    sometimes you just need to admit you aren't more knowledgeable or a better fan than others are.

    I don't think most of us mind when younger players make mistakes, esp those who are inexperienced...but when you have players in their 5th, 6th, 7th + seasons making stupid mistakes, thats when you have to shake your head and wonder if they have ever played hoops before.

    That looked like LeBron moved into Kris’s landing zone

    I don't think anyone wants him. I think we are stuck with him.

    You've acted like this for years. You are ALWAYS playing the semantics game, and you're known for saying stupid stuff like "Learn the game, then post"

    Deni threw one of the worst passes ever in that quarter, but then most of the Blazers aren't able to make simple passes so their response is to try to make difficult passes instead.

    Kris Murray becoming a former Blazers can't come soon enough for me. He adds nothing. Nothing. He doesn't even bring energy. He's just a tall wing. That's what he brings to the table. Being 6-9.

    At this point it's just disorganized basketball with no one organizing it.

    “Learn the game, then post” came from some guy at O-Live and I sometimes said it as a joke. Others did too. I probably haven’t said it in 5-10 years. Calm down. I’m not saying you’re a bad fan or not knowledgeable. Those thoughts are coming from YOU.

    Agreed. Not sure what he brings to the game other than being a twin.

    I don't mind Lamar wanting to have his take on the Grinch but saying shit like, "History is what you want to believe." is fucking problematic.

    Chauncey's got to be called for some responsibility in this team's lack of offensive approach, doesn't he? We've seen the Blazers with Chauncey and without him several times this season, and the difference is noticeable. Either he can't coach offense or the players have tuned him out.

    Remember those two games that actually resembled some kind of offensive and defensive plan?

    They should go back to that. I wonder what's different about this team...
