    In all honesty I will embrace any changes this team makes should the season end poorly and there truly seems to be no other options. Coaching, GM, players. I don’t really care beyond Lillard.
    However! I will truly enjoy watching this team if they can start to play the way I know these players are capable of playing. I’m really going to have a great time rooting for these guys when they start putting all their tools and talent on the court. Call me a homer all you want. This team’s season is far from over. The amount of minutes this current roster has had on the court is going to increase. They are getting better every game. I am seeing knew options and looks nightly. They have the personnel to swap out for different match ups. I’m reading post after post by posters who have written them off. Know and understand that Damian Lillard is not done this season. When they start to rally I hope all of you will enjoy the ride as well.

    Good strong win. Gave the starters much needed rest, Dame is still beat up. Guy has taken a lot of hits this season, most weren't even called.

    I would imagine we all hope that is the case. Sadly, against teams over .500, it has been almost anything but. If they finally turn a corner and start playing how they are capable of, there will likely be much rejoicing. They will also likely be the legitimate question of, 'What took them so long?'

    The Pacers scrub team embarrassed our scrub team. They looked completely uncoached.

    Pacers fan after tonight's game:

    "I swear we always give up 9 threes to some no-name scrub off the the bench."

    We win by 40 and the Pacers still get the laat laugh due to us having TJ Leaf on the payroll.

    Did you say something negative about a Blazer? Nobody can call you a homer anymore.
