    Uhhh... how about hitting more than 3 shots in the 4th? I don't know. Common sense. I understand you wanting to try to lessen the blow by irrationality, but the reality is we had this game. There's NO excuse for giving up a 13 point lead in the 4th to ANY team.

    We fucking traded for a player that can create his own shot, and instead of utilizing him, we gave ISO's to Kaman and Blake...

    Memphis is a beast on defense..best in the world actually..they made everything tough when it counted. They won this game with defense and wore us down at the end. Get the next one! Go Blazers!

    As they are playing now, they aren't even good enough to be a playoff team in the West.

    When Beibs went down to the baseline and Wes was calling for him... he just camped his ass there. Fucking ruined it. Biggest mistake he made all game, and it was huge.

    Think the debate is over about Portlands best player, LMA.

    If the Blazers lose this division lead to the Thunder, they may as well turn their testicles in.....

    We aren't a championship team without Aldridge.

    So frustrating, especially considering we finally got them into the penalty in the fourth.

    During the game, it changed. Stop trying to come off all "oh, excuses this, excuses that." That game was ours. And you know it. I know you know it. Everyone knew it. Now, if we lost wire to wire, that'd be a different story. but TWICE we had double digit leads, and lost. That's not because of lack of personnel, that's because we suck at closing games out. With or without LA.

    We have a 6 game lead. We're fine as long as Aldridge is okay and comes back next game.

    it isn't even a debate for me. I would gladly trade having Aldridge playing if it meant Dame was out. Aldridge is our MVP, rightfully so. If he leaves us next year will be a fringe playoff team which is the worst type of team.

    Its not that we lost. Its how we lost. We gave them a fucking game that we should have won. Too many of those this season.
