    Would you believe it if I told you Thompson got a season high tonight? And for last year? And for the year before that? And the year before that?

    Not looking back any farther. What a joke.

    Has Stotts lost this team?

    There are some signs.

    we have no bigs. Stop throwing Stotts under the bus.

    I don’t think Stotts is anything special but nobody can win with Tolliver and 40 year old Carmelo Anthony as their big men.

    He let's them do whatever they want to do. Don't need to run any sets. The players probably like him. Some of the fans, not so much.

    @BonesJones @hoopsjock ..
    Concession...
    I'm"this close" to agreeing with you guys on Stotts...
    I can't go 100% yet due the depletion of the front court, where a once proud rebounding team now can't buy a rebound.
    I think Chris Webber is the biggest dumbass on TV (ask him why Dame wears "the number zero") but I agree with his pointing out the lack of ball movement and plays.
    Tonight I watched every single player give 50% effort on transition defense.
    I've always believed college ball is fir coaches and NBA is about players, still do. But this is getting ridiculous.

    It’s not Stotts. We have a shitty team, accomplished during the off-season or even before that when we grossly and incompetently overpaid ET and as a result couldn’t keep our team together. Sad, right during Dame’s prime.

    That begs the question why isn't Nassir Little starting. Stotts is the one who gave Anthony the starting job. The Blazers need energy and Stotts doesn't seem to care.

    Losing to the Warriors and the Cavs when you have the 2 best players on the court....someone needs to be held accountable.

    It doesn't matter who we draft or who we pick up in free agency your still going get the same offense and the same defense as long Stotts is the coach. Nothing going to changed. Stotts must go before next season. Yes we went to WCF final last year and CJ was out for awhile but you should also when those 2 players went at the end of the season we was playing team basketball. Yes CJ came for the playoffs but still we play team basketball at both ends. I just don't see it this year majority of the time. When we have we play pretty good but that slim or none.

    Stotts is an absolute moron. The minutes allotment given out the past two games is serious level mental retardation. A 14-year-old would be better at putting the best players on the court.
