    Yea this team just isn’t good enough defensively unfortunately. Regardless we’ll get smoked next round anyways..

    The silver lining is we’ll finally get some major changes in the off-season. Now that I think about it I can’t believe we won game 1 with this defense..

    The Blazers matador defence is such a joke. Literally zero effort. No sense of urgency. 100% a reflection of their coach.

    I could put up with kanters defense in the regular season because he was a beast on the boards....but he is no longer being a beast on the boards.

    Kanter can’t play in this series. Just cannot.

    We were up 6 when Nurk when out I believe.

    Kanter has been -15 in 5 minutes, and this is largely on him.

    Hate to say it, but I think we're done. Team was satisfied to win Game 1 and didn't think they had to keep playing after that. What a waste of a great start to the series on the road.

    Its so obvious that my grandma can see this. But a professional nba coach like stotts doesn’t see it. Its unbelievable unbelievable the guy is the worst coach in history

    Not a surprise given that none of the leaders of the organization have that “killer instinct”. Stotts doesn’t. Dame doesn’t. CJ doesn’t. They’re happy getting into the playoffs and being an easy out so they can go golfing at the country club.

    Defense comes from the coach, or it doesn't come at all.
