    Seth continually makes very smart defensive contributions. Let him shoot

    Feels like the Blazers missed so many wide open shots.

    Nice that we have a lead, but our play from the perimeter is so bad, when they double we just keeping passing to another guy on the perimeter and wait to long to feed the open man under the hoop.

    The biggest issue I have with Stotts offense right now is it relies too much on ball handlers creating something out of nothing as well as our forwards hitting 3s. Sure, it looks good when either of those things happen, but when they dont, Portland has no other answer.

    Every imaginable thing has gone wrong and Blazers still up four at halftime.

    Just wish I wasn't so fucking sick.

    A Blazers win could help. At least I would be happy and sick.

    Aminu really does up his game in playoffs. It's uncanny. So clutch. I have no idea what happened to Turner since those back to back triple doubles.

    Given how badly we’ve played, I have no idea how we have the lead.

    Stotts doesn't attack matchups.

    Westbrick going to see that his stats at halftime show he's chucking shots at a bad rate again and that Dame had more assists. Watch him start passing up good shots so he can hunt for his triple double stats lol.

    If Evan Turner even sniffs the court this half, I'm gonna fly out to Portland for game 5 and tie his arms and legs to the bench before Terry can put him in next game.

    I am tired of people getting on Dame -- to those people you do realize without Dame this team would prolly not even make the F'ing playoffs -- smart people who i thought were smart ( looking at you pup ) are falling into this too. However i know why fans are so touchy cause we realize next year more then likely will be rough with Kanter , Curry , Hood and maybe even Aminu leaving via FA and then add the fact Nurk prolly will not be back til new year of next season.

    Just relax and take a deep breathe --
