    This game simply boiled down to shooting. Even if we had a poor shooting night rather than Cat crap , we win

    Lmao everyone having a meltdown is fuckin hilarious. It’s like we’ve never lost a game due to poor shooting or poor handling of the ball. With what looked like a lot of standing around waiting for something to happen.

    It's kind of a bummer. Nobody really had high expectations. We come out hot. Lose some we shouldn't, win some we shouldn't, but people blow up on the losses and shit all over the best player this franchise has ever seen. Oh, Clyde would never... Fuck Clyde.

    Dame's long-term health should be the concern....as he is getting older and injuries don't heal as quickly and occur more often.
    As for the Goat, I still submit there needs to be at least some WC game wins in a career. Otherwise, we are greatly disrespecting Walton and Clyde.....who played both sides of the ball.

    how soon we forget.

    he had an awful night.

    but he's earned our belief in him.... or so i thought.

    And Clyde, gimme a break. Revisionist history much? the going got tough and he bounced.

    They really need to just be conservative with Dame. Let him rest and fully heal. He’s been awful since he returned and it’s probably due to the calf. We saw what he was like before the injury so we’ll need him later in the season.

    Also this isn’t game 6 of the wcf if dame had even a twinge of a calf pull he shouldn’t push it. No reason to. We haven’t even broken 20 played games yet.

    Blazers lose 2 out of 3 on their brief home stand and now head out on the road for a tough 4-game road trip. Come talk about the game with us. What went wrong?

    What revisionist history? He got us to the Finals...twice. Sure, and then he left to go home, play with his college teammate, and win a title. I would wish that for Dame as well if he had got us close but not quite over the top. As for belief in Dame, he is a brilliant offensive player. Didn't know that one side of the ball, not getting very good post-season results qualified as the Goat.

    Perhaps my definition is different, which is fine...we can agree to disagree.

    Hell of a comeback. Proud of the boys. To do that comeback without Dame leaves me optimistic.

    Why is it that you were pretty much MIA “early on” and now that they’ve lost a few games, you magically reappear?

    That’s the thing. He obviously wasn’t right. Just an average night he hits 5 out of 12. He does that and this game is a W.
    He was not taking bad looks. Nurk set three or four huge screens and gave him 3-4 feet to work with. Dame makes those shots. We all know this.
