    Since it’s officially the off season now, I wonder if they’ve worked out a trade for CJ yet. I wonder why it’s taking them so long?

    Stotts needs to be fired before he leaves the building

    The loss hurts now but we've finally shed our albatross of a coach and I would say there's a good chance CJ is (actually) gone too. Hope Dame sticks around for the chance at a redemption tour.

    I really thought the blazers would win this series, but they were just too hot/cold. Denver is a more diciplined team. They won even with starting a couple of scrubs.

    Stotts not challenging the jokic foul changed everything and the team went fucking cold.

    If I was blazers management Terry would even make it to the podium. Escort him and his belongings in a cardboard box off the property.

    Ant hits 3 for 3 on threes in the first half and never gets a chance to shoot another 3 in the 2nd. This coaching is just bad

    Unfortunately, I don't think the league will allow it to be announced until the end of the playoffs. Don't want to take the focus off the games.

    It's a formality.

    But this team will be unrecognizable.

    Honestly, I think this was Lillard's last game as a Blazer. Hate to say it, but I'm looking at all the likely changes on this team, and this isn't going to be a retooling. This will be a major rebuild. He deserves better than to be part of the mess the next couple of years are probably going to be.

    Terry can't develop talent. That's apparent. You give Denver guys like Ant and Nas, I bet they are solid rotation players.

    This is going to make me so happy. Itll be the 2nd best highlight of the year Blazers wise.

    So thankful he won't be known as the winningest coach in franchise history cause that would have been a God damn joke.

    Lillard is not gone unless Jody sells the team.

    Defending Stotts til the bitter end. I love it. I’m sure you’ll be crushed when that sack of shit gets fired in the next week.
