    Getting out coached by Alvin “How The Hell Is This Guy Even In The League” Gentry speaks volumes......

    Fortunately game three is on NBA TV, I don't have it, so won't be able to waste my time watching it.

    Can’t blame Dame for this... he’s 6’3 facing constant doubles and triples inside...

    Not that he is doing anything different than other coaches have done against Portland in playoffs.

    Dame has horrible career playoff numbers. He made one big shot, that happened to be very lucky. People forget Aldridge carried us that series. Dame has never been consistently great in the playoffs, he hasn't even been consistently good.

    Work their butts off to get homecourt and blow the first two games. That's so Blazers.

    How? by making Holliday and Rondo lock up Damian, and making the Pels win all of the fifty-fifty balls? gimme a break.

    Dame is fine but ain’t nobody coming to this team to help us out if the first round. Best trade the 28 year old cohort, tank and build around Zach.

    CJ and Nurk are shitting the bed. Especially CJ. They aren't clamping down on him at all. 22 points on 21 shots, and he's getting good looks. He's just choking his ass off.
