    Zach being out is not why they lost. Please stop using that as an excuse.

    With Nurkic in foul trouble and Kanter unplayable, do you honestly believe Collins wouldn’t have helped? He is everything we were missing.

    Of course Monte Morris comes back to earth 1-10 I bet he misses the blazers defense

    If you’re interested, Collins had 14 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 blocks in Game 6 against the Nuggets in 2019. I think it’s safe to say he would’ve helped this time. He’s certainly better than RHJ.

    That’s what I was saying all thru the nuggets series that it didn’t even matter if we won that series. Blazers suck big time

    Even after Murray's injury, Nuggets were still doing well. I don't agree with this.

    Saying this for years
    I see KD's on another tirade. Jay Williams said he ran into KD at a party where KD said not to ever compare Giannis to him. Williams told the story on ESPN to build a narrative that KD is taking this series with the Bucks personally.

    Now KD denies ever saying it.

    I'm surprised probably the majority of the comments I read had people saying Williams was lying. What am I missing? KD's shown himself to be incredibly sensitive. He's got burner accounts out the wazzoo. It's easy for me to imagine he was at this party, had a little too much to drink, and he said the part that was supposed to remain silent. Williams doesn't really have anything to gain by lying and a lot to lose.

    Well yes, every team would like 6 extra fouls in the first half and a towel-waver in the second.
