    The worst 3P % game with at least 10 shots was 25% this year. We are going to be WELL below that at 21.2% if we don't hit another 3.

    I firmly believe one day will be the first NBA team to give up a 3-0 playoff series lead and lose. Not sure when but one day.

    We just look lost. Having so few shots go down has given us zero confidence especially down the stretch.

    Home Court advantage or Not, this team will lose in the first round. They peak too soon.

    I would absolutely love if he went off on this team. They need a kick in the ass.

    Dame should have stayed home with his baby ... why go on an 0-4 trip?

    Wasn’t Malone a candidate when we hired Stotts? I’m pretty sure I liked what I read about him more than what was written about Stotts. I never liked Stotts from day 1

    4 game losing streak, possibly 5 game with a loss to Utah going into the playoffs while every west playoff team is on a win streak, winning very important games. I don't feel good with this squad going into the playoffs. Not even with Moe back. Something is off.

    And we don't know when to stop shooting them and attack.

    The game turned after the technical on Denver in the 3rd. They went on a 12-2 run while Malone worked the refs. Of course the pathetic shooting by the whole Blazer team did not help.

    Nope. Team can't stay focused. Any bit of success will breed complacency. I hate the mental makeup of this team.

    Math isn't Stotts' specialty. Neither is coaching tonight apparently.

    So much wrong with this team. Dame had a rough night but he isnt even close to an issue. Either is Nurk. Davis is still as solid as ever. Rest of the team sucks balls.
