    I've been saying that for three years, but Blazer management settled on CJ as option 1b

    He is still really young and to his credit definitely put on some muscle since last year.

    Get someone that actually understands defense. Whether it be a coach, player, fucking analyst I don't give a shit. This team has NO idea how to play defense.

    Wow Doncic is fucking sick. Give me this type of player one day. This is the type of legendary player that you need to win in this league

    At what point does Neil finally swallow his pride and blow it up

    this is one of the more embarrassing blazer games I’ve seen in a long long while

    He’s 20 years old and this is his first full season playing meaningful minutes. Everyone knew he was a raw talent that needs time to develop.

    What did you expect from him???

    This is a fair perspective. We overrate our young guys (as fans) in general, but Olshey was over the top about Ant this year, so that's probably why people had higher expectations.

    If the organization is going to anoint him as the next big one here then I expect more than the trash he’s been playing all year. Except that first 2 weeks of the season lol

    Lillard can keep you in a game and finish one but he’s gotta get some help here.

    Nice 11-0 run.....to get them within 14. That is a little bit depressing.
