The historically bad defense alone is enough to warrant a coaching change, however, I don't think our shot selection gets discussed or addressed...
- Benching DJJ - Not starting Nas, instead starting a player likely not a long-term piece (btw I do like RHJ but that decision was looney tunes) -...
I started watching in 1990, so I missed out on seeing Jim Paxson but looking through the franchise leaderboards, he's littered throughout. I think...
I'd be skeptical of hiring Vanterpool as I think he's still too close to this organization and there would be built-in biases from the jump. I really...
5 minutes left in the 4th quarter, in a tightly contested game ... so what does the coach of the 3rd worst defensive rating team of all-time do? He...
I'd add to that list of candidates: - Charles Lee from the Bucks - Juwan Howard from UMichigan - Jay Wright from Nova
So it sounds like the season is riding on Nurk returning to Bubble form AND Stotts actually adjusting/adapting his lineups to minimize Kanter/Melo...
This is a really good question. Salutes to the thread-maker for bringing this up. I've been thinking about this a lot myself. A lot of good points...
*Bump* After back to back blowouts against teams ahead of us in the standings, I'm starting to worry about this franchise long-term. We went out and...
Two road tests and we get destroyed in both contests. Both games filled with inconsistent effort, terrible stretches of defense (Clippers Q1, Jazz...
Again, I'm not sayin Stotts is without blame for last night's performance. One example being he should have taken Kanter out within the first 3...
The defense is not entirely Stotts' fault. At some point the players need to play with some pride and urgency. Our first quarter defense has been...
Dame clearly isn't 100%, the bashing of our star player is showing a lot of folk's true colors right now.
[MEDIA] 74% of Blazer fans believe this is the best roster we've had since 2000. This is a damn good roster.
OKC lost at Phoenix by 37 tonight ... please never let the Thunder in this one, Portland!
The Lakers (healthy) are the only roster that is better. Denver and Clippers are comparable, but, when healthy, this Blazers roster is top 2-3 in the...
This too. It's unbelievable how poor the defense is this year despite the roster upgrades in that area.
At least getting out of the 1st round and being competitive after that point ... the roster is legit.
Let me be clear - this is not 100% on Stotts. The players need to come out with more sustained energy and urgency on a nightly basis, especially now...
Blazers give up 127 to the Bucks yet all I hear is "well, if the Blazers just made their shots ..." I'm so tired of the lack of accountability on the...
