    Now a few here wants to blame CJ and if dame would got the last shot and miss a few of you would blame him. The guy that was on was CJ it was the right person tonight and he miss. But without him and the bench we wouldn't been close. Dame and Nurk didn't have good game it happens just look foward and get ready for next.

    We're only 2 games back of the number 1 seed. Time to bounce back and win the next one. Lots of basketball left to play.

    Exactly, this team falls apart late in games, and guys scrambling around going one on one, totally out of control.

    I think if we had another scoring threat, an athletic wing who can penetrate.... thst would all change. Teams are keying on Dame and CJ all day. They have to work way too hard to get a shot off. And no one else is consistent enough to pick up the slack.

    You think it's smart basketball to have a 6-1 PG switched onto a 7' Center?

    Really?

    Read that again. He was making fun of Stotts.

    I don't know what the fuck Moe's deal is. He just goes invisible for multiple games at a time. He'll flash in and make one or two plays, but otherwise just seems to float around and not do much. I'm done waiting on him to learn to shoot. He's just never going to shake that awkward, slow release.

    No I don't. Nor do I think a 6'6" guy should switch on to 7' center.

    It's unfortunate that Dame AND Nurk struggled tonight. If even one of them played decent we would have been fine. Credit the Grizzlies defense I guess

    He's excellent on the slashing attack in the paint, but beyond that, he's shit.

    But what about Patty? Jesus, talk about flash in the pan!

    Next game we should try to get Harkless involved early on offense. Post him up. Maybe it'll get him engaged into the game because right now his play can't be described as anything but lazy. Maybe he's just checked out of Portland since we wanted to replace him all summer.

    During an out of bounds play in the early 4th the arena Mic picked up a Blazer shouting, "Don't run that play again. We don't know it". Couldn't tell who said it, but that is a bit telling.

    Anyone else pick that up?

    I'm not necessarily anti-Stotts but I am curious about how a different kind of coach would handle this team. With our big 3 I'm not sure we would play that different. But thats what would be interesting to see

    Ick. I don't want to post him up. He's got no game. His game is cutting to the basket and dunking.
