    If we manage to even get out of the first round I won't post for the rest of the year (the year of 2015 that is not just the basketball "year.")

    I predict Stotts will start out his post game interview with "I liked the way we competed"

    Shaq telling it like it is. Curry can't play like this in a playoff series. Aldridge has shown he can.

    Aww that'd be a tough price for us to pay, but I'll accept it.

    Hell, I'll join you in that, just to help.

    I wonder if we'll rest guys, esp Lillard, now that HCA is unlikely.

    Portland had control of that game, but just gave up their 13-point lead way too quickly. I don't care if Green or Iggy or Barnes are wide open, force them to beat you, rather than leave Curry assigned to a single defender. At some point, you have to send a fucking double ... but Terry Stotts seems to believe they don't exist.

    GS gave up an 11 point lead quickly too.

    I'm just not as optimistic as KingSpeed. He thinks it is a for sure thing we are advancing to face the Warriors. We may have had a shot with Afflalo but now we have no chance. Unless CJ is a Kobe clone, we have no bench. absolutely 0 bench. If the Blazers surprise me I would be more than happy to stop posting for the year.

    I felt a little discouraged about this game. I thought Portland bigs especially could have played with more heart, especially rebounding. Discouraged they weren't prepared to defend
    GS inbounds plays. Discouraged with Lillard's defense. Only thing encouraging was McCollum's play; he really has the instincts, both on defense and offense.

    Agreed, but... CJ is much closer to a Kobe than Mo was...
