    Every time CJ took a shot I wanted to punch a wall.

    Oh god.

    He’s a perimeter defender. Who cares. We didn’t lose this game because Powell had no rebounds. We lost this game because CJ was 7-22 from the field and decided to step out of bounds at one of the worst times possible

    Seriously, they need to print this out and tape it up all over the locker room.

    Replace the little TV screen on the flight back with this image.

    Cj had a pump fake side step 3 with slowcic on him. Why is he driving with 9 seconds left down by 3.

    Maybe let him play his actual position and send CJ's ass to a team that will play him at lead guard.

    Blazers don’t have a chance against the Lakers or Suns but I want them to advance to watch more Dame

    He’s getting minutes because outside Nurk and Kanter he’s the only other player who is suiting up who can guard both the 4 and 5

    Sly when’s the last time he made a big timely shot?

    Would this team be better if we benched CJ and started DJJ?

    Dame
    Norm
    DJJ
    RoCo
    Nurk

    I will always root for us to win but if we don't I'll be very happy to see the Terry Stotts era come to an end.

    He literally tied an NBA record tonight. It's notable.

    Sadly probably not. Not sure where the offense comes from outside of Dame and our team has proven that even with good defenders because of who our coach is, we always suck ass on defense.

    Then what? Get smacked the next round against a pretty healthy Suns team. Shit even if they weren’t healthy! This team is garbage outside of Dame

    And why didn't stotts challenge 1 call? The refs made no bad calls against us? Just one could have changed the outcome

    Dame balled out tonight. I didn't know this, but a friend shared with me that the Blazers minus Lillard went 1/19 in OT/2OT.

    If Little had all of Melos minutes this year we’d be a better team right now.

    All we had to do was give Dame the ball and we fucked that up. I don’t get it.

    They called it unsuccessful, technically.
