    with 12 seconds left in a playoff game after he's been on the bench all game.

    We played like arse, they played great, yet they only just beat us. I like our chances over seven games.

    If you want a bright side its pretty easy to say that there is no way in hell CJ/Dame play this poorly at the same time the rest of this series. This game actually makes me think we are going to win the series even with the loss of HCA.

    I've tried my best to deal with Stotts but I'm officially on the "it's time to move on" bandwagon and honestly it was even before those last 2 bone head plays. You have to stop runs in playoff basketball with timeouts.

    Me too, cause that was a total embarrassment. Came out flat, and it's amazing they were able to get back in it. I think if the Blazers play defense like they did in the 4th, they can dominate from here out, but that's what it is going to take. This was a super poor showing.

    Exactly--this is our first time playing with home court. It comes with different expectations. We are the youngest team in the playoffs again.

    The playoffs always expose every team to what they really are, with this team who we are is a little better than mediocre if a team takes out Dame and CJ.

    When your prime ball handler takes way more shots that anyone else on the team, only gets one assist for every 2.5 missed shots while shooting 26% from the field, you have an extremely piss poor coach.

    Guys what are the effects of taking two pills of melatonin when it recommends one? I'm a big dude so I should be fine but I'm not trying to fuck myself up but I need to go to sleep.
