    If Noah Vonleh is a -5 or better +/- we are undefeated... if he’s worse than a -5 he typically doesn’t play in the second half... so basically if he is a -5 or better at halftime we’re going to win. If not we have a 25% chance of winning.

    You are salty tonight. It wouldn't have matter if Dame took a 5 there.

    If he takes a long 3 then someone is just going to say "way to jack it up from so far out"!

    I most certainly want Nurk over Cousins. Cousins is a total fucking headcase who plays no defense.

    Even if you absolutetly love nurk, you gotta go with Cousins for right now... if Nurk develops (and he should) then have this poll in 4 years and itll be nurk.

    But ya gotta be realistic.

    Even you now? This is getting pathetic.

    POR will win their next game (and that isn't to say the problems won't still linger - those can't be fixed that easy).

    To choose Nurkic over Cousins is crazy. Cousins is elite. Would be Portland’s best player on day one.

    Worst loss of the season. I'm irate. A loss to a WC playoff team missing its best player on the second night of a b2b at home, should be a schedule win at the worst.

    Our players (leaders especially) need to take a long look in the mirror. This was unacceptable.

    And Dame needs to stop acting like he's hot shit on twitter about his defense. He undid all the good he had done this season in two games this week. Maybe be a bit more humble now?

    We all have those games that affect us so I understand. This one hasn't affected me as near much as some others.
