    Don't know how many more times I can see Stotts coach. He literally is stupid.

    Tough shot. Ballgame. Denver are legit. Wish we would have executed better. Those early fouls totally bungled Nurk's game.

    Gonna sounds weird, but they should've put Meyers in there as a 3 point threat and a screener. Would've made more sense than having Nurkic in there.

    Props to the Nuggets. 5 games in 7 nights and they gut it out. Jokic completely outclassed Nurk and that was too much for everyone else to make up for.

    This teams deserves better than that. And the worse thing is, Blazer fans outside this board will be claiming how lucky we are to have "such a wonderful coach like Terry Stotts."

    Love Nurk but his old self surfaced in the second half there. He played selfishly and it was painfully obvious that this game was personal to him. He took 4 or 5 awful shots down the stretch, and also had a really bad TO.

    lol trying to find sense in Terry's coaching. That thought never entered his mind because all he thinks in that situation is "Dame go get the ball and make a shot."

    Jokic wasn't even Denver's best player, it was Stotts

    He was in foul trouble. He doesn't know how to play in foul trouble. It throws him off.

    The whole league knows this team better than Stotts.

    I wish my rootbeer was a Jack Daniels. And I don't even drink.

    And us shooting ourselves in the foot. And Jokic having a career game. We lost that game.
