    Bring back Mike Rice so we can at least enjoy hearing some comedy and make the game more enjoyable while the Blazers are sucking.

    Didn't you hear, they just aren't fresh right now. Nothing to worry about! Other team's are struggling too!

    So sick of the bullshit, I just want players to get mad and show some emotion.

    You need to learn to read sarcasm a bit better, if I was serious there wouldn’t have been a smiley face on the end of that sentence. Tanking wasn’t an option but trades were, a lot of potential deals for a top 5 pick were debated to nauseum last Feb on this board. Bottom line this is the team we are stuck with until there is ownership in place, I’d sure as hell rather fall into the lottery than grab the 8 seed.

    Can I ask what process you're seeing? Cause all I'm seeing is a team that regresses to their mean, and only goes above it when one of two players gets hot.

    Seriously, what the fuck are you talking about?

    The process over results implies that they are playing the right way but not seeing the results. Do you honestly think they are playing the right way right now?

    Sweet Zombie Jeebus on a Jet Ski!

    I don't care what anybody says - there is *something* going on behind the scene that has this team psychologically and/or emotionally messed up.

    They can’t play the right way with 2 undersized ISO ball chuckers taking 60% of the shots and not playing defense
