    Not HCP. He started slow and has been stuck in slo-mo from day one, FAMS!

    It's a preseason game. So much overreaction.

    its the 3rd preseason game and we haven’t looked good in any of them. There’s definitely reason to be concerned

    Lillard isn’t Lillard in Billups system. He’s a rythym player and needs freedom to do what he wants including 40’ shots. Lillard looks like he’s playing on team USA and trying to fit in.

    That's why he needs to play a lot more. Against real NBA players.

    That's usually the way it goes unfortunately. Someone below gets knocked off first.

    Whoever starts they need to learn to play together soon because they look really disconnected after this Kings loss

    To Olshey's defense (something I don't do often), he did what was in his best interest, even though it wasn't in the teams best interest. The fact that he had ownership and a few fans snowed after 8 years was the alarming part.

    The Blazers looked a lot better in the beginning with Winslow against Utah. Winslow makes Nurkic a problem for the other team, if Billups will allow it. I think the other players get more involved too.

    Looks like my annual “Nurk is overrated and soft as a pile of shit” posts might come early this year. So sick of this guy.

    I think we need to consider trading him and another piece for a SF.

    "Blazers sharing the ball beautifully with some nice interior passing." That's a quote from Kevin Calabro with 9:41 left in the first quarter in the game against Utah.
    Winslow started that game. I guess he didn't play tonight due to a "non-covid illness."

    Completely different situation. We were pissing away the prime of our superstar player. We had a window. That window is rapidly closing. Not even sure if it's still open to be honest. Have to see how Dame does.

    I'm talking about completely starting over, but that doesn't mean that a coach gets 10 years. I'm saying that it might take 10 years to completely rebuild, but I would rather have that than to sit around and watch a treadmill team lose and under perform year after year.

    It isn't just one preseason game. It's three....... and the team doesn't really look at all better than they did at the start of last season.
