    I wonder if they want Mo Williams? The Blazers need to bench in for Earl Watson.

    Fun fact: LMA has 9,999 points. It would have been great if that was his 10,001 point at the end!

    I think having a center that plays the pick and roll well would help this team immensely. I don't think there's much that could have been done about Bosh. The dude was like four feet behind the line. I never would have guessed that he was going to take/make that shot.

    Adding a really good defensive center like Asik would help keep us out of a situation where we NEED to play defense with 7 seconds left.

    No need to really freak out over losing a game to the Heat, they are a good team even without LeBron. If Wade makes half of the shots he took in the second half we lose this game by 12 pts. The Blazers are going to lose another game before the playoffs so....no need to blow up the team tomorrow or fire the coach

    CJ needs to hurry up and come back. Our bench scoring is still horrible.

    Troll! Just because they are bottom 3 in the league doesn't mean you can comment on it. You aren't a real Blazer fan. :ghoti:

    Wow. Take it easy Trek-ee. I like reading most of your opinions, and responses that say "I actually read and understood what you wrote." Don't push your "dumb luck"!

    But we really need to blow up the team and fire the coach.

    Don't need to say it. The box score speaks for itself.

    Miami bench: 34

    Blazer bench: 18

    Yep. We got the bad bench tonight. Wright with multiple misses (two airballs iirc), Mo with possibly his lowest moment as an NBA player tripping over the ball (though Bosh just falling over later on was hilarious too). Too few players in the bench rotation to afford such streaky shooters. We need someone consistent, be he slasher or bomber.

    Your fascination with my posts is flattering.... :wub: Nice shot but Lillard. Tonight the odds caught up and the buzzer beater at the rim didn't go in. No worries.

    I think you mean "guards and wings off the bench", b/c the Near-'Nilla Gorillas were 5-9, 11pt/17reb/1ast in 24 minutes, with good D, 3 PFs and 1 TO combined.

    Can't ask for much more from your bench bigs.

    Totally; it's not them at all, it's the short half of the bench lineup. I'd much rather see CJ and Crabbe than Bad Wright and Bad Mo.
