How do you feel about home-and-away series during the regular season?

Poll closed Apr 11, 2019.

  1. Love 'em. The competition/rivalry is more fierce & fun playing 2 straight against the same team.

    9 vote(s)
    18.4%

  2. I like 'em. It adds some intrigue and interest to an otherwise long season.

  3. Meh. No opinion either way

    22 vote(s)
    44.9%

  4. I don't really like them. They don't add much to a regular season game.

    3 vote(s)
    6.1%

  5. Hate 'em. I don't like seeing the same team again so soon. And these seem to always end in a split.

    Worst reffed first half against us all season. That was terrible. Denver is being much more physical and they have 18 FTAs to our 4. GTFO. Pissed off rn.

    Yeah, because we got absolutely shafted by these zebras man.

    As far as the Dame hate, that's just the typical whiney posters that'll latch onto anything to whine about. CityofRoses aka GrandJury aka Tunchi whines about Dame any chance he gets.

    Its not so bad. If you think about it, The fact the Blazers are down 3 rotation pieces and 2 of their best 3 players its pretty impressive they’re still being competitive.

    Losing Curry really hurts. He’s so key to what we do. If Simons can’t hit shots, we’re in trouble.

    No Nurkic
    No C.J.
    We're not using Dame off the ball trying to get him looks at all
    We're not ISOing him at all (which is weird)
    We're running a bunch of movement and screens in his area and Denver is just loading up on him
    All our pick n roll is from the top, with none on the side
    We're not pushing enough in transition where he could attack a defense that wasn't set

    Basically what we see in the post-season every year. He hasn't had a chance to get going. Harden wouldn't have done anything in this structure and against this defense.

    Dame's also making some good passes. His teammates need to learn how to catch the ball.

    It's the Dame stuff that has me perplexed. People complain about Damian Lillard?!? I think perhaps he's earned a little leeway AND the game isn't over.

    Labinot was upset when we were up double digits because Dame wasn't going 1 on 3. Lmao.
