    Sometimes you gotta get your ass kicked to humble yourself to make needed changes.

    I mean they shouldve been used to getting smoked in the playoffs, lol.
    I get what you’re saying. I kind of agree.

    That is why I’m paid to be here. To kick the rookies ass and break them down to their lowest in hopes of them learning and bettering themselves.

    Yeah I like having a SF in there with Dame and CJ who can handle the ball but not as the main facilitator. If you really want to go that route then I would rather see Baldwin in there in a 3 guard lineup. The guy has a 6'10" wing span. He can guard a lot of SF's not named LBJ and KD.

    It is scientifically proven that students learn better near well manicured grass.

    Is there a potential for some blowout games to kick off the season with?

    I'm ashamed to say, but i really want to see a lineup of Collins,Layman,Trent,Baldwin and Simons! i already know how the starters play, i want to feel something fresh!

    How is Joe Freeman so bad at his job? WTF is "affective?"

    The editors at the O need some serious help.

    Also, who is updating the RC2 twitter feed on the right these days? What's with all the retweets about stuff completely unrelated to the Blazers? Why do I care what Patty Mills thinks about Ginobili's retirement?

    I think the RC2 twitter feed is now everything from the accounts that the RC2 account follows.

    Affect is dealing with things on the mind, like how it “affects you emotionally”. Effect is more in the realm of physics thats how Ive alwayed been told to differentiate the two words.
    Yeah the Lakers game 1! :)

    No it all makes sense. THIS is why this place had gone downhill in recent years.
