    Ant is a loser. He can get hot scoring from time to time but brings nothing else

    7 turnovers in the 4th really hurt. four by Lillard I think.

    I dont give a shit. i enjoy watching this team win or lose, i dont get unhinged everytime something goes wrong, been a fan of this franchise for over 30 years. should we have won this game sure probably, but shit happens get over it. And if you thought this franchise was such shit why do you even bother?

    i honestly found that last sequence funny

    I feel like we’ve lost more games on game winners than won this year, which is crazy

    I don't get when when we need a stop, we don't put our best defensive players on the court....

    He's not wrong, we are a pretty average franchise at best. It's okay to not be rose-colored without people getting defensive/aggressive.

    These kinds of losses are more maddening than the blowouts.

    Dame’s turnovers late were a factor. Team played like garbage all night and let a bad team hang around. Already a bad road trip.

    we had been subbing ant out every defensive possession in the fourth.

    the game winner was scored over a guy we subbed in. and he played shit defense.

    Great ballgame. I can't really be critical of much aside from the Blazers committing too many turnovers in the 4Q. The really bad one was the inbound play off Ant out of bounds after Dame got the charge -- did Justise throw that, it seems like he does something like that every game at least once?

    Tough loss. Gotta bounce back and win the second one.
