    Nah, their guys are just playing harder because they are trying to make the roster/rotation. Our guys are just being lazy, no effort because they don't care about this game.

    man, this was supposed to be one of the more athletic teams that the Blazers have had in like 15+ years.

    They suck

    Why does Nurk STILL make such stupid rookie fouls, and he's in his 9th year?

    I'm seeing a ton of improvement in this team!

    Last year after Dame went down the team really struggled to tank. We kept having to make up more more injuries in order to sit players because we were winning games we should be losing.

    But this year, it's the preseason and we already have tanking down!

    They have an owner willing to spend and have had a GM who can indentify talent. If only we could be so lucky.

    It should be a defensive 3 second everytime down on GSW. All they do is camp in the paint on defense.

    Two nice moves in a row from Shaedon. Probably should take him out of the game now...

    Shaedon should get all of the minutes and shots for the remainder of the game.

    I count at least 8 teams in the WC that are clearly better than the Blazers, maybe 9.

    And if the Lakers actually are healthy, 10.

    As ugly as it is to say, at this point, anyone on the team is available for trade with the exception of Dame & Shaedon.

    Dame because I'm loyal to him and want to see him be a Blazer his entire career - although yes, he would bring the biggest payday.

    Shaedon because he's shown enough that I think he will turn out to be something special.

    Everyone else screams role player at best.
