    Thanks for the heads up. Forgot about that channel. Turned off TV when TNT started talking about the other series. LOL

    That's the regular season, this is the playoffs. You guys came incredibly close to getting bounced in this round. You won't get past SA/OKC, mark my words.

    CJ looks pissed talking about moral victories. "There is no trophy given for competing and losing."

    DAMN.

    There may be no trophy for losing, but sometimes you need to lose in order to learn what you have to work on in order to win. Experience is a real thing.

    4-1 in a series isn't incredibly close. It was a fun series, but you gotta play all 4 quarters down to the wire, not just 3 3/4. If it's OKC, not worried at all since we swept them. If it's San Antonio, we've beaten them at home and we have home court advantage. Outta be a good division final.

    Plums also talking about wishing he could come in to practice tomorrow.

    God. This team, man. We're not gonna have a team like this every year. Gotta enjoy this process.

    Thanks for a great series Blazers. Good luck next year and hopefully they'll be there again. Onto the San Antonio/OKC forum next.

    His opening statement was more optimistic but equally measured.

    "We showed that we're a good team, but we've got a little ways to go to become an elite team."

    My biggest disappointment this postseason was Gerald Henderson. He really turned it up during the second half of the season. His mid-range jumpshot was smooth and a reliable source of offense when we couldn't get anything going from the bench. Also was a good candidate to drive to the basket for a momentum shifting dunk. Didn't really see any of that.

    Yeah and out of those 4 wins 3 were extremely tight affairs. You cannot just look at the final result of series and take assumptions from there. Blazers matched you in all but 1 games and this was a Blazers team with close to zero experience. Add some more years to the team and I guarantee they don't drop those leads in Game 2 and 4 and they keep more composure in the final minute of 5.

    They will be giving Blazers credit. They made them sweat for it and properly sweat.
