    Lots of bricked threes, but good fighting on the offensive boards.

    Watching Jrue Holliday fight through screens is a defensive clinic.

    This is worst shooting night i have ever seen. We hit only 4 three pointers. While pelicans shoot 60% from 3.

    This is why I havent gotten excited for the 4 game win streak.

    We're not beating playoff teams in a series looking like this most nights. And we do look like this most nights. It was a struggle to beat GSW, and we also lost to them.

    Getting a playoff seed this year is awful. Next year, we're a contender.

    You do realize regardless of who deletes the post the mods can still see every post made right?
    I read what you said and that is not what you said. In fact I've read the entire exchange between @BonesJones @KingSpeed @kjironman1 @Chris Craig and @Wade Garrett

    I'll summarize it.
    Bones was negative, people didn't like it. Myself included.
    Kjiron started talking to bones for a bit about the negativity. They responded to one another.
    Once Kjiron was finished talking he stopped responding until the break.
    Meanwhile King and Wade both insult Bones for whatever reason.
    Bones then responds in a way I didn't think he needed to but as @SlyPokerDog says. When you bait a response out of someone. The person who baited said response doesn't get to choose the response they get.

    Then it's known Chris doesn't like negative posters in game threads.
    This is known.... and while I don't think he's necessary wrong about how Bones was responding... Except for it being insulting... It wasn't an insult. As Kingspeed said it was mocking.

    At the end of the day all 5 people in this thread involved in it prolly could've made better choices.
    But it is what it is.

    No one is happy Portland is losing tonight.

    I just wish we'd wait to miss all our wide open threes against a team like the Clippers, not a winnable game against New Orleans. These nights happen in the NBA, but it doesn't make it any less frustrating!

    Less than 14% from 3. Just a sad game. You can't have efforts like this one if you want to claw your way back into being a good team. Getting off to a bad start reduces your margin for errors.
