    Didn't see it, but it's kinda sad. No matter how people like od dislike JailBlazers era, bullying other team gives you advantage. Being nice does not do you any good im the game. I understand that Blazers got great chemistry im the locker room, but you can be really nice guy normalny and be animal on the court. Why they not. Od it Stotts?

    At least he trashed the offense for not passing, instead of calling Stotts an offensive genius for no reason like so many other announcers

    That play actually looked clean. Shoulda been a jump ball.

    That is not even close to a strong correlation based off of r-value, not close at all. Our eyes can see whatever we want, but the r-value won't lie.

    Are you one of my players or assistants? Dale, is this you??? I'm very upset by this. You do not leak my white board material on a public BBS! I will get to the bottom of this, and you will be sorry mister!

    Well were 1 of 30 teams. I bet you could find a correlation with OUR team.

    connect the dots

    Portland has a 1-8 record against teams with winning records, and 6 of their 12 game in Feb are against teams with winning records. Portland has a 5-9 road record and 3 of those wins came in the first week of the season; since then they are 2-8 on the road and there are 6 road games in Feb. That's a difficult schedule considering how they have performed so far. I mean, they just won 3 in a row against bad teams, had 3 days of rest, then got curb-stomped by a good team

    they have 5 chances left in December to show their stuff against good teams:

    Fri, Dec 6, 2019 Los Angeles Lakers
    Thu, Dec 12, 2019 @ Denver Nuggets
    Sat, Dec 21, 2019 Minnesota Timberwolves
    Thu, Dec 26, 2019 @ Utah Jazz
    Sat, Dec 28, 2019 Los Angeles Lakers

    I'm guessing they will be favored in only one of those games. I'd like to think they can win one of the Laker games. If they don't, going 2-12 for the year against winning teams is an emergency considering that 29 of their last 48 games are against winning teams

    I do hope he is retiring very soon because I have never seen anyone mistake so many players names. Marv, go out with some dignity.

    We are really missing Kanter. The blazers fucked up by not securing him in the offseason.

    he was so solid at getting easy shots on his own from a post up. We have nobody that can do that anymore. When we play a team that defends like the clippers we take bad shots bc we have no post up game to balance our offense so they just overplay our guards.

    So their schedule is average, not difficult? Even split between winning and losing teams, even split between road and home... you literally proved my point.

    Yup. Thats the only answer verse good defense is posting up. Only answer. I mean, just look at the Warriors the past few years. They didnt have a low-post presence.... oh.... wait...

    That’s not what I said but enjoy getting mad over nothing

    also funny how you picked like the one team in NBA history without a solid post up game to make your point (even though Durant could post up so this isn’t even accurate). You literally just try to start pointless arguments.

    So glad to hear Webber being honest and basically calling out Stotts ISO ball offense, its horrible to watch and will never win us anything big

    That game last night was disgusting. I can't get the bad taste out of my eyes. Melo and CJ starting taking bad contested shots early in the clock with no teammate within 20 feet of the basket, and it went downhill from there. Melo's worst game since his first game. The number of CONTESTED shots the Blazers took without a single teammate inside of the three point circle has got to be some kind of record. I've never seen anything like it in basketball, at any level. Horrible, horrible game. Just disgusting basketball.
