    True, but TBH I think we need to be ready to move on from Simons. I've seen enough at this point and I just don't think he's what we need next to Dame. I know, I know I truly thought it would be different, but it isn't. God I wish we had a good coach so I could know for sure it's not a coaching thing.

    Nobody is maxing out Grant. We will be the team offering the most money and it won't be a good contract for us but it won't be a terrible one either. This is what we do.

    Dame is trying to trust his teammates and they are letting him down.

    I will say we should have got Murphy or Jones in that trade.

    Our execution in the clutch is just mind blowingly bad.

    It doesn't matter if he's better, as good as or worse he's far too similar to the type of player that CJ is. The type that does not maximize Dame's game... the kind that makes our defensive back court a fucking mess.

    This team just falls apart so easy. It’s almost easy to identify a turning point as it happens

    I know they're not healthy (but neither is New Orleans) but does Portland even think this game is important?

    This has been embarrassing down the stretch defensively. Anyone on their team gets to the rim without even needing a screen.

    Lillard passes Jordan for most 40 points games as a 32 year old.
