Though he's not 100% healthy, Lillard says he plans to play this game. Should Dame play?

    You can only survive that when you have another superstar. Dame is only one right now on this team. So key role player injuries hurt more.

    I've never thought Ed was unimportant, and I really like the guy and want to keep him here.

    But two role players out = we look like a 20 win team.......is not encouraging about where we are roster-wise.

    Well that sucks. On to the next game. Hopefully we can get a win at the mile high club. Davis will be back.

    Even though he shot 50% from 3, I still think he should've attacked the rim a bit more. Get to the line.

    We lost to the 2 of the worst teams in the NBA (Dallas , Memphis) ... let that sink in.

    Yes because relying on San Antonio fouling is a great strategy.

    This last week of the season is going to make me vomit with some of the teams I have to root for especially with the Blazers seemingly unwilling to do it themselves

    Even if we do, we're not gonna beat Houston.

    I want us to make it to round 2, but let's be realistic here.

    Brooke actually addressed that issue. Dame is hurt. He was not going to drive like he usually does.
    Lillard was playing hurt. No reason for it but they let it happen.

    He’s proven us wrong so many times, but I still wonder what kinda return CJ could get us. With Nurk playing the way he has lately he could legitimately be a go to #2 option in the coming years.. letting CJ go for the right wing player and some good bench pieces would be a fun alternative reality to watch and see what the team would be like.

    You don't have to really. If we beat Utah at home, we are 3 seed and nothing else matters.

    Do we win if Dame doesn’t play?

    That probably won’t happen so best not to rely on it.
