    wow...I'm going to disagree here...we've been trying to replace Sabonis for decades and you think money buys you a center better than Nurk? I don't buy this at all....who is this expensive upgrade we can go into the luxury tax to sign now?

    I take Nurk over everyone on your list....B Lopez hasn't played defense in his whole career and Adams is lucky to ever get a double double....Drummond doesn't take over games in Detroit and Nurk destroyed Gobert in the paint. Horford and P Gasol are PFs who couldn't guard Nurk....and Nurk is younger than all of them

    Being younger, and who I'd want, wasn't the question I responded to

    Our bench sucked. But a couple of things about that: Our starting center, and our two best backup centers are injured/out; Blazers are the youngest team in the league. Result: We're over matched so any win is going to be an upset.

    It's only one game. A game we were expected to lose. Now that the first game gitters are out of the way, our bench play will improve. Also: Nurk will be back for game three. Book it. Wish I had tickets.

    I have lost all respect for Whoriers fans. They are approaching Laker fan levels. Remember their run in 2007? I had nothing but support for their long-suffering wrong side of the tracks fans. Now? Their arena is full of douche bag idiots. I'm going to laugh so hard when they don't win the championship.

    Ha! Good for CJ!

    On one side of things, I'm proud of the Blazers for not getting goaded into fighting by Green's taunting ass, but on the other side I wish they would stand up for themselves

    Just came here to say fuck Kevin Durant, opportunist piece of shit. I hope he never wins a championship, not even as a role player at age 40.

    Just finished watching the game. 2 things:

    1. We would have won with Nurk.
    2. Fuck Meyers

    3. We got the best combined scoring ever from Dame and CJ and still lost.
    4.Aminu can't drive the ball except in his own mind.
    5. Crabbe and Turner had better come to the party tomorrow.
    6. This shit ain't going to be easy.
