    How is that possible with muray that they have 6 Guards. We got only 4. Ridiculous . But bastard malone is 10x the coach stotts is. Absolutely clueless . Can not wait til he and cj are gone

    This loss isn't definitive. Now, I've had Denver in 6 since they chose to play us the last game of the season but that doesn't mean I'll be right or this series is over. We will shoot better than that from three going forward. The problem is as ridiculous as them shooting 50+% from three is, they'll probably continue to do that because we are shit at three point defense. So what I'm saying is, yeah we will probably lose this series but no it's not a foregone conclusion.

    We lose game 4, it’s over. if we win game 4 need to get game 5 and finish them off in 6. If it goes game 7, Denver wins

    Other than shooting really bad, and playing porous defense, I don’t think we played that bad.

    We’ll get ‘em next time. Or maybe the time after that…

    Sam Mitchell: “They (Blazers) have to work so hard for their points”. Everyone sees the issues with the offence except the fucking coach of the team.

    if we have any hope of winning, game 4 is a must win. this team ain't coming down from a 3-1.

    i hate that my prediction for this series is coming true. said Nurk would be in foul trouble every game and denver wins in 5.

    Again a lot of silver lining. One of them is this team is next series. Atleast Stotts will be fired soon

    Blazers let the Nuggets reclaim home court advantage in what was just a horrible loss. No ways to sugar coat this one. Let's talk it out on the Blazer Uprise Postgame Show:

    Yeah we couldn’t hit. But how many Campazzo and JayMichael Green types do I gotta see have career nights on us.

    I mean I played competitive sports and any time my teams had a glaring weakness like that it was the first and last thing we trained on in practice. Yet, it feels like we’ve regressed over the years
