Game Thread GAME# 4: BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - DECEMBER 30, 2020 - WEDNESDAY, 7:00 PM, NBATV & NBCSNW

Discussion in 'Portland Trail Blazers' started by Darkwebs, Dec 28, 2020.

?

When Melo comes back from the health/safety protocol, should he lose his spot in the rotation?

Poll closed Jan 3, 2021.

  1. Yes, he was horrible before and there are better players behind him.

    18 vote(s)
    31.6%

  2. No, but give him one last chance. If he stinks it up, into the doghouse he goes.

    3 vote(s)
    5.3%

  3. No, give him a couple more chances, and if he doesn't play well, then give away his minutes or spot.

    6 vote(s)
    10.5%

  4. No, but keep him on a short leash each game. Pull him if he's not playing well.

    28 vote(s)
    49.1%

  5. No, a player should not lose his spot because of an injury. He deserves his place in the rotation.

    0 vote(s)
    0.0%

  6. No, Melo re-signed w/ the Blazers on a min contract. He's a future Hall-of-Famer & deserves respect

    Can we just head out at half time? Or because we never showed up then it doesn’t count if we leave early

    That is where Stotts not holding guys accountable comes into play. That is ridiculous. Melo may hit a couple of shots, but he gives it all back....and then some.

    I feel like there’s been a bunch of games like this in the league so far. One team just goes apeshit from three and the other team can’t keep up.

    Then stagger Melo and Kanter more. Or dont play those two so many minutes. Or give the guards more help with the screen. Or tell the guys defending off-ball to help off a little less. Or...

    The Clippers are getting all the bounces, and the Blazers are getting none.

    If the Blazers continue on this beatdown path at the hands of the Clippers, I wonder what the Twitter was will look like after the game?

    Patrick Beverly is getting offensive tip in. That is unacceptable.

    Can I get a consensus on something? Are the Blazers back to being the worst team in @Natebishop3 's life? ;)

    Jordan Kent does not understand what the phrase keeping pace means.

    That's what Stotts can say at this after the game?
