    Where’s Olshey, that punk usually comes out of hiding at the end of the season. I dare him to say anything other than we’re looking for a new coach.

    it's not gutless, its fucking idiotic. the guy has no BBIQ, and no common sense. so out of his depth as a head coach. He needs to thank his lucky stars Dame is here to save his ass year in and year out

    Monte Morris and Austin Rivers were better than Powell and CJ

    After the performance in this year’s playoffs? I doubt there will be a robust market for him. This is the ultimate sell low proposition so the Blazers may only get 50 cents on the dollar in value. Good riddance in my opinion. Just completely stunk it up after expressly stating in Tuesday’s presser that he would “be better” in tonight’s game.

    Stotts should get plenty of blame but sure as hell he doesn't get "all' the blame

    Portland got beat by a better team, and they were better while missing a couple of starters

    What I mean by that is moves can be made after a team loses.

    When NFL teams are done with a season, they call it black Monday. Lol. They fire coaches every year the day after their season is over.

    The fact that that camera guy predicted this series correctly is just icing on the cake

    It can be both gutless and idiotic. I think gutless is worse, because it's knowing what to do and still being afraid to do it.

    Yes but lets be real. Had we won and also win game 7 we are toast against suns or lakers. If we were by miracle to advance to WCF because Dame went supernova that would give stotts another contract. This team had a bacterial infection that was spreading eating Dames prime up. It has to be amputated. Finally stotts is getting amputated.

    I’m not defending Stotts. I don’t mind a coaching change or much better a GM change. Stating a fact. Stotts didn’t foul two 3 point shooters did he. No. Among many other stupid plays.

    i know that i will be banned for this. I do not care anymore. The key moment was Stotts mistake to not challenge nurks foul where Jokic scored three fts. That was the KEY moment in this match.

    I will now be true balkan fan who say this when hates somebody. Mr Stotts i f.ck you, your complete close and wide family who are 21 and older. I wish you very worst things in your life. I wish to never ever see your stupid ugly brainles face anywhere on tv either in Portland or anywhere else. You are the most ugly person i have ever watched. You are the reason why i will not watch the rest of the playoffs, i cant watch basketball because of you. Go f.ck away from Portland, from Dame and take your fucking cj with you. Change the job. If you can find anything with that brainles, stupid and ugly face. If you read this or anybody show you, i will repeat: F.ck you, your complete family older than 21 ( including 21).

    Road the coattails of one the greatest PG's of this generation and managed to underachieve. Make no mistake, that's why he has so many wins.
