    Im not convinced we do with him in, but for fucks sake if youre gonna let him play the game let him finish. There is no point not to. you play to win the fucking game, especially in playoffs.

    When he has Nurk in the game, I wish he could play ball instead of chucking up shots from Tualatin.

    With Nurkic on the floor, we are a better team.

    These guys must own us mentally. How can we keep blowing double digit leads against them (going back to last year's playoffs)? Seems strange.

    This has been like the worst of both worlds. We don't get a lottery pick, and we don't really get to see how we fare against GS at full strength. We'd have had a decent chance to win game 1 and 3 with a healthy Nurkic. But of course, GS is simply at another level. Our bozo supporting cast just isn't good enough.

    I agree, but we do something right against them, we just can't close.

    Actually I think the reason Meyers is not as good as he should be is the same reason the Blazers are not nearly as good as they should be.

    I know Crabbe was balls bad tonight, but I'd rather see another shooter (if inconsistent at best) start for us in game 4 than Turner. Let Turner control the bench unit and see if Dame and CJ can kick it out to Crabbe for some open jumpers and see if he makes it. Somethings gotta change. I mean, we still won't win regardless, but may as well try it out. I can't stomach seeing Dame and CJ play with a bunch of players who shoot bricks on wide open shots.

    ...nearly more turnovers than assists is recipe for disaster right there -- not to mention all of this ISO basketball -- it never worked when Roy tried it in the playoffs and it will never work with Lillard/McCollum/et al. :sigh:

    We outrebounded them by 10. Problem was our turnovers especially the FOUR by McCollum. He was a mess with the ball in the 4th quarter.
