    Showed some real resiliency, the problem is their resiliency has never been a question.

    Wev had a real problem guarding the three on this losing streak. That and getting out rebounded have led to some big problems.

    I predict a half dozen or more melt down threads by tomorrow. Usually just takes 2 losses but 3 is going to bring out the angry mob

    FG%
    Us - 38.7%
    Them - 50.6%

    3P%
    Us - 36.1
    Them - 53.3

    That's the game right there.

    Points in the paint
    Us - 32
    Them - 38

    Highlighted this because it's usually an area of weakness for us, and we played a team known for its inside presence; so I think we did pretty well.

    Turnovers (Points off turnovers)
    Us - 7 (11)
    Them - 14 (11)

    Twice as many turnovers as us, but we didn't hurt them on the scoreboard.

    Compare this to the Spurs last night:

    Turnovers (Points off turnovers)
    Us - 16 (25)
    Them - 13 (11)

    Near the same amount of turnovers, yet they made us pay when we did turn it over; we didn't.

    Maybe Wes's D is down due to his knee and leg strains recently. I know he is the iron man but if he can't get to a player for defence we might have to rest him for a bit.

    The refs cost us the game. Memphis traveled so many times, and there were so many BS calls.

    There should be some sort of "Stotts" rule, where if the official score keepers mess up on an inbounds, the team has the opportunity to take a free timeout.

    Oh, and I was wanting the Blazers to get Beno as the backup PG for quite awhile now, and looks like I was right!

    I had hoped to see this game at the Shilo Inn Cigar Lounge. Imagine my UTTER disappointment at the fact that they have Dish Network.

    Fuck you, Dish Network, Comcast, Blazer Media....whoever the fuck is responsible for that.

    Instead, I had to listen to two bitter assholes yell across the room at one-another over politics. For two and a half goddamn hours. Until they finally decided, 15 minutes before I stubbed my $10 Cigar out, to get a fucking table TOGETHER so that they didn't have to shout and bother everyone.

    On the upside, I did meet one other blazer fan casually there. He was with a group of 3 other guys. Nice guy; fed me info about the game on his phone.

    28 seconds left, down by 3, and we couldn't do it. Fuck my evening.

    Stotts better FIX THIS SHIT before I do, indeed, have a stroke. The ball's in your court, Coach. FIX IT. Bench Batum, fix Matthews....anything. Just fix it.

    Haha. There is one commercial that makes me want to commit violence. I want to beat that smug snarky condescending fucker in the Smirnoff commercials with a baseball bat. I will NEVER buy their vodka again.
