    Monty made it to the Finals. Terry wouldn’t know what that’s like.

    True... Neither would Monty if he were coaching our roster!

    Again, I love Monty!

    This game is highlighting exactly why you need a guy like CJ on offense deep in the playoffs.

    I honestly don’t think the talent gap between our roster and the Suns is that big. Suns might be a little better top to bottom but not light years. I think Monty has over achieved. I think Stotts has underachieved.

    Budenholzer with some Stotts-like deer in the headlights this quarter. Milwaukee’s basketball IQ is pretty low.

    Unfortunately for us, having a guy like CJ on our team seemed to prevent us from getting deep in the playoffs.

    You're not alone among Blazer fans who think that.

    I think it's fairly significant. Same with the Jazz, Lakers, and Clippers.

    Catch 22 if there ever was one. Every play was an iso

    You mean except for winning a ring as the lead assistant with the Mavs.

    Jazz yes. Clippers and Lakers have a significant gap between us.

    We agree...

    And I would say Denver and Dallas have a slight edge on us. Golden St as well, when healthy.

    Fun fact, the game is tied 77 - 77 and the Blazers won the championship in 77.
