    Huh? You responded to my posts about effort changing the goal posts to talent and now are blaming me for doing so?

    This isn't the game to have this discussion man.

    You don't think some individual players have shown improvement on the defensive end this year? I've been impressed with Trents growth on that end. Dame is improving every year. Would have been nice to see Ant get better and CJ improve, I'll give you that.

    Never thought I’d see Portland tank?
    Seriously I just never really thought they would do it?

    Before this post (where you brought up effort) where did I mention anything about effort?

    Don’t waste your time with this guy man. His purpose is to troll with semantics.

    That's not true. And me saying that is not true, is not semantics either.

    A lot of people disagree with me, but only a couple people think its personal. I never intend to troll anyone or cut them down personally. If I have, it was unintentional. :smiley-beerchug:

    You responded to KJ's post about the team playing like they had given up asking him if the roster isn't a bottom 5 talented one. Giving up has nothing to do with talent level my man. Then you posted some BS about how if only S2 was out there giving max effort.

    It's sad that you'd excuse their effort by saying it's a lack of talent.

    Trent is the only one, but he said he watched a ton of film by himself... That's the only guy we can point to. That's an indictment of the coaching stuff, because we're making glaring, obvious mental mistakes defensively and haven't seen any improvement on them, at all.

    Too bad we only cut it to 10 not 5 until they hit the 2 dagger 3's.
