    Damn, Down by 18 and they win by 4! I was watching them and I must say the red uniforms suck because the numbers are hard to see. Napier said "it was nice to get a win in their red uniforms". I'm glad CJ and Shab carried the team in that 4th Q.

    Looking at the free throw disparity, it's clear that the refs cost us the opportunity to extend our home losing streak.

    I am wondering where all of the ref bashers are after a 47 to 14 FTA advantage for Portland.

    Yeah, especially since they didn't call enough fouls on Philly; shoulda been 67-14

    Philly fans lol. Crying about foul discrepancy. Maybe if Embiid (or anyone else on their roster outside of Simmons) actually attacked the basket instead of jacking jumpers, it would’ve forced the issue. Then again Embiid got his shit rocked the two or so times he actually went at Nurk, so...

    ET and CJ were on the bench for almost the entire comeback. Ball movement increased, actual good passing increase....it was a pleasant surprise.

    (When CJ did come back in, he went 1-4 the rest of the quarter making sure he got his shots and passing to no one.)

    Oh, Nurk flops. There is literally no denying that.

    This Team plays so much better when ET is on the bench. Sotts has to see that. He kills the Offense and his Defense is overrated. Harkless is a better Defender and can hit the 3, can also post up and is a good cutter. He is better in almost all Categories than Evan trash Turnover

    I wish he'd teach a little of that to Dame. It's the missing ingredient he needs to add in order to elevate his game to Harden's level.

    Even when Harkless is playing Bad he is still better than Evan turnover

    Fuck. Every fucking time. Every fucking time I fall asleep on the damn couch the Blazers come back to win & I miss it.

    If they televised every game on days when I am really tired, they'd never lose.

    he doesnt flop, hes theatrical and its beautiful thing to watch, like watching the ballet or figure skating... hes one of the best in the league, he always gets the calls, but I dont know why does he get hit in the head so often

    Embellish is a better word for what Nurk does, because I’ve never seen him try to fool a ref. He actually does get hit and makes sure the refs see it. I don’t see anything wrong with it. He’s not cheating the game. It’s really no different than taking a charge.
