    Good loss last night. I don’t think they played their worst but the lack of effort was impressive.

    Melo is just happy being on the floor. He could care less about winning at this point.

    I would like for Jody Allen to ask Ariza for a private meeting; with all the teams he has been on and different coaches, what does he think about the situation in Portland?

    I'm sorry but when you win 5 titles and 3 titles respectively you get a pass. To put Stotts in their category to prove a point actually disproves your point even further.

    No it's not just about Stotts. He has a limited arsenal at his disposal to deal with these issues but he did have some options and he could have chosen to try them. Again i am probably not the best at second guessing. Just the way i see it.

    So this year has really annoyed me with NO or the management direction. I think signing Melo to be a starting PF was a mistake. Sign him if you’re filling out your bench, but sign someone else if your defense is bad and you need a starter to help the defense.

    Dame had a rough game for sure, but imagine being a Blazer fan and having this take. Go back and watch the games in January.

    Dame has carried this franchise for years.

    So you don't think Kerr or Pop are cashing it in this season? I never said Stotts was as good as them, nor do I think it.

    Pop cashed it in as soon as they acquired LaMarcus. It's been downhill ever since.

    The row was filled when I got here, but after my coughing fit, I’ve got the whole row to myself!
