    Well that sucked. Blazers shooting threes when they are tired.
    I have always felt when you know a team is tired change the game plan a bit. 3 point shooting was never gonna win that game when you are on the 5th in 7 days with a B2B on both ends of those 7 days.

    My Olshey dislike has peaked momentarily. Just wanted to express that in here before I start picking fights out there. I wish I were kidding.

    That's it...Yes.... Let the Dark side of the Meltdown Thread feed your anger. Soon your little rebellion will be destroyed and Olshey will control the Blazer Universe completely.

    This "Human Condition" thing could spoil everything?
    I must find a way to impose my will on the game threads!

    That game was the 5th in 8 days. They were coming off a east coast swing then a B2B going back home. Essentially in the words of Pop "That is another road game". This is when he usually sits his starters and plays the role players.
    They came out and could not score. Shots were flat and hitting the front of the rim. Players were slow to react and transition was non existent.
    As usual half the forum went total "Blow the Team Up!" because they had a bad game.
    Watch what happens when they put it together against the Warriors. Win or lose the Blazers will play a much better game!

    Not to be rude, kj, but i was under the impression that this was a meltdown thread and therefore not a place for fucking unicorns and rainbows and optimism.
