    DA is rightly wondering why Plumlee was allowed a straight line drive from half court with no one sliding over to pick him up. Grant/Thybulle/Ant are vets and should know better

    First fucking game man. He’s 19. Wemby is in foul trouble tonight and he hasn’t done much either. Scoot will be fine.

    Jan 15th can’t come soon enough. There is no need for Grant on this team.

    6 assists for POR vs 17 for LAC.
    That needs work.

    Worst rebounding PF in the league. He's been that way for years. Maurice Lucas is rolling over in his grave that Grant is a 'power' forward.

    Wow Ayton with 4 fouls. This game seems poorly reffed, but also damn.

    Shaedon has 4x as many rebounds as our starting forwards.

    everyone take a DEEEEEEEEP breadth, unreal, sit back watch and lets give these guys some time to learn to play together - if you have high expectations then that's your issue. Lets see if they develop as the season progresses and get better, we are not going to win very much

    You guys are completely misunderstanding.

    I don't expect us to win. I don't expect us to play that well.

    I want to see SOME kind of offensive plan. Some kind of motion. Sets. Up tempo. I don't care if we miss shots. I want to see growth. I'm not judging the players. I'm mostly judging the coach.

    For the 3rd year in a row, you have 2 players running at a closeout 25' from the basket. One of my many pet peeves in regards to Billups. The personnel has changed, but the action is the same.

    Someone please explain why dipshit err Billups kept Ayton in the game with 3 fouls --- I realize you want to have trust in Ayton but come on very stupid. I am willing to be patient with the players but i have ZERO patience with Billups and just having basic common sense.
