    Looks like I made the correct decision last night, went to bed soon as it went to OT.

    My final thought was, perhaps if Nurkic were in the game Millsap gets blocked at rim to end the game in regulation.

    Here's to hoping (he becomes that rim protector we desperately need)!

    :cheers:

    Can someone make a new hate thread for Allen Fucking Crabbe. He played 31 minutes last night and only took 5 shots. He's being paid 18 mil per year to be a scorer on this team.

    Great news! We are only two games up on Minnesota. If we keep up the losing we will be in top 5 pick territory in no time!

    If we keep laying Meyers Leonard we'll be there as well.

    My only issue with the lotto is, the lack of what Portland needs in it. I guess there are decent SF's, but Im not sure they are franchise changing.

    Draft a guard and push for cj for cousins in the offseason then if you feel a sf isnt worth it.

    2 games out of the #8 Playoff seed....2 games away from having the #5 pick in the NBA Lottery. The race for #8 is a complete joke!

    Looks like you are literally going to have to take one for the team.

    Or give one, it's up to you on how you want to lay Meyers.

    Don't worry, it was still faster than his shot release.

    What I enjoyed most about last night's game: Aminu hit his 3s, but then found a few ways to ensure a loss at the end! Increase trade value AND draft position? Win/win!!

    These past few games have certainly encapsulated the character of this year's Blazers team: close, but ultimately no cigar. Where last year the team seemed more often than not able to find a way to win the close games, this year, they find new and inventive ways to kick them away. I find myself finding new and inventive ways to cuss them out.

    Having finally given up on the idea that the season can be salvaged - I enjoyed this game a lot more than usual. I choose to look at it as a win-win situation. If they win - huzzah, if they do not, I hope the Centurion becomes an Abrahms.

    At this point I am still pissed when we lose, but the turnaround time for being upset is extremely short knowing that in the end we can benefit from the loss. I don't mind a short tank, it is the 3+ year horror scenarios that I think are tough to recover from.

    The cats and I fell asleep at about the 3 minute mark - sorry, past my bedtime. I was so pissed, until I looked up the score this morning.

    Strategic sleepiness.
    (yes, those cats in my avatar, are they cute or what?)

    So sad that the new NBA agreement didn't have an amnesty clause.
