    They aren't really playing that much better than Cleveland, why would this be the game that got him fired...? They're both 2-8 in their last 10.

    Cavs are a trash team

    Who? LeBron James?

    We are the team missing key players over and over and over and over and over again.

    I’m split on the player question.
    Bazemore isn’t playing well and has a large contract and Tolliver is a pretty good option also.
    I would have to think Baze with an expiring contract has more value but they sure could use a good player in that position?

    He said “May land” and 14% is better than zero chance.

    I know it’s not a popular take but I think they are ugly as all get out.

    The logic that “we had a bad night and loss to the worst team” so were always going to play down to that level is an absurd argument.

    one game is one game. Can’t count how many times ive heard the GS game pulled out as if it’s some undeniable proof that all is lost.

    Shoulda kept Turner instead of Bazemore. We’d have a backup pg and 2nd unit’s offense wouldn’t be a total shot show. I called this before the season started. Nobody appreciated Turner.

    also shoulda kept Aminu instead of Tolliver and/or Mario.

    The grass is always greener.

    The funny thing is i bet the Blazers have lost the worst team in the league or at least one of them every year i have ever watched the team.

    Next 4 games are crucial: Cavaliers, Bulls, Thunder and Bulls. I expect 4:0 !

    Beat the Cavs then the Bulls. 3-3 road record is not bad then win two at home.
