    We’ve gone from 4th quarter meltdowns to entire 2nd half meltdowns. Yeah, this roster isn’t the most talented or most optimally constructed, but these types of recurring meltdowns falls on coaching.

    It's too easy to shut down the Trail Blazers by hounding our guards.

    Several teams will pass us. I’ve watched a lot of hoops this year league wide. Raptors, Wizards, Magic will all pass us. Possibly even the Spurs and Hornets.

    I'm giving it until the trade deadline before I melt down. If significant things haven't changed, I'll be pretty upset... not surprised because Joe was a decision maker under Olshey but still really fucking pissed. Let's see what happens.

    Where does Portland have to finish to be able to use the pick they gave to Chicago?

    Lakers had two pg’s running the show in the second half and got them rolling.

    I think as long as they’re in the lotto. So a top 14 pick?

    Losing on purpose felt better than this

    I'm curious why Hart was not allowed to bring the ball up the court. Instead they had Jerami Grant doing that. That was strange.

    Prepare to be disappointed. They can’t add salary and they have almost no matching pieces. The most likely scenario is Josh Hart being moved for some seconds.

    We lost. Which at this point is a HUGE positive

    What do you mean "not allowed"? We've seen countless 1:2 an 1:3 fastbreaks from him this season.

    Like I said, I'll wait and see. Why in the fuck even move Josh if it's for a couple of seconds?
