    But Stotts won't stand up and get them to call it because he's a soft ass MFer.

    It's pathetic. He's the worst coach at responding to adversity in terms of timely timeout calls, knowing when to get on the refs, and making adjustments.

    It's the same reason why the team folds under adversity and gives up 20-4 runs.

    We need a new coach.

    I feel like as long as he keeps getting us the 7th/8th seed in an underachieving effort.. our GM won’t do anything about it.

    There are 2 anchors (contracts) on this team, that are all but untradeable (Meyers and Turner).

    And the players that are tradeable due to their contracts ending (Aminu and Ed Davis) aren't worth much on the open market.

    The young players who might be tradeable (Vonleh and Harkless) both aren't going to get much back.

    There's not a lot that can be done to fix this team.

    It's nice to hear the familiar New York twang of colorman Hubie Brown. His voice is now fading, but he is quite neutral, praising Blazers as much as Wolves. (Calabro critics, take notice and shut up.)

    Several times, Hubie has praised the defense of Connaughton against Wiggins. And after Napier kept doing good things he said, where has he been the last 3 years? (My answer: Stotts and Olshey fixate on pigeonholed players' roles).

    The results may not always be positive for the Blazers, but Aminu is a master of making basketball exciting!

    "Like a lost freight train" - most apt description of an Aminu Drive.

    Glad to see Stotts didn't have an impact on the team at halftime.

    I know the wolves are a good team but man, I wouldn't be opposed to getting a lottery pick this year if it happens. This team is so up and down and the roster is obviously unbalanced and all over the place. Just frustrating as a fan
