    Good for you. Maybe find the Portland Terry Stotts forum and post on there.

    That may be true, but saying it based on what we’ve seen on this trip is not really doing anything to make the case. Dame is in a massive shooting slump and CJ isn’t doing much better. You can’t fairly evaluate this roster until we see how it works when those guys are somewhere close to their norm.

    I'm saying based on six years of experience, the current trends are just reinforcing what's been obvious for a while now.

    Dame at least was +5, and looked a lot more like the old Dame in the second half. But part of that was he was doing his old thing of just walking it up the court.

    We are not trying to run. Dame just won't.

    It’s definitely not easy. But Stotts didn’t do anything to merit a 10th season with the team. It was time to move on. We got a new coach, that is a rookie himself. It will take time for him to instill his system and philosophy. We also get the opportunity to gain some insight/information as to whether the problems was actually due to the coaching or the roster.

    I find it petty and pathetic that there are a faction of Blazers fans (more so on Twitter than on here), that are taking pleasure in the early struggles so it can serve as some form of vindication for their demigod Terry Stotts.

    I was 100% fine with the coaching change. My past posts would show that. It is still funny that the exact same posts are being made about Billups that Stotts got. Like Billups was going to come in and all the shit people hated before would magically disappear. It’s just replacing one name with the other.

    0-5 on the road mostly against poor quality teams ie cavs and 76ers bench. Went from being positive after the clippers home win to pretty bad negative.
