    Yes that was. Other than Dame, a pathetic performance of epic proportions. This team is scuffling. The Blazers need help at forward. That position doesn't bring enough firepower on a consistent basis. Maybe time to see if Jake can bring some scoring to the starting 5. Or maybe try Zach in the starting 5 next to Nurk. Try something Stotts.

    I haven't been around here much, so maybe I missed the memo...are you some kind of contrarian-joke poster?...just saying ridiculous shit to get reactions?

    I mean, this good-ship-lollypop has to be an act...right?

    Wish I understood that game and then I would join you. This Blazers team is like watching an endless stream of groin hits on America’s Funniest Home Videos, but without the laugh track.

    Oh, and this is why that silly 14-3 Christmas record is so dumb.


    But just for giggles, we've lost 3 out of our last 4 Christmas games. lol.

    Dude, seriously - do you intend this to be a positive, cheer-people-up post? Because it sounds like a GSW fan taunting Blazer fans.

    Don't get me wrong.....I'm not for hiring just any ol' bum off the street. But yes, it's glaringly obvious that we need a new coach and GM.

    This is not a playoff team. Reasons the first unit plays no defense that has to be the worst defense I ever seen in NBA game from 1st unit. Defensely we have no concept what they want to do. Offensely there no ball movement. You got 2 guards either going iso or going around a screen then shoot. I think in the whole game there was one time they had more then 1 pass and that was beginning of the 2nd half that lead to a dunk by harkless. Then the last 4 games 3 of them we have scored less then 100 points.

    Thing is, that Utah team is incredibly flawed too - and yet we managed to make them look really good twice in a week.

    If they somehow face us in the first round, they'll sweep us in 4 games.

    Can we honestly say we're better than any team in the West besides Phoenix?

    Like the posts that want to ignore anything even somewhat decent thats happened while NO or Stotts were here, and only blame them for the bad things. Everything that happened that was good was pretty much because of someone else. If it was bad it was all them!
    Im all for letting both go especially Stotts.

    Man You are missing all the shots missed off Dame passes. Blame CJ, YES, he sucks at passing, but I saw so many quality passes by Dame that went freakin' EMPTY. Game Over man.

    '

    But can you honestly say we are worse than anyone besides Golden State and a healthy Houston? I am as pissed as anyone about how we're playing - but the entire conference is playing this way.

    That's what's so maddening - we could be better.
