    I expected Denver to win tonight but I also expected us to play a lot better. So THAT was disappointing.

    I'm zero surprised lol, Stotts is a bad coach who get's outcoached every playoffs. And the Blazers have been a lazy terrible defensive team all year year, so it was pretty obvious that they wouldn’t play with the same intensity in the next game

    We had a shot, but they way we closed the 2nd quarter, that gave all the momentum back to Denver. Finishing Q’s strong is the key, we did that in game 1

    Valiant effort by Dame, but when it's 1 versus 8 on the court, it's tough to win

    Denver with the worst interior defense in the last 25 years....and the Blazers attack the paint hardly at all. There is no shot blocking in there but yet the Blazers were content to jack away from the outside instead of aggressively attacking the basket. This is a game (where if you have the strategy built in) players like Powell and Little could have a field day.

    Dame was incredible.....and they still got torched. Pretty disappointing.

    Whelp.

    Time for Terry to adjust.

    I have my doubts. Please prove me wrong, Terrance.

    the only adjusment he will make is figuring out which suit to rock at the rose garden.
