    Me neither. Reggie Miller planted some permanent hatred seeds in me last night. He just got added to my list of people I'd rather not meet than meet; him and Donald Trump, Kevin Durant, Dustin Hoffman, Kanye West, et al...

    Beautiful put. Just cut-and-paste this ^^^ everytime that idiotic argument (re)surfaces.

    Reminds me of when we were stumbling at the end of last season and people were fixated on our seed rather than our play...

    Who's planning the Rally at Pioneer Square? On seconds thoughts, forget Pioneer Square (To many Mole people). How about Rose Quarter?

    The weighting is for sure higher now but let’s see what happens during the playoffs. If they start to roll and advance to second round or beyond then it’s possible they are tracking well.

    I've hated Reggie for years. But last night was worse than anything I can recall. And it has nothing to do with him balking at Jet/Chuck - I totally agree with him there. But the "head butt" commentary, and the way he questioned all calls in Portland's favor and defended all calls in OKC's favor was beyond nauseating.

    And apparently he's an Old Testament god. I fucking HATE Turner. But Curry is about 10x worse.

    Dame played over 47 minutes last night in a game that was only 5 minutes longer than regulation. I don't like seeing that this late in the season.

    hopefully, Stotts limits Dame's minutes against the Suns....and yeah, I'm assuming a relatively easy win
