    Damn King!

    Well to be positive we have Nurk for years to come and this summer will be really fun to talk about the upcoming season and the endless possibilities.

    It still shocks me that Denver is so good. How do they win in Miami AND then go on to beat NO? Jokic might really be special to pull that gutter team into the playoffs like that.

    @KingSpeed This is the first time in my life i see you, just you be negative or realist. Calm down! Im very negative most of the times, and im with you, im very worried right now...
    The thing is, denver have to lost for the rockets tonight. THEY HAVE! Our number magic is 4, my friend. If they lose count down to 3, and twomorrow we have to win with a denver win or L. Its now time for our leader show up and lead us to the playoffs. I Still believe, and im still thinking we can make... its gonna be very very hard, but we have to support the rockets tonight.

    always ripcity

    It's nobodys fault really. In order for the human body to survive you need a partially working lung, brain, heart, kidney.... etc. Without a center like Nurkic, the Blazers doesn't work. I mean look at our talent drop off after the big three.... Shooomp! It's sad because the team was much was playing better than it had all season for a few weeks. I can't state how crucial this offseason to bridging that talent gap.

    We're done. I really think it's for the best as well. Nurk isn't going to play in the playoffs no matter what people are saying. Let's get him healthy and make a run from the start of the season next year.

    Ha, so sad that being a Blazer fan means trying to reverse jinx the universe.

    I'm hoping the opposite is true. Nurk may even play the next 3 games, but they were trying to hold him out until the playoffs.

    We don't have a Center right now and our team hasn't been really connected the entire season. Maybe we don't deserve to make the playoffs this year, the Nuggets overacheiving are more worthy of us in a subpar season. There's still a chance but the fact we're all so pessimistic tells us something about this season. It's not all our (or the players) fault anyway. We have 3 centers injured. If we don't make the playoffs then take the summer to regroup and come back stronger next season

    We will be in the playoffs. We might get there on the tie breaker we own, but we will get there....we've got our last four at home, and I think we can beat Minnesota tommorow and NOP for sure. Utah and San Antonio are the question marks, but if San Antonio rests it's starters that could be 3....

    I think Denver will have a chore beating Houston in houston, then two against the triple double machine in Westbrook, I like our odds. I'm not packing my bags for the summer yet. Hell no

    I've seen Kingspeed give up on the team a few years ago....he actually quit the forum for 4 hours once.....this is not a first but rather a rare KS thread...!
