    I can't wait for @Tince to argue what a great coaching job Stotts did tonight and for @JDC to state a bunch of adjustments Stotts apparently made that only he sees...

    JK guys.

    No, but it will be a blowout for that reason, so he'll achieve 8 minutes.

    I'm watching it to see the growth in Trent, and hopefully to see Simons put together a good game and maybe Little playing.

    And some fans are acting like it's not our horrible defense and instead the Kings are some amazing team...

    I’m trying to remember the last time they were this terrible on defense but nothing is coming to me.

    Are you really kidding though? I understand putting the JK to take the sting off because that'd be blunt otherwise but, I'm not sure it's a joke!

    Scouting Report on how to attack TrailBlazers defense:
    "Dribble or pass to wherever you wish to shoot from, and shoot it, BUT ONLY when you don't have a transition layin"...
    "3 pointers and dunks preferred..."

    Yeah did Nas like do something to get in the dog house? Seems like Trent / Little / Gabriel is a decent defensive group but seems like his minutes are going way down.

    Why is he playing with so much confidence? Did he feel more pressure here to perform? I've noticed that so far he isn't making any of those wild layup attempts. Has his coach asked him to limit his repertoire?

    2012 66 game season team. Awful. Kept losing by 40 points so we fired coach and traded Crash for the pick that would become Dame. That team was awful.

    Phenomenal team. Better than the LA teams. Combined. Better than both combined. The most fantastic contender.

    The thing is you'd think they'd change up their defensive schemes since it's obviously not working but Stotts is too stubborn.

    Who is this 'Little' fellow you speak of? Not sure Stotts is aware of him.

    You and I have VERY different interpretations of what a 'great team' is.

    I think we just have a horrible team overall TBH, but they do suck more than they need too, kind of think theyve kinda quit on the season.
