    Are those games the exception or the rule? I'd say the former.

    30 point game.

    Only the Blazers could give a 19 win team a 30 point lead.

    There isn't a more embarrassing team this season than the Portland Trail Blazers.

    Look at the other shitty teams in the NBA, they actually play with pride an effort at least. Lakers play hard, Sixers play their asses off, Suns play really hard. Mavs are improving now that they're healthy.

    I'm starting to think that yeah maybe this team wants to win, but they don't really want to win that bad. They all got paid, teams sort of figured them out after overachieving last season, and maybe they're content with that.

    I guess the exception is them actually giving effort.

    Which is pretty pathetic

    This commercial is completely contrary to what this team shows on the court.

    It's like they're mocking us. They were showing championship footage from '77 earlier.

    Right cuz losses are all that matter to you. When we were playing well in the second half of last season, at one point winning 18 of 22 games, did you praise the team? No. You turned it into a negative and said our play was "an unmitigated disaster" since we would lose our pick.

    That was some great effort boxing out there by our 70 million dollar man Evan Turner.

    This team is burnt toast, we need to make a move ASAP if we are to save the season.

    Well, in hindsight, it was. Everyone on that roster who overachieved got contracts they didn't deserve, we missed out on the lottery, and now we're the most embarrassing product in the NBA relatively.
