    No. And if they did, the NBA doesn't care

    I'd go...
    Dame, Sauce, Collins, Big Nurk, and anyone other than CJ. Wait.... Seth is my 5th guy. That's your kick ass end of the game lineup....

    Sorry fellas I might be to blame for this one. Wasn't able to be as loud tonight. Going in tomorrow for procedures on my throat. Had to not overdo it tonight.

    Also do you think yelling louder wouldve caused the Blazers to play a little bit of defense...

    These here are words of gold. Good call Cippy. You and Eric need to keep giving us the positive outlook on things.... (Lol???)

    :bgrin:

    :cheers:

    @KingSpeed . Yeah Eric, I've been gone for awhile. It's awesome to see that you haven't changed in how positive you are towards the Blazers. Fuck the pathetic, insulting doubter. Keep rolling it. You're giving at least one person more hope.....

    It was more-so on Aminu than Lillard.

    He had four or five and ones that weren't called. He got to the line 15 times because he is aggressive and 15 should have been 19.

    If they hated Dame he wouldn't have had 10. They miss calls both ways.. can't blame them for how dumb we played.

    Yup, and we'll do it again(bitching about whatever, game-wise.....) Lol

    Thanks man, I really appreciate it. I seriously have missed the place, and the good people here. I'm thinking I'll give it another shot. We'll see how long it lasts.....

    I wasn't able to watch the game live so I took notes as I watched. For the record, I am posting this before reading through this thread:

    1st half:

    I’ve been calling for the “Connaughton Lob” play for Layman to try and get him going. It’s a great play to run at random times.

    Turner came in and shot a 3 pointer and a long 2. That isn’t what has been working with him. Then he settled down and shot several shots in a row within 10 feet which is much better.

    It’s so weird and nice to see the 2nd unit hold or extend leads even when the other team brings their starters back in.

    CJ really struggled in the 1st half but I don’t feel like he was taking bad shots or anything. I’m not really sure what he should do if he’s getting good looks and they aren’t falling. He can get hot at any moment.

    How does Beal get an offensive rebound with 4 Blazers around him?

    Stauskas driving and cutting to the basket is something he needs to do over and over again if they are overplaying him on the 3 point line. I love seeing the cuts to the basket.

    Beal is getting way too many clean looks. The guards can’t switch off of Wall and Beal and leave a big on an island with them .

    I wish they would keep attacking when the Wizards are in the penalty and keep getting to the free throw line. Dame was getting to the line almost every time he drove, he should just keep doing that.

    Our bigs get absolutely no love from the refs.

    Too many turnovers.

    The pace of this game is crazy, I guess this is the NBA now?

    2nd half:

    CJ if Morris is on you and they have no other big in the game who do you think is on Nurk?

    Way too fucking sloppy, we would be building a lead right now if we just took care of the ball. It’s hard to watch when everyone is making lazy plays and passes. Stop that shit now so the game doesn’t slip away.

    Nurk is shooting great from the free throw line. He looks comfortable and is taking his time. This is a huge weapon if he can shoot a high percentage. He should try to get to the line more.

    Maybe Stotts should try playing Stauskas or Curry with the starters when CJ is struggling this badly.

    We’re taking bad shots and seem rushed when there are good looks. This 3rd quarter has been the ugliest of the season so far.

    How about just not shooting outside of 12 feet Turner? That goes double if it is a turn around and you aren’t square with the basket.

    Luckily the Wiz suck right now too.

    How the fuck is that a foul on Harkless when Oubre is draped all over him and falls over trying to push him out of the way?

    Quit throwing the ball right to the Wizard players, please.

    Rivers banks in a 3 really? Then he proceeds to complain about every foul he commits even though they are clear fouls.

    Over 8 minutes left and we’re shooting free throws the rest of the way. Keep attacking! Lets win this game at the line.

    Are we just going to let Wall be a bully and back down Dame every play? If we aren’t doubling how are people getting open so easily for lay ins?

    CJ good skip pass! Having Stauskas on the weak side is a nice weapon.

    Can we please not let them get to the rim every play?

    Another good skip pass from CJ, this time Aminu hits!

    Stauskas needs to either take the charge or foul to where Oubre can’t finish that. You can’t give up an and one in that situation.

    We always let the Wizards hang around. Then shit happens like Beal travels and they don’t call it and Morris nails a three. Fuck there is a 2nd one.

    CALL THE FUCKING FOUL, THAT WAS AN AND ONE ON DAME’S 3!

    Dame why are you throwing that full court pass in that situation?

    The refs are going to give Oubre a tie up when he barely was touching the ball?

    SAUCE CASTILLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good fucking pass Dame!

    D the fuck up! Damn it, how do we leave their best player wide open? Fucking Aminu, he loses his man in those situations too often.

    Great, overtime, we just love to give the Wiz every chance possible to win.

    Fuck you Morris! They just showed him twice grabbing Curry from the bench. He should be suspended at least 20 games for that. I’m not joking. I’m so pissed off. That is such dirty ass bullshit. The Blazers should be awarded technical free throws after the fact to win in regulation or the Wiz should forfeit the game. I don’t give a shit that it didn’t effect the play. Of course Morris dominates the overtime after he should have been thrown out of the game.

    How do we leave yet another shooter wide the fuck open? FUCK!

    Call the fucking fouls ref. You are missing so many fouls. That is two shots Dame should be shooting a free throw after hitting a jumper. The first missed one would have given us the win in regulation because we would’ve been up 4.

    Fuck this shit. You can’t lose these games.

    Yes, if any of the following variables equal zero: u, s, a, i, t, or u. Or if 235 or 3 equals zero, but probably not.
