    Man it really looked they were going to fuck up good and proper at the end of the third and the beginning of the fourth ... oh well, can't lose 'em all I guess.

    We can't win anymore games, any chance we could send Kindspeed to the rest of them?

    I think we've all seen that Thabeet is garbage. We cut Chris Johnson for this guy?

    And what's up with Nate Robinson? He seems to play like an all-star every time he comes to the Rose garden. But he's been tossed around the league like an old pair of shoes the last few years.

    If the team won't tank the games we'll tank our postings.

    Home cooking? Hes from Washington I think. Hes actually been playing really well sine Monta got traded, dunno if Mark Jackson actually taught him to play like a PG or if he feels less pressure to chuck every possession knowing he'll get 30 mpg.

    Yes it is. But let's see if we can outdo ourselves next game and keep the next game thread to just two posts (one to announce the start of the game and the second posting the final score).

    Brilliant idea but baby steps, SPD, baby steps.

    But yeah, go ahead and start the universal game thread for the rest of the season.

    That's too much effort. This thread should just now be declared the universal game thread for the season. Gotta really tank it hard.

    Fuck crawful and failton. First they scuttle the ship, now they're bailing out water just long enough to screw over our draft pick. Ass. Holes.

    It occurred to me while watching the game that Felton actually has contributed something good to the Blazers; without him on the team there is no way our record would have been worse than Golden State's when Hickson was waived, and we would not have been able to claim him.

    We didn't have a worse record--we were 21-24, they were 18-25. We got him because Golden State never put in a waiver claim. They were waiting for him to clear waivers and then sign him to a new contract.

    We should retire his number. It should hang next to Larry Steele's.

    In effect, it's like trading Felton for Hickson. We should tank next year to pick up the best players who get cut.

    Why didn't we get several really good players like this in the years we were at the bottom? Oh yeah, I forgot, it wasn't Pritchard's philosophy to acquire veterans or anyone good.

    The real tragedy of our tank implosion is that it could have been avoided.
