    I have not heard that old saying, but so true.
    Now if we could just get both political parties (And the media) to find another hyperbole to use.

    After his stance on Nurk I was surprised he wasnt banned. Yet again, I wonder how hes still allowed to post here. Inflammatory shit like this guy posts should not be allowed.

    The key in this series is Jusuf. Dude has to get engaged and start flying around doing things. These lapses where he gets into foul trouble because he isnt moving his feet can no longer be acceptable.

    This. More importantly, we can't give Jokic easy buckets either (looking at you too, Enes).

    Enes has to be out of the rotation. Cant play Kanter is real. The Nuggets are hunting him every time. Need to go small and give DJJ and/or Nas his minutes. Kanter has been a huge liability

    Enes has no business being the floor. His offensive rebounding has been nonexistent so he needs his ass benched. RHJ and Roco need all the backup minutes.

    The Knicks Hawks game last night was unreal. The fan atmosphere was awesome. Don’t understand why the restrictions are still this strong with so many vaccinated

    To get Nurk engage then you have to be more involved in the offense and due loves the crowds that might help energized him too.

    If it wasn't for Dame we'd have no fans at all.

    Lets go Blazers. Extremely important match where we can bounce back, regain self-confidence, take a lead and put some pressure on Nuggets. They would not be comfortable.

    If we lose, everything will change in their favor, so lets do the bussines tonight.

    I have belief. GO Blazers!

    And of course no Murray. We shouldn’t be struggling against this team at home

    I said it before and I’ll say it again. If this dude doesn’t finally show us sometbing during this playoffs please get rid of him. Between his often injuries, hoping we get good Nurk on any given night, I’m tired of this guy

    Why does the Team has to energyze a player in the Playoffs? Shouldn’t the player be motivated when he steps on the court?

    Yes!

    I'm going to the game tonight with my son. I'm pumped. I've had my jersey on all day. During video calls people have been asking me what name is on the back (it's Lillard).

    The last Blazers game I went to was February 25, 2020. (That's 458 days if anyone is counting.)

    Let's get this win!!
