    I heard he had a late doctor’s appointment. Something about getting his hearing checked.

    That’s so Meyers. :cool:

    You could not sum him up with a picture any better if you tried.

    Morning!

    Kanter didn't play well, we still beat them. Says a lot. Harkless and Aminu defense is what making this team so good, that sequence when thoose two steal the ball from PG twice in a row was says everything.

    Curry was solid, Hood can be better, he wasn't confident with 3s. Gameplan in 2nd half was terrific, letting them shot 3s and making PG pass the ball. Can't wait for game 3.

    Nice win. Would love to get one in OKC. This will shock some gere, but I'm still nervous about the series

    Neither snow nor rain nor dark of night

    Neither Westbrook nor Foster nor Colin Cowshit

    Can stop the Blazers from delivering

    I really hope we don't tank it in OKC, but we flat out look like the better team.

    I'm wondering if we should offer him the tax MLE before Kanter?

    Proud of what Kanter beings but hell, Meyers played decent in a big playoff game (can't believe I'm saying this)

    There are lots of centers available for the vet minimum that can come close to this productivity.

    Having a Curry on the team that shoots 45% from three is not as easy to replace!

    Ray Allen on ESPN looking very spiffy in pin striped three piece suit, singing the praises of Dame.

    Marcin Gortat might be an interesting option as a placeholder for next season.

    He looks distressed by my suggestion. Like he's saying, "You want Marcin? But what about me??"

    I loved how we continued to boo Donut Felton all game and started cheering when Ant had a chance at scoring on him!

    Credit to Rodney on that one, cleared everyone out and called for Simons to iso at the top of the key. He's a good vet. Just wish he could consistently hit an open shot.

    I'm serious when i say this. This team does not want to lose Curry. It's the dagger they have been needing for two years now.

    My Dad and I were laughing about that during the game. He's got to be the #1 most despised player for your average Blazer fan. I'm still waiting for him to drop 50 on us. Still..... Lol
