    No I wasn't. Did you really think we'd win this game when you heard Aldridge was out?

    Golden State tonight without their best player lost to the lowly Pacers..we weren't the only ones. Wonder if their fans bailed on them after the loss?

    They also didnt get boatraced by the Jazz just last game. And GS has had impressive win after impressive win. Yet the Blazers cant seem to beat anyone good, consistently.

    Yes you were. And a lie to yourself is worth a lie to us. And of course I thought we would win. We had the game. The Kersey mojo was a big reason. Every player and coach believes we win this game after the 3rd but apparently you don't? Nice try.

    Just answer me this: Have we even beat Memphis this year WITH Aldridge? A simple yes or no will suffice.

    If we win the next two, we're 38-19 with wins against good teams. Firmly in 4th place. 6-3 in February. Look towards then and hope Aldridge is ok.

    EXACTLY!! No. If we struggled against Memphis WITH Aldridge, why did you expect to win without him?

    He's still a big body vet. Perkins will help Cleveland the same way that Dally would help here.

    Not lying. I was expecting to lose WITH Aldridge because we were adding a new player against a great team that is clicking. Once I heard Aldridge was out, I knew winning was a pipe dream. Even with us up double digits, I knew they would get back into it and beat us.

    Did their fanbase freak out by the loss tonight? Did their version of JK25 just pass away and did they lose 3 teammates and add two new ones this week? These are not fair comparisons. Two top rated teams lost tonight. That's the point. Both missing their star. The Jazz and Grizz fucking beat us. I've been a fan long enough to weather these storms. The thread meltdowns are tougher than the losses.

    Also to add to the fuel of Stotts being a shitty coach. How can a player go from starting (when an injury has taken a certain someone out for games) and doing a damn good job in hitting outside shots and playing defense to not even seeing the court. You all know who I am talking about.

    I do have faith in the team. But they need to be healthy and need time to jell if they're gonna beat playoff teams. I think, when healthy, we can win the championship.

    Thabeet can't play worth jack though. Dalembert actually started 7 playoff games last season with the Mavs. He is a lot better player.

    I just saw the poll. Maybe it is just me but I laughed hard seeing Wright in the poll as most athletic Blazer.

    Unfortunately, this franchise hasn't weathered a storm since 2000 - this is not a one-off choke job. This is just like last season - get off to a great start in November/December, than crash back into the pack and go meekly into the night.

    I can't read those fucking green fonts...60 year old peepers of mine..old school sarcasm exists in the content. As if I'd call Thabeet better than Dalembert. I would say Thabeet is cheaper than Dalembert and neither would make a spec of dust of difference on the roster
