    The team got ahead early and thought they could just launch 3's...then they got a lead late and thought the Grizzlies were going to give up.

    That's been the m.o., of this fucking franchise to far too many years.

    I’ve been a proponent of giving Chauncey a fair chance, but he ain’t it.

    It all started with that Ayton foul that HCP refused to show a replay of.

    Blazers bricked everything for 8 straight minutes. I have no idea how many consecutive shots they missed.

    They looked like they ran out of gas. Too many minutes for the way they were playing, During the 20-2 run ....they could have used Ant. it is not like they were stopping anyone.

    Yes. It was hyperbole. We played like we’re tired and just wanted to get to the next one.

    I had a feeling this was a loss. Was hoping to be incorrect. Didn't see that type of ending coming. A complete, long meltdown.

    Learn from it and move on.

    With that loss we will start a very long losing streak. I wouldn't be surprised, looking at the schedule if it's a double digit one.

    Just for my sanity though, I need Shaedon to start looking to get a lot of buckets. That mid range game is money, he's incredibly effective at the hole and I want him shooting at least two three pointers every time Jerami shoots one.

    It appears we missed our last 10 shots after the 8:13 mark.... plus a handful of turnovers and bad defense.

    To the worst team in the league.

    Butt kicked in the 4th...shoutout to Banes, Smart and Jackson Jr...they played hungry and kept at it to earn their first win of the season...get the next one! Got to put the ball in the basket to win this game.
