    Three years out of the playoffs says the game has passed him by. Don't like it, doesn't bother me. I've hated the Timberwolves since the Garnett days. If not liking a rival team or coach is a minority position on a Blazer board, I think that says more about the board than it says about me.

    Nate missed the playoffs his first three years coaching the Blazers. Had the game passed him by? If so, we waited three and a half years too long to fire him, right?

    Actually is says a LOT about you. You dislike the former Blazers coach that led this franchise to the finals twice, but like the former coach that never got past the first round. Of course many posters here have fond memories of Rick Adelman and the success he brought this organization. How long have you been a Blazers fan? Do you not remember those Adelman coached teams that went to the finals twice?

    So, to be consistent, when Nate takes a job coaching another NBA team, are you suddenly going to start hating on him at every opportunity?

    I loved Adelman when he was coaching the Blazers. That doesn't mean I have to think he's a good coach these days, and it's not like he won a title for Portland.

    You have to start wondering about how many more years ZBO's knees have left in them. He's coming off of the bench now at about 15-20 mpg, and it makes my knees hurt watching him hobble up and down the court. I won't be surprised if he ends up having to pull a "Roy" and hang up the sneakers within a year or so.

    Super Coach and Mr. MVP lose another one at home. This one to the Warriors. Funny how the Minnesota posts have slowed to a crawl. David Lee clowned Mr. MVP tonight.

    Durant is so, so good. God, it's torture watching him, but I can't help liking his game.

    Yeah. David Lee completely outplayed Mr. MVP at the PF spot.

    What, you're saying that because Love can't defend his position, that he didn't get outplayed? I know you're the biggest Love fanboi out there, but he's proving yet again that's he's little more than a Stat Beast. Maybe they can add yet another Top 5 pick and still suck next year?

    Oh, I saw it. David Lee looked like the better player. Love is a Stat Beast who doesn't lead his team to crap, and doesn't make his teammates better.

    You didn't watch it, its okay. If you watched it you would realize that GS went small and Lee played C much of the game.

    Love DRtg: 103
    Aldridge DRtg: 105

    Just sayin. :dunno:
