    Everything fell apart with Moe and Ed’s injuries. This team is not playing like a 3rd seed right now.

    Well that pretty much answers any questions about who we don't want the Blazers playing in the first round.

    11 FT attempts, with all that physicality, BS Shabazz alone should have had multi And 1's. Man! I will admit that Blazers rebounding wad dooky tonight. Ed alert.

    Not really. They can beat these fools. That is, as long as Refs Pete, & Repeat aren't officiating.

    Need Ed back on Monday. And need Zach to not play like a rookie.

    If we can't even beat Memphis and Dallas without two role players, then what does that tell you?

    Whatever MediocreMan is going to say about us as fans and the team in general is absolutely right, I’m sure.

    With the way they're playing does it really matter who they play?

    Like I posted earlier, everyone out West are all playing hard and ready for the playoff push except the Blazers. This is a 4 game losing streak going to our last game.

    My main issue with this team: HERO BALL. Some guys walk the ball up the floor and don't even wait for their team mates ... either they shoot a three with no rebounder under the rim, or they just try to score by themselves going against the 4 defenders.
    Every time we run a decent offense by moving the ball and getting better shots, we look better.
    Our offense looks so predictable.

    Ed is not as unimportant as you think?

    Well all season long, we knew the last week would be tough. That's why we had to go on the 13 game win streak. We knew this would be tough. Monday will be our toughest game of the year. In Denver at the end of a road trip against a team fighting for its life. We'll likely lose. But at home against Utah feels good. We'll see.

    Nah that team is deep and they don't make mistakes when it counts. Playoffs are where Popovich shines.

    Yes Dane shooting 50% tonight was definitely the problem.
