    Yeah I agree on this. All year it’s been that way. They let players disrespect them and bully them. They absolutely need an enforcer type player.

    Baze could fill that role, but he doesn't fit for whatever reason.

    Nurk is not healthy, Nurk (before the injury) might've been our 2nd best player.

    Dame missed his last 7 threes. CJ was a -20. Melo was a joke. Horrible.

    The whole team is a joke. Stotts is the punchline

    Our three best players this season. Also- Nurk has never shown that he can play any better than Hassan has.

    OK. My mistake. HOUSTON is the only other team that runs 1980s offense.

    Forgive me for not being absolutely precise when I am venting.

    I wasn’t asking Melo to change, I was asking Blazers to not take two years to figure out what took the Rockets two weeks to figure out, and the entire rest of the league concurred.

    They will not make the playoffs at this rate.

    This team has 1 functional big guy on the entire roster. Until this changes, why anyone would expect us to win a game is beyond me. Melo is already playing way too minutes and that won't help him as the season continues. Whiteside can only do so much given all that is being asked of him. The stretches where Tolliver is on the floor at center, we're going to get outscored.

    Not sure about that. Go down the roster. Besides Lillard vs Rubio, how many of their starters would you take over Portland’s?
