    Don't fire him directly. Give his pink slip to the valet attendant, and pay him $1000 to leave it in NO's passenger seat.

    Best part is the middle person in the 3 red jerseys in the crowd picking his nose.

    Well the game was lost in the 1st QT we play nearly even the last 3 QT. Dame Aminu Vonleh all came to play. Olshey need hard look at this roster and Stotts needs to put his input in about this team.

    Our President never sexually assaulted anyone. You fail.

    So now it's stream or nothing, huh? This was one of the only reasons why I even had an antennae anyways. Might as well throw it out.

    He's just being a troll. Some people hate the President so much that they just can't help but bring their immature rantings into a basketball thread. Like a fucking child.

    No.

    I didn't like gay people as a teen. Granted my only exposure was at the washington county fair.
    By 14 year old boy, who the girl I was dating brought along because she was his babysitter.
    The whole time he kept putting his hands on my shoulders, and trying to get me to give him a piggyback ride.
    I told him to stop, yet he continued. Eventually ended up tossing him off my back and onto his ass. He took off crying.
    Frankly I found it completely inappropriate considering it was the first time I met him. The only thing I knew about him other than his name, is that he identified as gay.
    However due to this boy, I thought all gay males were that way until I had a flaming-gay male as a co-worker.

    I don't think I should be held accountable for my thoughts as a teen/young adult/adult. Due to the exposure I had at 17.
    Neither should Aminu imo.

    No shame in losing to the best team in the NBA. No shame in getting swept by the best team in the NBA, when you barely scraped into the eighth seed, after being tenth or lower most of the season; and the only reason you even made it to the playoffs is out injured.

    They had 4 All-Stars. We had zero. The outcome of the game wasn't surprising at all.

    Your career comes into play because you brag about it a little too much when you're in the middle of flame wars with other posters. It is a great job and you're very good at it, but you've made sure people know.

    So being realistic is predicting what every other idiot expert predicts? You're still using the most basic of narratives to defend the "23 wins" prediction, which was the same narrative that was used by the experts that don't even know where Portland is.

    well thanks for another fun season guys. it was more or less a letdown year after what we accomplished last year, but I will always cheer for the Blazers until I die. Hopefully we have some tricks up our sleeve come draft day. Take care everyone :D

    In my opinion, this off season will be more important than the 2014 off season with LA's free agency. Need a solid 3 and D guy on the wing and some proven vets. Gotta think Neil knows that if he fucks this one up he's gone next year.

    Without proper valet parking he's probably gone already.

    Yes, because #64 wins just screams ' I didn't care'.

    I called you a hypocrite for calling people on here nerds and geeks when you're probably the biggest nerd on this forum because of the job you have and the fact you troll people about being geeks and nerds does mean you are insecure. Whether you can see it or not. Next, I never directly attacked your career choice. In fact, I would LOVE to be able to do what you do for a living. It sounds really cool. I just don't like the other stuff, like you thinking you are above us or better than us because of the job you have.


    Who are you to decide what is a 'little overboard?' Did a moderator make you Lord of what is realistic? Everyone has different levels of passion for this team and if someone has a bit more 'excitement' than others do that doesn't mean they should be belittled and demeaned for it.


    You should practice your own advice and stop attacking people on here because it is as you said, we are all Blazers fans here. Right?

    Hello darkness, my old friend


    R.I.P. City.

    This team is not a healthy Nurkic away from the Warriors. They're a healthy Nurkic plus a bunch of good two-way players away from being able to compete seriously.

    Hopefully, the thrashing that we got will fuel our players to work on their game and get a lot better in the summer.

    As Lillard says, "Thanks for the motivation."

    That's only 18 points a game, about what Nurk scores. :ghoti:
