    This was all about our horrible O. Our D was just fine in this game (like most, if not all the season). You can't win very often when 3 of your top 7 players shoot a combined less than 30% from the field.

    come on man aminu played great defense on that last possession. Nothing could have been done. Too many late game errors cost us mainly that of nurkic.

    Fun finish. Lost a sixteen point lead to a team missing its best player. Shows you where the Blazers are right now.

    Yep. I will never understand that. Ed would've been a better defender against him.

    At least we were missing Dame there. We just played the Celtics B-squad with our full team, had a 16-point halftime lead, and lost. Now we'll get the scheduled loss in Detroit tomorrow, and be right back in the shitter.

    I think we all knew where the Blazers were regardless of this game .Middle of the road team, potential to go the second round of playoffs but not any further. Olshey has to figure out how to solve this roster conundrum and at this point I'm not sure he can. Should be gone after this season.

    Fitting that it ends with Aminu on Horford.

    Starters 26/81, 32%. That's tough to overcome if you aren't on the road against the best team in the East. And they needed a fallaway buzzer beater.

    I'll keep saying it, though...BOS without Kyrie thinking he's The Man (TM) is dangerous.

    Do you know who the Atlanta Hawks are? Even full strength they wouldn't be the Celtics B-squad.

    Name a Blazer who could have defended that last shot any better.
