    LOL. I can see there's going to be no reasoning with you.

    No, he needs to start playing right NOW. Even though we may not have a lot of great shooters, an Aminu or Harkless 3 is much better than a lot of the crap Damian is forcing up.

    Nurkic must be the worst starting center in the league this season

    My favorite expression on any NBA player is when they obviously commit a foul and they look perplexed.

    Make a reasonable statement to start off the conversation. Your premise that Nurkic suddenly can't coordinate his "footwork" because he lost 30 pounds, and that's the reason he looks so much worse than last year is ridiculous.

    CJ came into this game shooting 67% from 3. He was bound to have a half like this eventually.

    Our non-Big "3" is shooting 14 of 19 from the field. 7 of 8 from 3.

    Are you sure you want to call him that? Hurd call him that and we all know how much we hate Hurds nicknames for Blazers.

    That is, imho, the surest sign that a team is not ready to make the move from an average team to a competitive team.

    Until they learn to take every game seriously and play with intensity, they will remain an average team.
