    What an emotional legendary night for Blazers fans last night. A star is born at the center position. What an incredible performance.

    Yes. Last night the 76ers took us to OT on our home court. That really happened

    Yeah. Exactly. Legendary games don't usually involve a team taking us to OT that is not anywhere close to a playoff shot.

    It was a great individual performance by Nurk, no doubt. I love the guy, but that game was a piece of shit and we barely made it out of there with a win.

    It was a legendary shitty game, I guess.

    Dame missed a lot of open looks. Game would not have been close if he didn't shoot so poorly.

    @KingSpeed

    I am wioth you.. some poeple just dont get it.

    You never said it was a great win for the team. But yet some people just need to spread their negative vibe and try to spoil your excitement. well to you I say fuckem'
    Keep being you and don't let these guys bring you down with their negative jabs. :)

    Best performance from a Blazer center ever no?
    did Walton or Sab ever have a stat line for a game like this?

    And the Warriors needed magical comeback to beat Sixers by 2 on their home court.

    And one team doesn't give a fuck about 1st or 2nd seed, and the other is scratching and clawing for a playoff spot....AND just got its ass handed to them by a pathetic Pelicans team

    If we beat the Spurs tonight, which game defines the season? Tonight's win or yesterday's loss?

    And the Warriors looked like they gave a fuck. Draymond was celebrating like they won the championship.

    Great question.

    My answer is neither. Our overall losing record has defined this season. Winning tonight would be as great as losing yesterday was as embarrassing.

    Good point. Losing record is a losing record.

    I just believe we're better than our record though. Like 2007 Warriors were after picking up Stephen Jackson.

    We may be now with Nurkic, but I think our record is a good indicator of our team. Last year we weren't as good as our record....IMO

    I question that. We were two games above .500. I think that is pretty much right where we are at. Middle of the pack. I think you mean how we closed the season out? If so, I totally agree.
