    For some reason I was thinking the shot to the face affected his sinuses. I was probably wrong.

    I only posted that to try to show how macho I am so I wouldn't take it too seriously. :)

    Casey asked about consistent effort and approach the last 2 weeks. Coach Billups reminded him that the (-200) road trip doesn't count. We're only supposed to look at the 2 game win streak for results.

    Awful gameplan tonight. Way too much switching into mismatches on defense. Why is Simons on an island guarding Lebron? Why is Scoot switching onto AD? Why is Grant on Russell? All that switching works on teams like Indiana, but the Lakers are much more physical.

    Which is why in a perfect world, we'd be moving Ant instead of Malcom.

    Portland set a league high, 7 Blazer rookies played in tonight's game.

    I hoped for 13 points, 5 assists per game. Expectations are the problem. Not his game.

    The ups and downs are annoying, I would hope for more consistency

    Yeah and Ayton has to study up on players like that James guy that get easy calls from the refs. It messes up your rhythm.

    If you are going to continue calling him Poop Henderson, it only seems fitting that we should start calling you Dildo Trapani.

    "GET RID OF DAME HE FUCKING SUCKS. WORST PG WE EVER HAD."

    Scoot enters:

    "THIS GUY IS THE WORST PG WE HAVE EVER HAD".

    Mid tier midtierdenson enters:

    "THIS GUY FUCKING SUCKS".

    Just always remember, the common denominator in this situation is the person making these comments, and how each and every person should never listen to them.

    The very fact that you knew Tunchi was someone speaks volumes.
