    I swear this is bs. Scoot carried us this game momentum wise and we disrespect him by letting a chucker throw the whole game away

    Scoot looks good.
    Grant and Ant improve their trade values.
    Blazers lose.

    Perfect Blazer night!

    That last minute from Ant has to be one of the worst I've ever seen from a player in a close game.

    Please Fire Billups Now. Running one player to the hoop? That's how you end the game? Good lord.

    Let's try another ISO drive for Ant in traffic. Just might work this time.

    Ugh.

    That was an ugly ending.

    Zero passing at the end.

    Just one on whatever and hope it goes.

    I don't have anything nice to say about the refs. Scoot played really well.

    Good loss. Scoot and Clingan were bright spots.

    Ant destroying our offense in the fourth is also good information.

    I just dont understand Simons. He forced everything that last 2 minutes. Let's give Scoot a chance instead of whatever it is simons was trying to accomplish?

    I don't think Scoot even touched the ball in the last 4 minute stint he was in.

    And Grant with 34 points went the final 3-4 possessions without a touch.

    Billups is so clueless.

    Idiocy. A diagram of that game-ending play will be seen as the definition.

    Simons, Deni and Ayton cost us the game. Amazing we only lost by two considering how bad those three were.

    Pretty much just Simons on whatever. It feels like he was the only one to touch the ball the last 2 minutes.
