    Really he got 20 attempts this is not on Billups it's on Dame to figure it out.

    Agreed...

    And the problems are much bigger than Dame's shooting.

    Upside: we don't have to keep saying Olshey had a great offseason.

    Blazers lose to a 76ers team without their 3 best players and fall to 3-4 on the season. The Blazers Uprise Postgame Show tries to figure out what's been wrong these last two games. Join us and talk some Blazers:

    he hurt his shoulder and messed up his shooting form?

    how the hell is that even a CLOSE comparison?

    That might be worse than your Billups = Terry Porter take, and that one was idiotic.

    Damn straight. Some losses are beyond excuses, rationalizations, or justifications.

    Time to take a break....this team does not deserve an emotional investment.

    Keep thinking that. You went so far ALL IN on everything wrong being on Terry Stotts you don't have anywhere else to go.

    I'm guessing he'll be spreading the "breaking bad habits" propaganda when he gets a chance. Something subjective and undefinable is all he's got anymore.

    Yep. And I will every time. Because it's common sense.

    Nice try. Moving on.

    I'm still saying it's a slump he'll come out of and it's not like he's not trying to. I don't think there is anything to defend him for because shooters go through slumps, they just usually aren't this long. I do think this slump has cost us some games but I also think the rest of the team needs to be ready to step up better than they have.

    I do not want to hear Billups talk about "effort" anymore. The team is going to get tired of him saying it and it's not the main problem.

    Blazers in full strength can’t even beat a team of scrubs…. Just embarrassing

    Suppose Dame just kept playing like this. At what point do you bench him?
