    We could have gotten blown out by 60, missed 88% of our shots, had to play the scrubs because they were the only people to make buckets, and it STILL would have been more fun than working retail from 4:30 am to 2 PM on black friday.

    I'm glad we won, but it was ugly and dependable on luck. The Blazers should have destroyed the Nets. There are a lot of glaring issues with this team right now. There are not enough shooters on this team, Stott's offensive scheme is dependent on shooters. Stott's it seems can't be flexiabl

    So looking at the box score, the “big three” played the best together all year in terms of numbers and we still have up 125 to Brooklyn and only won by two? I mean whatever I will take it. However it’s amazing looking back earlier in the chat, people complaining about dame or cj not getting players involved. Dame had 9 assists. Cj has 5. Not sure what else you want them to do just to get our scrub role players some looks. We need actual role players around dame and cj, it can work.

    Our wings are just so bad, it’s amazing to me we pretty much traded away batum for vonleh. Then we said hey crabbe and turner, do you want insane contracts?! Sure, here. Meanwhile batum is still better than both. Should of kept him

    Dame and CJ did a good job getting other players involved but other players was getting assist too due everyone was sharing the ball. Bottom line they play like a team on the offense today.

    Nice. My stuffing this year has hand picked chantrelles, Oregon white truffles, and birch boletes. Oh, and duck fat. Never forget the duck fat.

    Fuck that guy. He takes himself WAY to seriously. Poison Idea came out with an EP where they made fun of him. I think that's hilarious.

    I like Fugazi and Minor Threat, but yes, Ian takes everything way too seriously. I'm actually close friends with a guy who played in Poison Idea for quite a while. I honestly have no idea how he is still alive.

    My friend told me stories about going to Pig's place to try to get him to come to band practice. There was some insane, foul, and vile things going on there.....haha.

    You ever go to Foster Burger? There walls are covered in old original La Luna concert posters. I could sit in that place for hours just reading those old flyers. The music scene was insane.

    No. I'll go in there sometime. Probably went to a few of those gigs.

    La Luna was something else. I remember going there with friends during the 90's and seeing bands like Sublime, Cherry Poppin Daddies, and Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel.

    I was at the Les Claypool slow. Was that when he announced that Bryan Mantia was the new Primus drummer? Man he was like a sledgehammer that night.

    Happened again near the end of the game, and could very well have lost the game for us. Dame drove to the basket, drawing the defenders. Meanwhile Nurk was rolling to the hoop. Instead of making the open dish to Nurk for an easy dunk, Dame took and missed a degree of difficulty 8 shot. I couldn’t believe my eyes.

    Yeah two different defenders fouled him hard, and no whistle. It was pretty unbelievable.
