    0-4 trip? Maybe if we're at 18-28 then we'll blow it up.

    Gonna be years before there's a fun Blazer season.

    That's weird... I just had a missed call from Washington DC and I don't know anyone from that area. I wonder if the Blazers are making personal phone calls to apologize.

    On a positive note, PSVue on my Roku keeps cutting in and out, so I can barely watch this shit-show. Maybe it's reading my mind?

    When I watch I can't believe how often our players just randomly decide to stop guarding the guy with the ball, or just completely lose sight of their player, or completely overreact to a simple head fake on the perimeter, or try to help on defense when it's not needed thus leaving their guy wide open for a three pointer, or when they luck out and the guy misses the wide open shot they also fail to box out. This is stuff you'd be embarrassed about in college much less the NBA.

    Hopefully they get all of this out of their system today.

    We have been staying one win ahead of our last season's record. But after this game at 18-25, we will be tied with the team which had all new players to break in after losing 4 of 5 starters. This year we have no such excuse.

    Hope we're embarrassed, but probably not

    Wall uncontested down entire floor before jamming it on Plumlee who was covering his face with two hands scared the ball would deflect and hit him after going through the net.

    This team can't even compete. Just flat out embarrassing.

    If you really can't see any difference between how they played defense in the Laker and Cleveland games compared to tonight then you're as clueless as they are.
