    What happened to all the ball movement and assists we had last game. Completely different offense this game and if it wasnt for dame, this game would already be over.... Come on blazers!

    This defense is no better than the defense you see at a 24 hour fitness run.

    Pretty much. Has me super excited for game 3 and game 4 and... Yeah, it is going to be the same tale. Stotts is a moron and has no clue how to adjust. I bet he is awful at chess.

    Powell had an open corner 3 that he missed in the third quarter. It was a big miss because it's about as easy as that shot is gonna get.

    OBVIOUS counters here. just OBVIOUS.

    you stotts fans wonder why people want this guy gone-- pay attention now.

    malone put gordon on Dame. we let them get away with that nonsense for 5 minutes in a playoff game without a single counter.

    We dont run sets to get guys like Norm or RoCo open 3s. Neither has had even a semi-clean 3pt look all game long. Of course they dont get going. It's just pick n roll and ISO and praying Dame and CJ save us no matter who our forwards are.

    I don't know how anyone could think this team was anywhere ready to play tonight mentally. Give up a wide-open corner 3. RoCo with a lazy 10-foot pass that looked like it was intended for Compazzo.

    This team never can be happy with success. They always have to make things hard for themselves.

    This shouldn't be a series. They've just given Denver all the reason in the world to believe they can get home-court advantage back.

    We can beat them with our shitty defense, if both CJ and Dame go off. But, looks like we got the wine hangover CJ tonight. I call him CJ Buttholem

    We had our good game, so everyone thought we could just take this one off.

    Well, thanks Blazers. I was going to procrastinate with my work, but I guess I don't have to waste my time watching this trash performance tonight.
