    You know when someone's gonna have to pay attention to us? April, when there are 2 to 3 games a night and we're hosting one of them.

    If anyone finds a highlight of Nurk ripping his jersey I really want to turn that into a gif.

    Saw something from Collins tonight. That turnover and his response at the end is not something you see from 20 yr old rookies.

    Great win

    It sucks but that's fine. This is a young team, and those jokers are going to have to put up with our team for a long time to come.
    They need glasses badly. And some cheese to go with that whine.

    There were bad calls both ways. They do have a right to bitch about that out of bounds call, though.

    Just as we have as much of a right to bitch about that goaltending call.

    Going to give some props to Meyers too tonight. With Nurk and ED in foul trouble, played some quality minutes to get to the 4th and beyond, and held his own. Bravo.

    You have a special team when bench players step up and contribute vital plays leading to victory. These youngsters are beginning to pay dividends on a nightly basis. No way the Blazers win this game last year. It's a beautiful thing to watch.

    Nurk is fine. He's a passionate dude who hates to lose. It's all apart of his development. When a less skilled palooka like Adams gets all the calls against you, the frustration is gonna happen. He will rebound from this, and kick arse.

    I think Nurk is Damian's protege. Damian will settle him down over time.

    We know Ed Davis has Zach Collins. It makes me think that might be part of why we didn't trade Ed. His value in this team>> what we could get in trade.

    Working with three small guards WORKS because everybody else are plus defenders. And all our three guards are sharp shooters. Notice how we are runnng teams off the floor. We aren't playing two quarters, blowing one, and then losing in the end. This is great BB and next year we go over the cap to keep everybody!
