    Meyers as a constant physical annoyance is his role he’s just not smart enough to do it

    Put Bill Laimbeer’s head on Meyers and my god!!!!!

    Exactly zero players in the NBA are even the slightest bit concerned about Meyers being able to stop them from scoring. He's so worthless on defense.

    OK, this 8-0 run to finish the quarter was another thing that shouldn't happen. I want us to clamp down on defense to start the 4th, get a stop on every possesion!

    Really did not like those last two possessions by the Blazers. No passing, no ball movement....just Dame dribbling until he shot. That is not what built the lead.

    There must be a "Score on me" sign taped to his back.

    They forgot to keep passing the ball. Would have been nice to have a coach remind them of what was working....

    The NBA equivalent of a "kick me" sign... and he's the biggest dork in the league.

    That might've been the best individual defense Meyers has played this year.

    Just think If the Knicks get Williamson, there will be a million memes with Mt. Zion in the background and Williamson coming over the top for a dunk.

    Actually now that I think about it. The Anti-Defimation League might nix that idea.
