"Why"? You might ask. "Don't you know, dear Stevenson, that we have a broken roster, a rookie coach and GM, absentee owners, no cap space, and an aging back court?" Of course! But I also know that we are getting ever closer to our annual spring fake-out! The traditional winning streak, wherein the team wins 7 or 8 in a row, gets us excited, and sneaks into the playoffs as Charle's Barkley's underdog is just around the corner. Moral victory, and two weeks of fun hoops, here we come!
BLOW IT UP Shaq and Charles flame the Blazers: “They ain’t no good” “They need to break the team up and start over. They can get some good pieces. They can get some draft pieces. They should have broken Lillard and McCollum up three years ago. They lost in the first round three years in a row. You lose in the first round, you ain’t no good…It’s time to start over.” Charles Barkley, NBA on TNT Oh and Happy Holidays Stevenson!
The red flag shouldn't be that we're one loss to the Pelicans away from the lottery, but that we are underdogs to Pelicans heading into the game. That's a bad sign.
So Shaq and Chuck are finally both saying what many have been saying for several seasons. Nice of them to join the party. They get paid how much for coming in so late?
Unfortunately many of our fans need to hear it over and over again. They refused to see it for many years and still thought we had a shot.
