    If we can't expect a win when the other teams 2 best players are out, then what are we even doing as a team?

    Okay, how many of another teams top players need to be out before it is okay to expect a win?

    They’re the best home team in the NBA. A win would’ve been our best of the season.

    Anfernee needs to know when to look for others. I get it, he’s a scorer and has that mentality. Just felt like he was overly aggressive at the end.

    and also play fucking sharpe.

    Because unlike Portland's team salary situation, the Warriors being over the cap line would have incurred massive luxury tax penalties. This fact has been well reported.

    What a shitty loss. Beginning was so fucking shitty and then we did great until the last two minutes where everything went to shit again.

    This team just needs to get healthy so our management can be sure that we aren't elite and make some needed moves.

    Poole is better than Simons and Dame is done. At least he got all his money from Jody

    Is it possible the Blazers are just not as good as we thought they were going to be?

    Either you’re a clown or an idiot. Possibly both.

    I watch a lot of college basketball and that meltdown would have made some college teams embarrassed.

    No. It’s a horrendous loss. A team with a worse record, missing its two best players, just beat our team playing with our three best players - and with us coming off of three days of rest.

    you omitted that it's a road loss and I'd quibble about Wiggins being in their top 2 (Green is at least as important) but yeah, reality check for the team and fans. Whoopie! We're currently okay-ish!

    Will the fans, nope. They’ll expect us to win every game the rest of the season.

    I need to find that updated win prediction thread somebody made 3 weeks into the season. That should be a fun read.
