    Too much Anthony Davis dunking. This sucks. This is like the 6th straight playoff series lost to Lakers. I'm sick of this shit.

    I wouldn't mind bringing Carmelo back if it's a friendly contract. If he'd take the min and would buy into a bench role then sure why not. Good riddance Whiteside.

    Hate the Rockets and Clippers but I’ll be rooting against Le-Ego the “goat” with a small “g”.

    How do the Flakers get so much mileage out of 2 really good players and a bunch of scrubs?

    I’ve enjoyed the Blazers making Kuzma look like a chump.

    Rockets could give LA trouble. Not because they're better, but the way they play they always have a chance. Lakers will have to be really efficient from 2 because they don't shoot the 3 well.

    Sucks that we couldn't get another win. At least, I don't have to make another game thread for a while.

    Well it was an interesting end to the season. Great to see the blazers fight just to salvage a tough season and make the playoffs. Sucks to lose to the Lakers but it was good as a fan to get a few extra games to root for. Next year will be interesting to see what the roster looks like. Now just have to watch the playoffs and root against the lakers, clippers and rockets.

    RIP Cliff Robinson!
