    Does anyone have any insight as to why McMillan plays Diener instead of Patty Mills?

    I honestly don't remember seeing this many lobs from the Blazers. EVER!

    It was like an All-Star game - NO DEFENSE.

    But only on one end; how many steals did we get against them?

    I don't know if he was dressed last night, but Mills has been in street clothes.

    That was hilarious. I had to rewind it.

    BTW. Brooklyn's Finest was not very good.

    Just making fun at the disparity in favor of JB when we always heard how Sergio is a real PG because of his great A/TO ratio...

    I was wondering that myself. The thing I noticed, is when Diener was out there, it didn't even look like he was trying to learn the system or anything. Bayless ran point, and he just kind of hid in the corner for the most part. When Mills was in there in his few stints, he was involved, and he caused speed problems for the other team. Diener looked like he didn't even want to be here.

    Maybe we've already decided not to keep Mills?

    Doubt it. I think this is just something to keep Nate happy knowing he has a guy with some experience back there.

    A three page game thread? Weird. I guess there's not much to talk about when we're ass raping our opponent, huh?

    Major props to the 300 section fans.

    Last night, having to kill time, they started talking about how fans in the 300 level don't leave early . .. even during blowouts. It's one thing that blows Howard away . . . fans stay even during blow outs.

    Love Blazer fans!

    I really enjoyed last nights game. At around 1:00, I had to pick a game to watch while falling asleep, either the second half of the OKC game or the first half of the Knick game I watched hours earlier. I choose the Knick game.

    You know if blowouts were a regular thing, maybe they might get bored of it. But last night, I was more of the feeling that we don't get treats like that very often, and I was going to enjoy every second of it.

    I am just going to throw this out there. Every time Dante Cunningham plays and actually takes shots, he looks calm, in control, and is quite efficient. It seems to me he could play a bit more of a role on the bench. Yea yea I know the rotation has been shortened. But I figured I would throw it out there.

    Bayless really out played Sergio last night. While Serge had a couple nice layins, his court vision was weak..anyone see him drive to the heart of the defense then throw it completely over his shoulder into the backcourt? Vintage Rodriguez. I thought Bayless looked in control and even was working some two man game with Juwan. He also had at least two hockey assists in his first shift as well.

    3/4 bitching of most game threads are about various Blazers (players, coaches, management) sucking. I'm sure some here were very disappointed with last nights performance... oh well

    Though I rarely tune in to one of those threads during a game, I find them pretty funny to read through after words, especially following a win

    I love that this thread got 79 posts while we killed a team and played great. Yet we get hammered and played like shit tonight and that thread gets almost 500!
