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.

    It definitely is. Good catch.

    Wish we could start cleaning up these types of guys.

    And where are the stats to prove that players who average the 6th most minutes per game get swept in the first round?

    Cousins was 6th in minutes per game last year. He got hurt so even if I ignore that his team didn't get swept in the 1st round and bump up 7th to 6th, Kevin Durant, his team won the championship.

    So I had to go back one year to prove your fact wrong. Try again!

    If that's what you want to believe is the reason for all of this, go ahead.

    I'm not going to go back and look @ the comments but Aminu shut down Sap last night for the most part.
    Only time Aminu got beat was on the two handed dunk Sap had.
    Rest of the night Aminu destroyed him.
    Sap got off vs Nards/Kanter/Turner, because STOTTS was too ignorant to realize Aminu needs to follow Sap around. Or Collins needs to match up with him.
    He figured it out after half time, but then he got out coached(shocking) because Sap sat for what... 14 minutes? Which kept Aminu on the bench as well.
    I'm one of Aminu's biggest supporters. As well as someone who says it when he plays like shit.
    Guy was disruptive on the defensive end last night and should've played more."
    Seemed like anytime the ball went near him he was forcing a turnover or getting a deflection.
    He was also not lost and actually closing out on shooters.

    IMO Stotts & the lack of ability to catch the ball on dump off passes were the reasons for the loss last night.
    Seriously Portland bigs had how many opportunities at the rim that they didn't take advantage of?
    Shouldn't have to coach 'how to catch a ball'.
    Should coach 'how to put players in a position to succeed.'

    Hey @Nurkalicious I have some "insider" info about Dame and his "pregame" routine you are so upset about. Dame comes out and goes through an extensive routine from 5:15-5;45 EVERY game.
    He is meticulous out there. If you want, I could get you in to see this.
