    Be careful about Bogdan.

    Not sure why but he and Bogdanovic are really tight. Let it be on record, that I too have loved this guy for a while now and have been clamoring for us to try to go after him, contract situations be damned.

    Dame even referenced that today (9 min mark):



    the love is mutual:

    Hold on, so I just looked at our teams stats for the first time this season, and Whiteside is averaging 15/13/2 and a per of 24.03.........
    Is this the same Whiteside that get TONS of hate on here? Those seem like good numbers to me.

    Have to admit there are times i watch him and he looks disengaged. But the numbers don't lie. He is producing. I think the biggest issue is people forget he started the season hurt and then twisted the same ankle again a couple games into the season. He might only just now be starting to be pain free again. He is also supposed to be paired with Zach. Having a solid defender next to him would help his game.

    Even Lillard has told Whiteside that we need more from him than numbers.

    Too bad the NBA doesn't just skip the whole playoff thing and award championships to teams with players having the best stat lines.

    Holy hell, tonight is a freaking must win.

    This stretch is gonna make or break the season. We can legitimately come out of this with a 4-14 record which would effectively end our playoff hopes. I can see maybe 4 wins to bring us to 8-10, which wouldn't be too bad, but this is crucial.

    Those three days until the road trip in SA are crucial practice days for us to get on track.

    Agreed. If they can go 4-4 in these 8 games, that would be amazing. My target was for Portland to be 0.500 at the end of 20 games.

    Stats are not everything, ask Westbrick, since he put up triple Double seasons he has never won a POs series

    It's crazy, we have to win all 8 of those games to match our record from last year.

    But after that last year we fell to 15-13 at one point so comparing last year's pace to 12-6 isn't exactly bad to be below that pace as long as we don't have bad stretches like the 4 game losing streak.

    Nurk last season I believe averaged somewhere around 15/10/1.
    And we get rid of some ROLE players to bring Whiteside in as a REPLACEMENT remember........ I think we should remember that. This dude was just helping out til Nurk got back remember? And is putting up similar if not BETTER numbers and people STILL want to bitch. We might be 0-10 without Whiteside this season.
    I wish more guys ion our roster were putting those kind of “empty” numbers up this season.
