    True. Take me off as a staff member so these people can shelter themselves from all the disgusting, harmful vile I post.

    Someone's taking my sarcasm a little too seriously.

    I'm the bad guy around here all the time. It's fun. Own it when it's necessary, apologize and move on when needed.

    Listen you motherfuckers, I'm the ranting asshole around here. None of you are in my league.

    Learn to rant, then play.

    Stotts is well respected by the best coaches out there.....not that they know anything, but he's been runner up for coach of the year...you don't get that if you're a bottom feeding coach..

    It's also possible to regress as a coach, lose the locker room, etc.

    I don't buy that that is where we're at as a team or coaching staff....as much as many forum members want to use him as a scapegoat....I don't think he deserves that from the fanbase....he's not happy about the close losses....he's said so. He also has his teams playing better as the season progresses...Stotts says his goal is to be peaking as a team come playoff time and the team should be better in March than November.....I agree...it's not like Nurk has had a ton of games to develop veteran chemistry with the roster....and Chief is a gaping hole in the lineup now....Stotts has said as much...Vonleh has played two games...patience brings rewards....which was my point...too early to freak out with 2 losses recently...one good win and everyone will be happy again

    What am I taking too seriously? I'm the one getting blasted because I said that I think it's ridiculous to still defend Stotts...

    pot kettle black isn't really being blasted unless you don't like pots, kettles, or blacks.

    you're the one telling people they don't know what they're talking about..etc......I'm just voicing my opinion....deal with it...Stotts is the one getting blasted...I'm not the guy saying you and I don't get along.....you sort of exposed yourself as seeing me as an adversary when really, I'm just a Blazer fan

    Patience? These problems were problems a year ago, and if anything they've gotten worse, while our personnel has gotten better. The improved defense hasn't been due to a scheme or philosophy change.

    People need to get ahold of themselves. They are 6-6. They should probably be 8-4. If they were 7-5 you ain't having all these conversations.
    Here is a quote. He knows better than we do i assume.
    "I respect coach's decision," said Nurkic, who scored 21 points against Brooklyn despite only playing for 53 seconds in the fourth quarter. "And to be honest, I never have a better coach than Stotts. So, there's (not) anything wrong."
    Stotts ain't going anywhere. He is just fine. Does he make mistakes? Yes. Would i have done things different last game probably. But you live and learn. Simple

    Some will defend Stotts and some want to hang him effigy. However, we can voice and hear the viewpoints of either side and enjoy the conversation in a civil manner.
