    I think I said we would be battling to get into that 8th seed….. season going pretty much how I envisioned it would. Which is why I’m not cussing a screaming and bailing on this team like some. This is what is supposed to happen. Blazers fan for life FAMS!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    You say that NOW, but I'm pretty sure you had the Lakers way higher at the start of the season. Now you say you always had them battling to get that 8th seed!

    I don't know if he was playing the we game. I feel like he really thought you were talking about your Lakers and not your Blazers.

    No. In a 48 minute game, we would not score a single point.

    Houston may sneak into the play-in race.

    ...meanwhile the Nuggets continue their never-ending string of stretch bigs having success in the NBA -- if this Zeke Nnaji guy continues to play like he did today, then they will not miss MPJr!

    Are you kidding me? Okay maybe 50 is too optimistic; but 0 points is way too pessimistic. If we are going to be real… We’d score at least 15 points in a 48 minute game.

    I'm okay with Enes being preachy, but he's barking up some wrong trees

    He's dangerously become one of the same people he claims to be against. He's dictating what people can and can't do with their voices.

    I don't think Enes knows that Jeremy Lin's family comes from Taiwan, not mainland China. Nothing wrong with standing up to China over the Taiwan issue in my view but Enes take on money generated from international trade is sensationalized... I'm definitely not a fan of China and their morphing into an authoritarian dictatorship again..but poor people making shoes is going on all over the planet...Enes should start a shoe company in Boston and hire locals to make them...walk the walk...he should also accept that he benefits from sports money and broadcasts all over the globe...if it bothers him he should not accept the dirty money that pays him millions every year to play basketball...

    I remember a few years back Phil Knight was going to pull his support for Oregon because of the sweat factories and protest going on by progressives.

    They’d have an even better record if Mobley didn’t get hurt. The minute he came back, they were awesome again.
