    Won't argue with that. It's systemic.

    What happened to the world's greatest coach, Nick Nurse?

    Wait, when did this thread change from hyperbolic to facts based?

    When you tried to claim something as fact. There's a line. Lol.

    Stotts should be fired. That's a fact!

    This is why I need to go into management.... so I can take credit for other people's hard work.

    You've got the other half of management down: Blaming failures on others. :smiley-beerchug:

    Why the hell would you have RoCo make the second free throw when you’re down 3 with 16 left. That whole series was horrible.

    55 attempted 3's ... we get outscored in the paint 60+-20+ ... we lose by 4. I'm so tired of watching Stotts coach this team.

    It's to the point now where I'm looking forward to the playoffs being over so we can make a coaching (and possibly GM) change.

    The commentators and apologists will rave that it's the 8th year in a row the Blazers have made the Playoffs.

    Big deal. The Blazers earlier in their history had one of the longest Playoff runs in league history.....and nothing to show for it other than a vast majority of 1st round exits. This playoff run is rife with mediocrity and not a sniff of being a contender. Couldn't care less that they keep sneeking into the Playoffs to be dismissed in a sweep or gentleman's sweep.

    Oh I’m sorry, does Nurse have a single top 50 player on his roster? I’d say, without question, that he’s been overachieving with what he’s been given. Swap the coaches - Nurse for Stotts - who does better with their new team? Not even a question in my mind that Terry would be fired within a month.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I don't think that's a mistake. I don't have any data on something so specific, but just from watching, "intentional miss into offensive rebound" seems significantly less likely than "foul into at least one missed free throw [into defensive rebound if the miss was the second free throw]."

    Yes he does.

    But I agree with you. Talent matters way more than coaching. I like Nurse by the way.

    Yes, this is accurate.

    They would've just fouled us anyway and started the process over.

    Well it was a guaranteed loss the other way.
