    We are not well coach I don't want anybody says. Players not even looking to shoot all there trying to do find Dame. Defensely if can't rebound on defense boards your not going be a good defense team.

    Why is rocco playing?? Absolutely useless. Of course shroder came back bs us not vs any other team but first game back vs Portland we always get shit on. But this team is useless if it doesn’t hit 3 pointers it’s terrible coached team just i fucking hate this team . Once we lost giles not signing back up center destroyed us. Kanter worst defensive player in history of basketball

    Who would want him except as an expiring; and he has a player option, so even that won't go.

    Wake me up when Hood, Melo, and Ant are gone and we didn’t sign Cousins.

    I think my stream got recycled, it was just a three point foul.

    No team is a pushover with this current roster/injuries.

    I tired to tell ya early in the season. But this team ain’t it. Remember we looked like this even with Cj and Nurk possibly even worse. Don’t let that 6 game win streak fool ya

    The only way to get better is to do it more often. He was clanking 3s his rookie year and now he's a great shooter.
    The same goes for Dame and team defense (he became a solid man-to-man defender), don't be afraid to try and fail, eventually you'll get better at it

    Saying this for years
    The Covington trade seriously is just slightly worse than the Felton trade. Covington's not a dog player like Felton. But you can't give up two first rounders for an average offensive player and a slightly above average but outsized defensive player.

    Could the Blazers use a player the caliber of Talen Horton-Tucker sometime in the next 5 years? Probably, but you miss those opportunities when you flush resources down the toilet.

    We had to send two mid-first-round picks and a player out to get RoCo. The Lakers got Dennis Schroder for an aging player and the 28th pick.

    That's horrible GMing.

    How many years has Terry been vexed by the high trapping of Dame?

    To be fair most people were complimentary of the trade at the time, RoCo has just been a major disappointment.

    Two first rounders was a lot.
