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

    Steph Curry might hit 20 of them. Not over the 2 games, mind you. Just the first one.

    I’m trying not to overreact but the team doesn’t even seem to care tonight.

    we need one big change I don’t care what it is


    I hope Lamar wasn’t on nbatv with that squeal

    Absolutely it is the whole team tonight. Oddly though, when Melo plays, they look like that.
    The one game he was out, the whole team looked much better.

    What is wrong with Lillard? An embarrassing loss and performance by Dame. He has to snap out of it.

    We cannot keep anyone in front of us. How does Beverly get a straight like drive against CJ for a wide open layup

    They were obviously happy with a split in LA..which I'll take, but it would be nice to see them compete at least

    He’s gonna wait until there’s 3 minutes left and we’re down 40 to put Giles in, huh.

    Melo is literally like playing 4 on 5 on defense.

    "It was a hard decision to change the defense."

    We were 27th in defense last season.

    You can't make this stuff up.
