    Regress in comparison to our regular season offense? To previous playoffs? In comparison to other teams? I need to know what you'd like me to look up since you don't like to provide data.

    I would expect our playoff offense to be worse than our regular season offense. That would be logical.

    Ok. Me saying I don't like us putting Dame on Booker is me defending Stotts. I should've said I liked the decision?

    Been days since I've praised Stotts for anything.

    More on the positives. Little shows ability to create his own shot and continues to shoot the '3' at a very high percentage.

    what you should do is be prepared for some emotion in game threads, from anybody

    and you initially rationalized the Booker assignment by saying that Dame couldn't keep CP3 in front of him...so obviously, put Dame on Booker. It was a bad rationalization then and it still is bad 3 hours later

    also, lighten up

    Certainly with the players this team has available. I know Hood played pretty well in the first half and Melo made a couple shots but for crying out loud what gives?
    Little should be getting his chance to step up RIGHT NOW!

    I stand by my stance that Dame has been bad defending CP3 through his entire career. I stand by my stance that Dame on Booker was a bad matchup. I'm not sure what's so triggering by this, especially since I think we agree.

    I'm here for your emotions my friend!

    that makes no sense at all. If you have a stance, how can you stand by it? Was this a transporter malfunction?

    also, why is it you drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

    The Blazers are in desperate need of a second person who can create shots for others. If the three's are going it is not as noticeable, but man when they struggle shooting the offense becomes so stagnant.

    A forward who can create shots for others? We had that...7 years ago!

    I still don’t understand why Neil can’t bring in another big on a 10 day.

    I can’t believe Stotts is letting Nassir Little rot away what a shame

    I can totally believe it. It's going to take another injury to get Nassir more minutes.
