    Should chip in….I like Stotts...everyone around here knows that though. I think his job is safe. He should offer Tom Thibideau an assistant job on the bench ..guy can coach defense with his eyes closed.

    at times, some of the Blazers seem to play defense with their eyes closed so it would be a good fit

    great post! Thibs worked with Dame on defense during team USA workouts...Dame praised him then. I think before he tried head coaching he was the best defensive coordinator in the league ...he gets back to that and pairs with an offensive coach like Stotts and you've got a great pairing

    @SlyPokerDog I am willing to sacrifice and go to the game in your stead, if necessary...for the sake of the forum.

    One thing is for sure and that’s we still need an above average wing player...the retooled bench have taken us here but we still need that piece.

    We aren't firing Stotts. we're not even sure who our new owners are going to be. If we even have new owners.

    Without Nurkic they have the better team...

    Jokic is a bit better than Dame
    Millsap is way better than our second best player

    After the Blazer's actual last game, it'll be interesting to speculate who's going. Stotts is unlikely to be one of them.

    Dame is better than jokic. As I said, reverse the injury situation and we'd have already swept them and we would not be having this conversation.

    Joker + Referee's > Dame
    Murray is looking better than CJ because he can actually pass
    Millsap > Hobbled Kanter

    Stotts will not be fired. Just my 2 cents.

    @dviss1 i think the worst thing that guy said about you was saying you WEREN’T from the NEP. That’s a badge of honor as you know, and he was denying you of that!
