    My first guess would be that virtually none of the new players they added this summer have a history of being winners. Obviously something changed since last year and this year and there aren't many things to point at other than roster change and injuries.

    Seriously? "Enough talent to be a .500 team". That means if anything at all goes wrong. If they have a bad game every third or fourth game they fall significantly below .500. Enough talent to be .500 means they are really really bad.

    His name is Zach Collins and as soon as he went down I wrote the season off.

    I went to the Twolves game here in Portland. Then last night watched Dieng close. The guy is good for about 6 mins. After that he drops off like stepping into quicksand.
    Way too many people want that dude on this roster. He played so old and slow I seriously mistook the guy for Luol Deng.

    We're so garbage lmao. I never wann hear how "elite" our Backcourt is, a Team with Lillard/McCollum and Whiteside, Melo and Bazemore in the S5 shouldn't be this bad

    Him and Nurk.
    Somebody has to at least get in a guys face and say “You ain’t getting away with hard fouls when I’m on the court!”

    That elbow that undercut Mario, causing his injury, was some dirty shit on a vulnerable player. I can't believe no one called it out.

    Heads need to f-ing roll after that performance. Who gives a damn if it was at the end of the road trip? They had absolutely no one on their team and we got run out of the building.

    I don't get this complacency.
