    I want stotts and melo gone. Dame i was big fan of yours but you are a pathetic coward. No pride no balls. Get rid of melo and stotts go to the management and demand their sacking after this Game!!!!

    At least we've got third in the Northwest sewn up. THEY CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY

    This is to be expected when playing without our starting PF and C. Let’s see how we are against the Clippers when the games matter.

    I hate the way this team plays. The last time I could really say that was before we even had Dame.

    Damn, it ain't even the playoffs yet and we're playing like this. At least Stotts is getting into playoff mode.

    I wouldn’t say all that but I agree u can blame Dame for allowing this. He seems pretty content. Not sure why

    I don't know something I heard that final standing would reflect the draft order so we could be hurt a lot of ways.

    Exactly my point. I can't get excited when we have close wins against bad teams and get blown out against good teams.

    That is a no win situation when you have to face the same team multiple times in short succession with a coach who sucks at changing things up at all.

    He is spending so much time pointing and directing and passing to get others involved, he doesn't shoot enough himself

    This just isn’t a good team. We will be swept in the first round and Terry Stotts reign of terror will finally end.

    We’re playing without our 7 foot PF and C. This game is meaningless. Wait til they come back.

    Next game will be worse but then there’s a Kool-aid delivery at home vs Detroit after so half this board can spend a night shinning this turd. I’m done this season, I hate Stotts so much I don’t even want him to succeed anymore.

    So you admit these games don't matter when you told me for years every game matters.

    Which is it?

    This is what seems to consistently happen when we face real competition.

    Saying this for years
    I'm calling it. This team gets broken up in the offseason.

    Seriously, what's the point? No defense. Our center that people used to say was better than CJ misses more games than he plays and two out of every three games he's just not with it ... I think the guy might be dealing with depression and I feel for him, but he needs to get that treated somewhere and we can't keep him just because he's in an emotional pit.

    This team has looked way way too bad against good teams. Losing is one thing. Getting blown out on a regular basis ... if you can't compete with playoff teams, then making the playoffs don't matter.

    Start from scratch. New GM. New coach. New everything.
