    Dump Harkless while we are at it. We need to dump at least one bad contract this window.

    I think we've had the most three game win streaks in the league this season.

    Come on Nurk...I can use the eye test and see Collins developing every game no matter what his stats say. Where'd you go? Did you forget how great you wanted to be? Bad boys?

    If they wouldn't mind taking on Harkless, it'd be even more ideal. Harkless, Layman and two 2nds for Evans and Wright.

    We'd have two less if we beat Denver...

    Blazers shoot 36.7% fg, and still found a way to win. Nice to see them grit this one out.

    We often play well on a back to back at home after a bad shooting night. I hate to jinx it but I have a good feeling about tomorrow.

    You know what they say: deaths, NBA trades, and Blazer wins come in threes.

    I hope so. As a fan, I always have a deal with myself. Once we've won 4 in a row, I'm fine with a loss. 4/5 ain't bad. But this year, we haven't won 4 in a row, so I've never been fine with a loss.

    Grandjury gets banned, Dame tears it up. Coincidence?

    It is.

    Lillard is so great, don't understand how he's not a star in the media but John Wall is. Boy does John Wall piss me off. He's supposedly the fastest player in the league and spends his entire time on the court walking.

    Fairly un-inspired performance outside of Nurk's rebounding against a depleted roster...but a road win is a win. Take it and run.

    Exactly 3 games, yes; we have 5, NOP has 4, 3 other teams have 3. 3 or more games, GSW and SAS both have 6 such streaks, and NOP, LAC, HOU also have 5.

    I think Lillard is a way bigger star in the media than John Wall....more commercials..shoe deals....rap album...Dame is a smart guy at building a brand

    POR just needs to be patient with Nurk (I go crazy every game watching him play), cause he is diamond in the rough

    I mean, when he was traded here, he had great 20 games, Nurk fever and all that and now he played 47 games and didnt played as we expected, at least on the offensive side of the floor, defensively hes been great... but he still had great games and people are willing to trade him

    hes quite possibly our COTF, hes 23 and PATIENCE is the key! none of his flaws are unfixable...

    but then again, I see people saying we should trade Dame, so...

    however, I dont uderstand how can anyone say: trade him for DAJ or Marc Gasol, like thats gonna make us better team... wed still loose in the 1st round, 2nd round exit at best... Im not prepared to trade young and talented 23 y0 for them and for that

    its all good thinking to win now, but if its impossible and lets be honest, it is, I want to look at the future and theres no future with the DAJ and Marc Gasol
