Game Thread GAME# 51: BLAZERS @ JAZZ - APRIL 8, 2021 - THURSDAY, 7:00, NBCSNW

Another thing I told ya. GOOD FOR HIM. Dame deserves the best. This organization has failed him and wasted his time.

 

When asked about playing Melo/Kanter together on defense:

Stotts: "It hasn't been good... we have to be better with those two on the floor."

He followed up by saying they are going to continue to play. Says "if we lose a little on defense, we have to make up for it on offense."

 

yes....same rules as last year....maybe

 

You don't need to tell Olshey that. Just tell Olshey to look for another job and the new GM will take care of it w/out directive.

 

I think its lottery protected. I might be wrong.

 

Guys, we are making the playoffs and the streak is alive but we are not going to beat anyone. We just need to prepare for that.

 

If that is the case, I'd rather have the glimmer of hope with the Lottery pick.

 

yeah....with all of these aggressively anti-stotts posters, it's loopy for them to not also be anti-olshey. One situation doesn't exist without the other

 

It only failed because Stotts is still the coach after almost 10 years. Any GM with brains would have fired stotts after pelicans sweep. We must go on 10 game loosing streak and hope stotts sorry ass will be fired

 

If they weren't prepared for this in November, they never will be.

 

I read that joke on FB today, but it was with potatoes.

 

it would barely be a glimmer because the same guy managing the pick is the same one who managed the last draft Portland had a lottery pick:

10 Zach Collins
13 Donovan Mitchell
14 Bam Adebayo
19 John Collins
22 Jarrett Allen
23 OG Anunoby

 

Yet some of the loudest anti-Stotts people refuse to criticize Olshey with any consistency, some won't do it at all.

 

This is proof Stotts is a fucking moron. I mean what else does Jody need?

 

Olshey is the one who decides if Stotts has a job.

 

You're making me cry!

 

What were the number 1s we gave up to get 10? I wanna know what TWO players we could have to really twist the knife.

 

Pretty sure Jody could clean house or demand Stotts gone, both should be fired.

 

Sorry... I'm just sharing information!

If I were trying to be an apologist, I would not have posted it. I know a lot of people don't hear the press conferences and I thought those lines were noteworthy.
