    I'm surprised you didn't ban more. :lol:

    Seriously, our Blazers may have lost the game, but they set the bar high this season. As a loyal Blazer fan for well over 30 years, I must say this team made me proud. They came into the season with a roster overhaul and were determined to show they don't give up.

    We are in the 2nd round against the best team and took them the distance in game 4. I expect our boys to come out just as determined even though they are down 3 games to 1. That's the great thing about this team. They don't give up. Go Blazers!

    I think of the remaining teams I'd root for Raptors first (they never won anything), then Miami. Dislike the Cavs mostly because LeBron gets on my nerves. In the west I think I dislike SA least. I really don't dislike them. I have nothing against OKC except they took the team out of Seattle and their winning would make it more likely Durant would stay. Try living in Oakland - I don't want the Warriors to repeat! Sick to death of these bandwagoners who a year and a half ago could maybe name one player on the team and now are all putting 4 Warriors flags on their gas guzzlers.

    Was insulting people, calling them names and talking shit. I have no problem with Warrior fans being here but if you're going to be an ass you're gone.

    I wouldn't a Blazer fan who needed to vent after a rough loss like that. I may not agree with what they're saying but that's not a reason to ban someone.

    Don't count us out yet. We need to think just the next game, try to finish with 2 wins instead of 1, then if we somehow take this game we're back home for game 6. It's unlikely and I don't know how many times happened but I do remember this one series that brought us all the way to the final quarter of game 7. We're down but we're not out, if we win the next one on the road we can at least believe we have a chance

    When he's got the ban hammer out, everyone looks like a nail.

    It's funny, I think there was a poll on here right before or right after Game 1 and most people (myself included) said that they objectively thought the Blazers would win 1 game in this series. They have done that and been in contention for 2 of the other 3 games. Blazers are outperforming even our own expectations. No reason to bash.
