Portland is on a 3-game skid. They are in desperate need of a win to stop the bleeding.

It'd be extra sweet if we could break our losing streak against our eternal rivals.

BlazerBeav · Feb 23, 2021

This is the one to get (though should've gotten tonight as well). Dame always plays well against LAL.

THE HCP · Feb 23, 2021

WE should have no problem winning this game. Big one for US considering WE have our 2nd best player out injured.

wizenheimer · Feb 23, 2021

I voted Lakers in the poll, but really, there are about a dozen really close 2nd place teams

If you pull off all double talk throughout this entire thread, that would be so hilarious.

AldoTrapani · Feb 23, 2021

I’m on fire right now. ANOTHER loss here...

Strenuus · Feb 23, 2021

easiest poll question ever.

Though please remember to censor that nasty vile word in the poll.

Its funny how absent you are when the team does well.

This further proves you only like when the team loses.

Stop trying to say otherwise.

Remember the deal, you can be right on as many losses as you predict since you always predict losses but you don't get to brag about it until you've predicted a few wins accurately. Then the losses you predict actually mean something. It's a simple concept.

Thats a lie. I always admit when I’m wrong snd get happy when I am. I’m just not a homer

You do always admit when you're wrong and you definitely are not a homer in any way. I also do believe that you're happy when we win (and you've almost always predicted a loss) because you take it on the chin and never whine about it or make excuses for why we didn't lose. Your way of being a fan is weird but you're definitely a fan.

You literally said we were going to lose the NOLA game. You were in the thread the entire time. Then, when we won. And won the next couple of games you literally weren't here.

Action speak louder than words.

kjironman1 · Feb 24, 2021

Why do you guys even respond to the troll? If they lose this game or even get behind he will post 30-40 times the same thing about telling all of you how this team sucks.
If they get ahead and actually win this game he will quit posting after he says they got lucky or had to ride Dame into the ground.
Of course you will have to hear how lebron is a true MVP. How the Lakers have a real team and the GM is so much better. Then there will be the obligatory post about how if AD was playing it would be a blowout.

Then on to the next game thread where he will again predict another Loss.

kjironman1 · Feb 24, 2021

Everyone hates the Purple and Piss. I'm not shocked there are some that don't hate them the most but pretty much every Blazer fan hates the Lakers. Of course there are the trolls.

There was a short period when I disliked the rockets and thunder more than the lakers, but I'm back to normal these days. Fuck the lakers.

Scalma · Feb 24, 2021

Will we have Cousins for this one? JK I know olshey ain’t doing shit.

We will have nobody! That you can count on! (C'mon Olshey, prove me wrong, please)

Now that we can afford the vet min at any level without hitting the luxury tax apron and we obviously aren't tanking; it's just insane that we haven't signed another big. INSANE!!! How can Olshey justify that? What the fuck is even going on? I can't wrap my head around it.

only acceptable answer would be if he’s waiting on a particular guy to be available (Ariza?) or is planning on doing an uneven trade. But this is olshey, and history says that’s not the case, so yeah, what the fuckk?

We can fucking hope that the reason why is that there's something big... that makes fucking sense, that's coming down the pipeline. Maybe a trade deadline deal after CJ and Nurk are healthy but I'm not holding my breath. Olshey has done a lot of inexplicable things.

YOU RANG FAMS!!??

AldoTrapani · Feb 24, 2021

Neil this is how you build a team around a guard oriented star

THE HCP · Feb 24, 2021

Didn't they have Gobert first? So they built around a fantastic defensive center is probably more like it.
