If Nurkic can't play, who should start at center?

    We probably lose this game in past years though, so that's progress.

    We gave up 112 points to ORLANDO and they didn't have Aaron Gordon?! Did someone fail to tell the Blazers that Orlando was actually an NBA team?

    In this game no one can down grade Dames three point %. He brought us out of deficit at critical points. even Turner gave him a 3 foot assist. Harkless was like a blank paper--- 2 points and O boards. A three point win is way better than a four game losing streak.

    Turner missed 4

    We should beat Denver. We match up well with them and Nurk loves playing against them.

    If it takes 15 '3's from Dame and Sauce to scrape out a win against a sub .500 team with a starter out, playing it's 3rd game in 4 nights....
    ...I would submit the Blazers might be in a bit of a funk.

    Our run last 4 minutes left in the 3 QT was where we really step on D with the lineup of Dame Curry Nurk Zach ET. This not 1st time this year with ET Nurk and Zach on front line that it excel on defense.

    Anybody else concerned we needed an heroic 10/15 on 3-pointers from Dame in order to beat ORL by 3? No? Yeah, me neither...:smiley-shrug:

    The whole leagues except Toronto, BrewTown & GS are mediocre at best right now. I expect maybe a couple more teams to break away 3/4 into the season, but It won't be by much.

    Let me get this straight...

    After losing 3 in a row it took a halftime rant by Stotts and Dame going nuclear from 3 to win? I'm so fucking sick of hearing about these "epic" rants by coach Stotts. This team has become complacent. Even their comments prove they aren't too concerned about it.

    Something has to change, whether it's a trade or a coaching move or both.

    Are there any sacred cows on this team?

    I don't think there should be...

    Hi. I wasn't able to watch last nights game. But I saw twitter buzzing about Dame's 10 made 3's.

    Hi. I also have not read this entire thread.

    Hi. Can I ask something? Why did it take Dame to hit 10 god damn 3's for us to win by 3 pts at home to the fucking Magic? Are people talking about that? I'm guessing they are.....

    It feels to me like this team will give us some good stretches throughout the regular season, but they have 0 chance to win a playoff series unless major injuries happen
