    I hate that I'm watching Blazer games and over the last 5 minutes I'm rooting for the other team to get the win. I don't like the Dallas Mavericks at all and I still had to.

    @Chris Craig pretty sure you got a game off and this should have been game 37. Then i followed suit in the predictions game. Lol!

    I doubt he stays in the league at this point. End of bench practice player on a good team. I guess he will be fine while a Blazer but my bet is eventually he ends up a throw in piece on a trade then gets waived.

    Or the players need to do a better job of doing what they’re told?

    What other team has so little talent that they can ALLOW a 15-0 run?

    Wonder if their fans think they should win games that they SHOULDN’T too?

    Read what you just posted out loud. If they aren't doing what they're told, that's still a function of the coaching. Easier to fire the players or the coach? That's an easy one.

    Murray is a really good player who struggles at one thing. Fix that thing enough and he’s an incredible 3 and D guy

    It’s so bad the Mavs even sat both Luka and Kyrie.

    I don’t know if I can agree with that. Average at best is what I’m seeing. Without a consistent shot he’s out of the league in two years.

    Murray has showed me some decent things this year in limited minutes. Much more than Walker.

    They should be rooting for them to lose if they were knowledgeable.

    I've been a fan since we drafted him...I grew up an Iowa Hawkeyes fan and wanted him in the draft....a lot of people didn't but I knew his game would translate to the NBA. I always thought I was his only fan around here. Kris gets you the ball.
