    Chauncey shouldn't have a future as an NBA Head Coach

    Closers in. It’s going to be really hard to get a win over the next 8 games before we get to play the Spurs.

    They’re way bigger than us and they crash the glass on both ends. I’m not saying our guys are out there kicking ass, I’m just saying they’re nowhere near as flat as they were in Dallas.

    The Blazers are 'stuck' with Ayton. And I watch Reath and Badji. So can somebody explain to me why Portland guaranteed the contract of Moses Brown?

    I just want to repeat that the draft we took Anfernee, I was lobbying hard for us to draft Jalen Brunson. And then we could've traded Dame 3 years ago and be the Knicks today.

    setting the bar down to some of the worst basketball Blazer fans have ever seen, is less then bunny hop improvement.

    If we aren’t on fire from three I doubt we beat any team in the league besides San Antonio and Detroit.

    Maybe the kids can cut the Knicks lead into the 20's? Then everyone can forget the Blazers were down 40.

    Lamar mistakenly thinks we have “big games”.

    Blazers only have 77 with 3 minutes left in the game. It was 100% uncut Grant & Simons ISO ball with a dash of other Blazers. I don't know how anyone can say this game wasn't poorly coached.

    I got a chuckle about the guys jabbering about Portland 'finally' getting length on the roster in a game where the Blazers spent several minutes with Scoot-Ant-Sharpe on the floor

    the Timelord hype was real. Too bad it only lasted 6 games.

    Jerami and Anfernee played no defense and scored some points. Then the rookies got to play lots of minutes in the basketball chapel of Madison Square Garden. It was everything we should expect, and fans should not be disappointed. In fact, we're being told not to be disappointed. As if fans are always wrong, and only the media gets to be right.
