    Please play switching defense. We have the personnel. Allowing 118 to the wiz is unacceptable. And they didn’t even shoot well.

    I don't think so I think we'll take two of the next three. Unless of course we play a lot of quarters like the second tonight.

    Wiz beat Den a couple nights ago. Horrible shooting night. Bad Melo showed up. Sometimes a game like this helps the team refocus. I think we go 2-1 over next 3 games.

    won 6 out of our last 7... never saw that coming. If we can get 1 of these next 3, that's good enough!

    Overall ugly game. Not a good showing after winning 6 in a row.

    36% fg. The bench shot 5-25 fg. Ugh

    Ok. Put this one in the rear view mirror. On to the next game.

    It's such a rough loss because even a mediocre performance beats Washington. Two days off beforehand too, started off great and then cratered.

    The team was only a plus eight for the five minutes Little was in. He's gotta do better!

    Rodney doesn't look like he lost athleticism, but his shot is horrible, and that's the only reason he's in the league. How much time do you give him.

    We really missed CJ tonight offensively. Defensively I’m still baffled by Stotts thinking. It’s like he just randomly chose this game to go back to the passive defensive scheme that hasn’t worked all season. I thought we turned a corner on defense since we started switching more, and then we go back to this shit.

    Got to agree with you there. He needs to hit those open looks. He didn't hit them tonight. Then he tried a few too many times to force his jab step mid range that nobody falls for anymore. He couldn't even keep handles on the ball to get to his spots. Very tough night for Melo. Looks really old right now. Needs a couple weeks off.

    Rodney Hood floundered around out there tonight as well. Very tough game for Hood.

    Tonight showed how bad the Blazers need another PG. This game was lost in the second when Simons was supposed to be running the offense and it was bad.

    Every team has them. Lets hope it doesn't last more than a couple quarters in one game.
