    Certainly appears to be a pattern at this point.

    Thank you, just catching up in this thread.
    Rough one last night.
    COuple things…..
    Can’t believe some of the things I read in this thread. How can people talk so much shit about our favorite team, brutal.
    Those that posted that “Any coach is better than Stotts”……….
    When do some on here finally put it on Nurk and not blame one of his head coaches for not using him correctly.
    It will be 4 years until Sharp can contribute, he has been scouted. Wishing we had used that pick to bring in more veteran help.
    Once again, can’t believe how much shit some are talking about my Blazers. I’m supporting them regardless. Always will.
    39 wins is looking spot on. Maybe @THE HCP does know a bit about the game.
    Hate Away…..

    Don't understand how we got abused by this Bryant guy while Nurk remained on the bench.

    I would immediately be starting Jabari Walker at power forward. He is already as a rookie a more consistent on-ball defender and rebounder compared to Grant. His footwork is really good.
    It makes no sense to me to give up assets for a power forward when we already have one capable of being a decent role player.

    I don't know who should be coming off the bench. It depends on Hart's willingness to take shots. If Simons is coming off the bench, that should demand that Hart gets to bring the ball up more and attack before the defense is set, which is something obviously we need more of.

    It would be great to start games not with Nurkic lumbering in the post, but with Dame attacking the hoop and passing to his teammates, including Nurkic.

    Yes forgot about Walker I think he will find if you wasn't trying to get in the playoffs I like more seasons type there and backing up with Walker. If you know your not going for playoffs play Sharpe and Walker has much as possible due think they will be really good next year with a good off season.

    Ask somebody else. I didn’t want Stotts to go anyway.

    Nurk is already doing that, but not scoring.

    lett me tell you something: thomas bryant scored 31 pts, 7 of them were against nurk, but people will push the narrative than bryant dominated nurk

    maybe he would have if nurk played around 30 min, given he played beyond terrible these last three games

    over the last 15 games:

    dame shooting 3-pointers 29.4% on 10.7 attempts per game
    ant shooting 3-pointers 33.6% on 8.9 attempts per game

    they are our best shooters, thats really, really bad
