    Sickening. Just sickening. I have a friend who was a Blazer fan from the time I met him but now he "always has repped the Bay"

    C'mon dude, you're smarter than this.

    Using select averages, you can make Mo Williams look like a really good player. Look at his entire game, and you see his flaws. Factor in his wild inconsistency and you start wondering why he wasn't smothered in his cradle.

    Aminu busts his butt on defense, but he is NOT a reliable scorer. His catch-and-shoot game is very inconsistent - particularly for how many wide open shots he gets. When he puts the ball on the floor, the results are often cover-your-eyes bad.

    It's fine to value high-motor guys. Hell, I often said I would rather have T-Rob on the floor than Leonard. The catch is, you can't build an entire roster out of guys like that. You can win a title with one guy like Aminu or Plums in the starting line-up....not 3. That is the goal, right? Win a title?

    Aminu has improved on putting the ball on the floor in the playoffs.

    his lateral quickness looked like shit before game 3 when he was doing his 2 on 2 scrimage. they are going to rush him back game 5 when we have all the momentum and he's going to end up out for the season from a CJ cross over. then draymond will get a heavy flow and have to go get his vagina cauterized. blazers in 6

    They might say that if they even know who that was. Which I doubt.

    Difference between Green's three point shooting and Dame's: Green was WIDE open on every shot; meanwhile Dame's shots were degree of difficulty 10/10.

    Amazing performance by Dame.

    We've got a few fans, myself included, who are fans of other Bay Area teams. I have been a Niner fan since I was 12. I actually really liked the Warriors when they had Arenas/JRich/'Jamison. Run TMC was really before I got into basketball. Unfortunately I really don't like the Warriors now. I like Curry, but Klay is a spoiled brat and Draymond is..... a throwback. I love that I hate him.

    Draymond Green: a classic "I hate that SOB and wish he was on my team" player.

    Make sure you save a picture of him in his Warriors gear for when the Blazers win another championship.

    There's plenty of those.... but when was the last time a guy was this good at defense and this arrogant? Rodman? Artest?

    God I hope not they'd have been comatose by the third quarter.
