    Which is why I didn't want to lose Melo.

    Was channeling my inner Blazer homer and expecting a 20 point win. Besides, Mike Barrett used to tell me all the time when another team was missing massive amounts of players that it was hard to prepare for players you didn't know and they had nothing to lose and were playing loose.

    Doesn't it work the same way we have a ton of players out or is that only the other team per Barrett?

    Nurkic picks up a lot of unnecessary fouls. If you want to bump Porzingis, don't do it when he's dribbling past you.

    Tony Snell has no business getting an NBA contract

    What's the point of a 3 guard lineup if they (the team) score 13 points. Thanks a lot Chauncey Billups.

    Nobody here would've started both Snell and 3 guards.

    Is there any way to find out dribbles taken per point scored? I think CJ would be the league leader.

    Already gave up 10 points off fast break. Totally getting dominant out on the floor right now.

    Saying this for years
    The tank people should love this. Team loses a game it almost had to try to lose, loses two forwards late in the game, and this won't be close.

    That's why, if you aren't tanking, you need to play smarter with the lead than the Blazers played last night. But Nurk still thinks he's Dikembe Mutumbo and Watford thinks he's Ray Allen, and we lost a game we had no business losing. Now we're going to be on a losing streak. Except we're still going to end up in the top 10 in the West because the teams below us are ugly bad.
