    Yeah. His roations were awful tonight. Beibs (Yes, Leonard) did fine, then no more playing time. How can any bench players feel like they can produce and get solid minutes if the only way to get ANY minutes is by an unfortunate injury or being on a b2b? Ugggh. Stotts is just not going to cut it at the 'next level'. (Past 2nd round, etc.) As the head coach, he can't, at least. I hope he proves me wrong, but there are strong doubts.

    By the way, I heard Beibs started because it was a B2B.

    Oh No Don't say the Knicks or Sixers I live in the midst of these two franchises and they are far worse off then the Blazers. I agree the team lost its balanced scoring and can't finish at the end. Apparant;y Batum is the whipped prisoner lately. What a bashing !

    If you have the creeps from the losing streak of 8 of 10, don't feel bad the Spurs (World Champs) have less wins then we do Since we beat the Wizards they are 31-17 as well

    Stotts is a good coach, but his rotations are abysmal. Leonard has been playing well lately, earns the start, and only logs seven minutes? Why do players like Wright and Barton only get time in the second-half? It seems like he's throwing anything at the wall and seeing if it sticks ... which I guess happens when you lose 8 of 10. But I feel like he's had these poor rotations his entire stay in Portland.

    Our bench may not be the most productive, but the inconsistent playing time for the second unit (aside from Blake and Kaman) won't make anyone better. Pick a fucking rotation and stick with it. Lastly, what the hell is up with Allen Crabbe's playing time? It's like he either starts or sits ... I just don't get it.

    Rotation is vital. Many people do not realize player chemistry and roles are integrated into a game. You know..

    > Blake/Kaman makes sense. Both guys are Basketballers not GQ material. even tuxedos could not improve their looks However, Defense and timely threes are what we really need.
