    Wow this Blazers team is trash this year

    All it took was that NO timeout to get them shook again. No heart and desire on this team

    What system would he do better in? With Stotts he's not expected to do anything but shoot 3s, which is all he wants to do anyway.

    2 steals and 0 blocks with 4 minutes to go in the 3rd.....wow. You almost have to try not to get at least a few more of those.

    I turned the game off. I am developing a strong dislike for how this team is being used. It's a combination of Stotts' self-destructive system, passing out to the 3 whenever our player has a close shot, and Olshey's 20-month nap in obtaining better players. The players themselves play as hard as they can; no criticism of them. It's all in management & coaching. I may be watching and posting less until the end of the season. It's just too stressful to observe.
