    You guys. It’s easy to blame this player and that player. I don’t blame dame on that last play. He had six seconds to take it cross court, at half court he kinda stumbled, in his head at that point, he didn’t have much time. Had to put it up. CJ shot terribly. I also don’t understand why Collins wasn’t in but hey whatever I guess. Biggest issue was defense, switches. Leaving Beal open to tie should of never happened. Shit I would leave wall at that point and give him an open three other than wall. They got a lot of open looks. Blazers shot like shit this game, it’s amazing we were even in it all game. It is what it is. 3rd game of an 82 game season. Chill. Just take joy in the fact the lakers are about to lose to the spurs and start off 0 and 3. If we shot even a little better, that game is ours. Bench is way better than last season. CJ was off. Dame was even off despite being able to do other things and get to the line. Anyways, chiiiillllll

    I thought you were talking all game but your talking about the end of the game. I posted I didn't like the shot, nurk was wide open rolling to the rim behind him and he was having to put it up over 3 people.

    Collins is MADE for defending small ball lineups and would’ve offered the same mismatches on the other end that Nurk did. Stupid coaching tonight.

    We were all screaming it. "Moe for nurk? WHAT?" It made zero sense.

    Btw, good to see you back man, if even for just a game thread. :cheers:

    The positive Aminu Nurk Nik had big game. We will continue to be up down all year. Reasons Dame and CJ going get there shots up know matter what hot or cold. Dame is not as bad as CJ due to he find others ways to score. Stotts doesn't coach well in close game never have never will.

    On the bright side, Wiz played a lot better than we did overall and we were still in it to the end.

    20 turnovers, at least 2 crucial mental mistakes that could have won the game, horrific 3pt shooting, several and 1 not called, several bank shots did fall for them.......1 point loss. We are better than last year.

    No it's not. Just go under the screen since it's Wall. Nurk was being fucking lazy.

    And yet, he's done this countless times, and all the other team has to do is pack the paint with 3 or 4 guys. You're not making a basket against that.

    STOTTS should know this by now......but no, it keeps happening. Watch it happen again sometime this season against another team. Or two. Or three.

    Stotts and CJ both need to fucking GO. But with Paul Allen gone, I'm not sure that's going to happen any time soon.
