    He played, he just played very poorly. Still wasn’t even his worst game of the last month. He’s a shell of himself and probably hurts that team more than he helps.

    I don't think the Spurs make the playoffs.

    Everyone still think he would have helped our team?

    Stotts and Dame would've gotten more out of Melo than Donovan and Russ.

    Yes, but we shouldn't sit here rooting for games as if we're locked into the 3 seed

    We have a 1.5 cushion and control our own destiny. I'm going to cheer as if we are going to achieve our goal.

    Same, but you always have to be realistic. Just as likely we could be a 4 as a 3.

    Man how many free agents now have claimed "Portland was my next choice"? And they're all sitting below us in the standings now. I hope some guys are paying attention. This year could be a big game changer when it comes to us attracting FAs. We're even getting some media attention.

    That's a brutal closing schedule for a team on life support. Kawhi better come back in top form for them to have more of a chance than hoping one or two other teams fall on their faces.

    He didn't look anything near the old Kwahi earlier in the year when they tried to play him. He couldn't play back-to-backs then, so I assume they will likely do the same this month.

    I still think they make the playoffs and hang on to the 7th seed. They will be an easy 4-0 for the Warriors of Rockets.
