    Blowing games late sucks. Blowing them to the Warriors is worse.

    This game is on the refs. No doubt. The foul disparity was a joke and wasn't created because the Warriors were more athletic/crafty - it's because the refs weren't square.

    Reath led us in +/- yet again. Scoot was a disaster.

    Like usual, the other team increases the energy on their defense and makes it harder to score, the Blazers get frazzled and play hot potato.

    Well, Rockets and Clips also won their games. So, not the worst thing in the world.

    A lot of guys played really well and should be proud of the effort. Onto the next one.

    So I get it. Three of our starters were out the majority of the game and two of them are the two win now not later players I'm saying need to be traded by the deadline. That being said we lost against a washed up sub .500 team that was having a terrible game even by their washed up standards. So what I'm saying is we're not good enough to win big right now so we should concentrate on adding young players, draft assets, maybe some bench mentors and losing enough games to get the best player possible with our pick in the draft.

    That being said... it was nice to see Ant come back without missing much of a beat and Shaedon is the truth. Scoot will figure things out and be a real weapon on both ends and we have a bunch of bench pieces that are the right age to go with those guys and Deandre. GO BLAZERS!!!

    Coach too. It was a great loss. Nothing to be ashamed of.

    Not a bad loss. Played good to great D. Better to get a lottery pick.
    Warriors suck. Sick of Curry. Draymond is a dirty player. Klay is done. All the GSW FRPs are busts.

    Camara took 14 shots to get 6 points.
    What the hell was that? I don't blame him, his teammates have to take those shots, or know he can't shoot.
    Having Ayton would've helped.

    That's a game I would have liked to have but not a game I expected to have. The Warriors needed everything and three guys in striped shirts just to stay in the game, and the Blazers made a couple of bad decisions at the end to polish it off. Still, a lot to be encouraged about.

    I'll say Kuminga did impress me mightily. I'd consider rescuing him.

    For anything of value? No. But I do like him.

    Not a legitimate response.
