    I don't know if there are any stats on this, but seems like when he misses his first shot, he is going to have a bad night.

    I am going to keep my last post of the night semi simple

    1) Thanks Dame for giving it your all even when you get little to no help
    2) Screw Jody Allen -- she needs to sell ASAP
    3) Fire Cronin
    4) Fire Billups he might be a nice guy but cannot coach worth a shit

    I hope all you have a goodnight and lets all pray to the lotto gods that we get the #1 pick

    Might have to do with why Hart collected so many. Everyone just stands around and doesn’t put a body on anyone.

    So, who in the draft (that isn't a PG) would make a difference (and I mean outside of victor, who I'm leary about due to that knee alignment thing).

    Damn, I’m visiting Portland on the 17th and looks like I wasted my money for that Celtics game

    right there with you in pretty much this entire post. we have a coach who only speaks platitudes to the media and jokes with opposing players. dude has shown absolutely 0 improvement in in-game coaching with almost 150 games under his belt as HC. he can go.

    and i will help dame drive to the airport to get out of this shitshow.

    I'm hoping we can move up to 7 in the tankathon ratings by the end of the upcoming road trip.

    We don’t need anymore draft picks other than Victor. Dame is 32 and need help now

    I think I'm done with Nassir. It's not like the guy is in his 2nd year. He is inconsistent as hell, and needs to be traded out.

    Amen and Jarace would be probably best fit that bill.

    Saying this for years
    Grant's going to become the wedge issue on this roster moving forward that C.J. was.

    I hope the Blazers have a handshake deal for him to come back, because losing him for nothing and not having the resources to replace what he gives you is a killer. That being said, he's barely worth what he makes now -- he looks like he's picked up Jusuf Lackofengagement Disease in the last 20 game with his questionable shot selection in the 2H of games and he seems to have stopped trying on defense; he just passed Ingram off to Dame constantly down the stretch.

    The biggest problem with Grant, though, is he doesn't rebound. He doesn't rebound at all. When you're putting together a roster, you need to take that into consideration. Nurk can't be the only guy on your roster who rebounds. Even if you like Eubanks (although I wouldn't know why) or Watford more for their versatility, you have to make that sacrifice because otherwise you have a gaping hole in that composition of the team, and the Blazers do.

    Well, every loss sucks to watch, but at least we got to see Dame score another 40+ point game. He makes every game worth watching.

    And there's this -
