    I'm not sure if they are in Wilsonville, but it doesn't hurt to call them and ask.

    No contracts, real people who know what the fuck they are talking about when you call for customer service, reasonable rates, great speeds, high reliability. I tell everyone I know about them, when they complain about Comcast or Centurylink.

    Atlanta don't have better player than us. They are back to back after playing Toronto. This was a must win game for us. Turner can't play more than 25 minutes he just doenst fit. If he is on the court we are losing. Dame need to comeback with his mind right because is about time to him put the team on the back and lead us to a streak. He's season high is only 39, it's time to have a big perfomance. Game against bulls is tough, and again they will be playing back to back, so another chance for the blazers to explore this and win.

    I watched the hawks Broadcasting because Blazers Broadcasting missed to many playing Action, and at one point in the 3rd, Nurkic got the Ball in the paint, he was right under the Basket with no defender on him, and then he made a horrible Pass who got out of bounds, and the hawks announcer said what the fuck is this guy doing? Why is he not dunk the Ball? Or at least a layup. That was sooo emberassing. Nurkic is a completely different Player that last Year. Remember when he said something about Bad Boys? He is soft af

    I think it’s so lazy to just blame Stotts. Or to just blame Olshey. Are they blameless, no. But how about the 13 guys who collectively make like $100,000,000 own their shit and play the right way.

    Teams who are in the top 5 are rebuilding, I doubt a rebuilding Team want's him, and btw he isn't worth a top 5 Pick

    Yes, and no. It would be easier if it was that simple.

    8 Pts (100% FT), 11 Reb (4 OReb), 4 Ast, 1 Stl, 4 Blk

    You'd like him to score a bit more, but apart from that, that's a great game. Unfortunately it also came with....

    3/11 FG, 4 TO, 5 PF

    Nurkic just needs to stop swiping at the ball, go up straight; have more awareness of other defenders in the key, not just his man; and GO UP STRONG!

    I'm sure he's aware of all these things, but saying, and knowing are easier than doing. Nurkic has all the physical tools, it's the BBIQ side of things he needs to work on. He's young, it takes time. Having a big man coach would help.

    First, watch that word.

    Second, Belinelli missed both dunks.

    That's right. Make CJ play teamball. Forbid Nurkic and Aminu to ever dribble. Should that be so difficult?
