    For the love of all things good,

    QUIT LETTING UP THE OFFENSIVE ATTACK EVERY TIME YOU GET A FUCKING LEAD.

    I don't get Nate. Why the fuck would you tell your team to stop taking chances when it was working all game long, only to go iso, iso, iso, iso, iso for the last 17 fucking minutes of a game?!!!

    It only hurts if you let it hurt.

    we were tearing the jazz apart in transition and fast break..and likewise for the jazz to us in the half court. THanks Nate for forcing the team into half court for the rest of the game

    Yeah, bad loss. They just seemed so out of sync from the third quarter forward pretty much. That and Roy is clearly still not 100% and Andre couldn't shoot the ball in the ocean.

    I guess if there's a bright side to this loss, it's that Canby had a decent game. :dunno:

    Tough loss. Nobody to blame except for everybody. A complete team meltdown.

    Honestly i really hope this team does not make the playoffs for the mere fact that Nate will be fired, hopefully

    With all of the injuries, there is no chance that Nate gets fired. Most of the league is in awe of how he still has this bunch competing for the playoffs.

    No it's not. If would have hurt if it were a playoff game. Game 7 of the 2000 WCF hurt. This season is as fucked as Obama's fiscal policies. All we can do is to continue to fight the good fight.

    Last year I, and many of u, were laughing at Ric Bucher when he wrote an article detailing how OKC had a brighter future than the Blazers...

    Looks like he was right

    If I didn't care, I wouldn't have watched. I've been looking forward to this game all weekend...mainly for Camby, who had a good turnout.....just sucked what happened.

    False. Unless of course you consider choking lead against New Orleans, Memphis, Jazz, and other teams I am surely forgetting an "amazing job."
