    Adam silver better figure out a way to let Damian move on to the 2nd round and leave the rest of these blazer bums behind. They dont deserve to wear the same uniform. All night, missing dunks missing wide open shots...

    Stotts should have called timeout after that rebound with 17 secs left then CJ stepped out of bounds because he has to dribble all pretty and shit.

    So much this.

    But then the 2-3 minute runs that Stotts would give someone like Little don't exactly help develop a player.

    I just want to hear what they have to say for themselves, out of morbid curiosity.

    He overslept, came in his PJs, and Stotts loaned him his coat.

    Gotta admit that was a great game to watch!

    Great comeback and who will ever doubt Damian Lillard again?

    Would have been nice if a single other Blazer would have contributed on the offensive end after 2 mins left in regulation.

    They have 3 6'8+ guys in the starting lineup and we have 1. We are getting annihilated on the boards. It's not Norms fault. He's never been a good rebounder, and he's asked to outrebound guys with 6 inches over him.

    Came down to the role players. Denver’s role players (MPJ, Morris, and Rivers) made their threes down the stretch while Portland’s (CJ, Melo, Powell, RoCo) played like hot garbage.

    Well on the bright side at least the rest of the world had finally seen:

    1. Dame is actually still insanely good in the playoffs. Hopefully that bullshit is finally put to rest.
    2. Our team is really not that good and Dame has been carrying this carcass for years.
    3. Terry Stotts is garbage.

    that is one of the most amazing stats, in a bad way, I've ever seen

    bad roster construction, but hey, they were under the tax line

    Dame deserves a ring or maybe Jody need to over pay a superstar to pair with Dame

    He was +11 vs CJ's -7 for the game. Give him 22 shots and let's see what he does.
