    God I fogot how much I hate watching the non-Nurk version of the Blazers this year.

    At least Vonleh has looked OK.

    There is still no reason we shouldn't have an extra body at center. Do we need a hardship of something?

    eh...not sure what the point would be. I'm sure they'd be able to. But we're better of playing small ball with our own guys I think. I also hope Leonard is solidifying his suckiness to the organization.

    Damian Lillard has scored at least 27 points in all four meetings with Phoenix this season (34.7 ppg in previous 3).

    Didn't people say the same thing last year when we went to the second round? How'd that work out?

    They don't want to go into luxury tax. Literally the only explanation.

    If PA and Olshey wanted the team to tank they should have assembled a shittier team. It's not on the players and coach to tank. Any player or coach that agree to throw games are cancer.

    I was being sarcastic, since I signed it "sincerely, Kingspeed".

    Since you know, he says shit like that all the time.

    CJ McCollum (5 3-pointers tonight) has tied Clyde Drexler for eighth on Portland’s all-time list for 3-pointers made (464).
