    We come back from this road trip a different team. I believe in our culture, I see the talent, and I believe in Lillard’s leadership. This road trip sets us right.

    Nope its just Terry scotts sucks ass as a coach. He is Jason Garrett of cowboys pathetic, how on earth did you get destroyed by a G league team warriors without a single starter. He can not motivate his players and his system is iso ball Dame save me, it has no movement its predictable we are a jumpshooting team with terrible shooters and no defenders. I don’t know many coaches who are 8 years still with 1 team and never won champion chip, he is always outcoached at end where we blow 20+ pts lead, how many more years with this clown?! Is Dame prime gonna be wasted with scotts? The most pathetic coach in whole NBA i hate that clown

    The hard part for me on losing all these games is I don’t get to see any Brooke post game interviews. Damn, I missed Brooke

    It might just be as simple as having too many guys who don't really have that "killer" mentality. I think Baze has it. He's definitely tough-minded. Herzonja doesn't. I think maybe Whiteside lacks it. Probably the thing that holds Skal back, tbh. Ant and Nas are too young yet.

    Aminu and Mo might have been limited, but I think they were tough players. Curry was small, but he was a tough player. They came to compete and knew their roles and got good in those roles. They'd get loose balls. They'd buckle down on key possessions and in crunch time. Even when we struggled, they never seemed to hang their heads or look defeated.

    These guys ... ugh. They're likable. Maybe they are too likable.

    Little...mass hustle all night long and the most of any Blazer by far.
    Simons....the most efficient Blazers guard on the floor.

    Neither one in while the Blazers were getting crushed. #Coaching

    Is that related to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? Maybe we need to trade for Schrödinger’s cat? Might fix our defense.

    You know I cannot for the life of me figure out why he didn’t play him in the fourth? I honestly thought he was just resting him. I even commented that he would put him in. Clown move for sure by Stotts.

    Its not about the game. Its about managing a player to help the team succeed. He didnt do that.


    Look deeper. Dont be so myopic.

    Fun fact: the leading cause of aneurysm in the city of Portland is Terry Stotts.

    Maybe there's a reason why we're 4-8 with an MVP candidate. Think about that for half a second and process it.

    I know. But it’s not like Stotts is any different now than he was a few months ago

    You got to admit not putting Little back in was a head scratcher.
