't forget this series is and always has been nothing more than icing on the cake.

    So? He should only score 30+ when we're going to win? What's your point? He's not trying hard enough?

    You were probably one of those guys who said we'd be lucky to win 20 games this season....
