    1 assist in the 4th quarter for the Blazers? We gotta stop the hero ball crap in the 4th. We seem to start out the game with great player and ball movement, but as the game closes, we tend to go 1 on 1 and iso.

    Do you fail at basic comprehension and joking on here? Seriously? Do not speak for me. I said it to poke fun at you. I dont care if we win by 1, win by 20, lose by 1, lose by 20 today. It's just one game.

    Look, I am not going to delete your posts, or edit them. But I would really appreciate it if you would not try to speak for me when you are not speaking correctly about me. I do not appreciate that you are doing this, and I would like you to stop. Please honor my request.

    You care more about me being wrong than having your team win. Now I know where you stand. It's all good.

    You're not embarrassed that we choked away a clearly-won game last night, and lost what should have been an easy win against a mediocre Denver team?

    Get your priorities strait. This is the NBA. I expect my team of professionals to win these kinds of games. I'm sorry if you don't.

    cuz Stotts loves to prevent 3 pointers against awful 3 point shooters, which allows them to get downhill against our bigs. It's the dumbest philosophy ever. All you do is go under screens and pack the paint. Make them beat you from the arc. But that's a different defensive scheme, and I guess that's too much for Stotts to handle, and that would take too much time away from perfecting the "flow".

    Not embarrassing. This is the team we have. Dangerous enough to beat good teams every now and then. Inexperienced enough to lose to anyone.

    Exciting team to watch, but it's going to frustrate people expecting 40 wins, let alone a playoff spot. Best thing that could happen, IMO, is to keep playing and growing and lose a lot of close games and get a lottery pick. I know that won't be a popular sentiment, but this team needs a couple of more good players to add to the mix, and hopefully one that is an all-star-level talent, if it's going to compete in the West in the playoffs the next few years.

    It's a process. These losses don't bother me... much.

    But we're a 24 win team. Why was this supposed to be an easy win? All the NBA writers had us 29th in the NBA.

    I told you to honor my request. Please do so.

    You knew exactly what I meant, and prefer to carry on. I am stopping this. I would like you to do so, as well.

    Trouble with lottery picks is we have a ton of them on the roster and yet we're a lottery team. Is one more going to help?

    Last night was pathetic....41-11 is pathetic no matter what. Tonight, we would have won this as a close game if the refs didn't royally fucking up. But it shouldn't have even been close. The nuggets are a bunch of losers.
