    Does it seem to anyone else that the absence of Will, TRob and Claver smells like a move is in the works?

    Well so far he sure has looked like one, so maybe it's fair to call him one until (if/when) he proves otherwise.

    TRob might have helped the Blazers not get killed on the Offensive Boards.

    Agreed, especially considering we couldn't grab a defensive rebound to save our lives tonight.

    CJ out-performed him in the preseason when the spot was up for grabs.

    Pre-season vs Playoffs.....I guess if that is how Stotts wants to make decisions.

    Playing NBA defense or trying to seems to water down CJs offensive instincts

    I'm sure he just needs to make a shot or maybe a free throw.:lol:

    I always see more turnovers from him than the boxscore says. Supposedly 3 tonight. They're always careless turnovers, from lazy overdribbling or lazy passes. He thinks he's a genius multitasker, but he's just distracted and diverted.

    I was reluctant to keep him when the Wolves tried to blow down our house. I said, give them a little piggy ballhog. Last season, I said that Batum was just a taller Mo, but not as good of a shooter or playmaker.

    I don't think he is. This may not be the right situation for him. But the dude has skills.

    Portland coaches have to get him going. And if they can't, they need to move him and get something that can help the bench in return while the perceived value is still there.

    I was impressed with Aldridge taking more long jumpers and Lillard forcing bad shots

    Offense has no rhythm right now. How long have these guys played together again?

    Fuck. Now what am I going to do at 3 AM? Watch losers? Fuck.

    Sorry about the non-answers earlier but tbh, it took me about 30 minutes to figure out how to take a picture of of my drums and post it on the forum using my phone, uploading to Imgur, etc. which was my first S2 posting attempt with a phone. I'm a tech nerd.

    I really pissed we lost this game. Who's awake and wants to fight?

    Damn, that 'roo is on steroids. Probably hit 715 home runs in the Aussie league.

    Please, we're more advanced in our drug cheating than that here.

    Essendon deny reports claiming players were 'used as human guinea pigs' to test banned substance

    Disgracefully, the whole team beat these allegations.
