    Sean Elliot wasn't out of bounds, he made one of the greatest shots in history. Right now they don't need much miracles against us, we should toughen up and start winning.

    It is vital that the Blazers improve on this years record and team. Adding a bench scorer (or two) should be the #1 goal. and the #1a goal should be actually playing defense. Just "oh hey, my guy is over there and just drove past me oh shit he scored" defense either.

    This is quite a bit different. I expect them to get hot and win a game at home for the fans. But...they really, REALLY need to tune it up. Spurs as old as they are, are running circles around Portland. And it shouldn't be the case.

    How come all of our players can't be hot in the same game? This game it was Nico and Wes who were hot, but LMA was just cold as heck. We could probably steal both of honest two games if everyone is hot.

    If we can win both at home, then we have a shot. But I just don't see sas losing a home game this series.

    If Portland can win both home games, they then start to believe again. Just believing has massive effects on you. it did in the Houston series.

    San Antonio has no real answer for LeBron. He figured out the Spurs in the last two games of the finals.

    That's the thing... Our confidence is shot, especially Aldridge.

    We are outgunned, outclassed, outbenched, outstartered. There is no aspect of the team that we are even equal to them. We are defeatist because we are defeated.

    Go vent to the clutchfans board. They might still think they can win.

    Yep. But the crowd can be loud as they want. If the players don't start believing. And walking and presenting themselves that way on the court. It doens't matter. Even early on tonight, just looking at them. I felt they were in trouble.

    Playing the Spurs in the second round is like boot camp for next year's playoffs. Painful, but necessary training.

    Booya!!

    Exactly... Let's our team know we need to grow and get better. Either it be in this series, cause we still have a shot, or looking into the summer.

    This might be the series where the players start to question Stotts a little bit

    The players know their defensive game plan is shit. Letting Parker roam the middle with no pressure is just fucking absurd.
