    If Olshey had any balls he'd quietly put Mccollum on the block, but he doesn't, so I can't wait to hear him try and sell us on our inner development.

    But seriously, if he doesn't make serious moves at this deadline, Paul should fire him the day after.

    Cleveland looked bored to death for the first 3 quarters. Then they decided it was time to play and ran away and hid. Fairly predictable.

    Would have liked to see them get more shots for Nurk. When someone is 10-12.....FEED THEM!

    I've been saying this for years but more about the Blazers front office. They play it too safe.

    Bazz was 0-fer tonight...just didn't have it.

    What I don't get, is how do the Blazers give up 17 points in 18 minutes to a guy who hasn't seen the floor in 7 months?

    Sixers fans had a legitment argument. Do I agree with it? Idk, I'd have to watch it back. But there were 3 or 4 horrible calls against us in the 2nd half, and many questionable ones, which led to a huge FT disparity.

    LeBron. And Isaiah was hitting shots. Product of their offense. Dame played decent D against him today.

    I like what Dame said tonight. " If they played like that against most teams in the league.. That's a W. " or something like that.

    I agree.

    If you watched closely, Pat showed some promise his first two years.

    I haven't seen anything outside of his first game to make me think Layman sticks in the NBA

    He hasnt been good, lately.

    That being said, I don't think he's out for good. I think Stotts is sending a message.

    The entire media are in cahoots with the refs to keep Portland down. Don't you know anything?

    Let's give ET less minutes in the game where we need people to guard Lebron. Not only that, let's put Shabazz in. He's big enough.

    When ET got his 6th foul was when the Caves started in in ernest. He has played great last three games. Maybe he wants out.
