    I can't believe you complain that our new announcers are not Portland enough when you say shot like this. Do you not get this fanbase and how much we get behind our team when we get screwed over?

    He's right. Move on ad play better with a 21 point lead at home

    Yes, the refs blew it. Like they have blown it in the past and will in the future. We have benefited from bad or non calls too. It happens

    This. Ultimately, I can get past one blown call at the end of OT. But....we wouldn't have been in OT in the first place if it weren't for blowing a 21 point lead.

    This team blows leads like it's going out of style, and I'm sure we're all beyond sick of it.

    Your shit gets tiring but hey it is what it is. That's more than a blown foul call, but you wanna try and relate the two. Yeah great logic

    If you blow a 21 point lead at home, you don't get to blame the refs. Period.

    So my "shit" of saying things like we have benefited from last second blunders by the refs is false?

    I hate when Bill Simmons is right about our fan base

    So people can't be mad at a blown call by the refs because the Blazers blew a 21pt lead?

    Not saying that. The whole game thread you constantly bitch about Dame and the team in this "yup I told you so" way but a blown foul call is WAY different than a guy clearly stepping out of bounds followed by one of those missed foul calls. So we got fucked twice there in about 30 seconds.

    That blown call wouldn't have mattered if we didn't blow the lead in the first place. Which this team seems to have perfected into an art form.

    That's what I am getting on twitter and here. I absolutely can't be mad we lost this game on that call because we blew a 21 point lead. Well that's the beauty of the game you see, a team comes back, we fight back, the game is close and is ruined on that call. People don't wanna see that they came back and we looked like we were done at the end of the 4th but we fought back. The wiz blew that lead. Tied it up, OT. Sports fans are just idiots
