    Our lack of a post game is a glaring weakness. If we make the playoffs, expect to see what we're seeing but times ten. It's going to be embarrassing if Stotts doesn't figure out a counter.

    Here we go...good ol' Stotts: play Hacka-Jordan instead of basketball.

    I like that Terry doesn't back down from Doc's bullshit.

    We couldn't play any worse. Luckily they only played a little better.

    How is it that Terry has yet to figure out a counter the Clippers' trapping defense against Dame in 4 seasons now? Terry can make adjustments. We saw that last night.

    God damn. Stop sending a pick, run weakside shit to throw their attention and let Dame go 1 on 1.

    Dame has never been able to figure out the Clippers defense. His career averages against the Clippers are worse than awful.

    Lillard, Crabbe, and Henderson are a combined 2 for 18 FG. Wow. Good to see Ed Davis picking up the offensive slack keeping us in the game. Let's go Blazers!!

    Did Lillard contribute anything positive in that whole half? He may be the worst shooter on the team. He is a detriment to our team. I give this thing a year before everyone is calling for his head.

    Horrible way to end a half. Hack a Jordan only takes your offense out of rhythm, I've seen it happen time after time around the league. Lucky to be only down 7, I think the Blazers bench has to significantly out perform the Clippers bench for the Blazers to have a shot at the end.

    Chris Paul never misses. What a comparison, when he and Lillard are on the same court.

    Its not hard to expose us. We have absolutely no presence inside at all offensively or defensively. Take dame and cj out of the game and it's so hard to watch. Constantly watching Plumlee pass out of the middle. Ed Davis has been our only good big but it's not on post ups. Usually on the roll.

    They constantly body check him with impunity and double team him 25 feet from the hoop, and we never try anything different. Of course he's going to play like shit.

    Lack of wing shooting just plays into it. Henderson, Aminu, and Crabbe HAVE TO make the wide open corner 3.

    Stotts fault. And of course the one player that took advantage of the Clippers defense only plays 12 mins.
