    Super proud of this effort. The future is bright when you have this much character and heart. I hope Melo is re signed. He's made of the right stuff. And i see him keeping this fine tuned body. Get Hoody back, and Trevor. Maybe add a nice free agent shooter off bench. Bingo! Go Blazers!!

    Well. Pretty much anyone who has ever really paid attention and watched a lot of professional basketball knew this series was over after the absolute decimating loss in game two in which Lillard dislocated his finger and the Lakers cruised to victory leading by as much as 38 points at one point. The Game 4 loss that the Blazers decided to hand over a 15 point lead to start the game might have been the clue for the rest that couldn't figure it out.

    Nice to see them put out some effort tonight. I actually enjoyed the game.

    Tough season Blazers.
    Regroup and put together a solid team for next year.

    As always
    Kjironman is a fan!!!

    Illegitimate end to the season.

    None of this counts.

    I didn't even want to go to this fucking charade. Now Dame is injured. We don't get a lottery pick. What a colossal waste of time, which is what I said a few months ago.

    I've watched a lot of professional basketball. Probably more than you. And if you pay attention, teams come back from decimating losses all the time. Didn't happen to us but no real fan quits after Game 2.

    Difference between 16 vs 14 or 13 is really negligible.

    Oh yeah forgot about them. Would be cool if they won it all without Kawhi.

    The Lakers will definitely have a asterisk by their name should they win the title

    That's a total garbage take. Maybe time to find something else if you can't see why, what they did ,was important.

    If you didn't enjoy the seeding games and play-in, you must not love basketball. That was high level entertainment, Dame doing stuff that's rarely been done, Melo hitting clutch shots, CJ putting Grizzlies to bed. And if you thought it was a waste of time a few months ago, why have you bothered watching (if you have) and posting in this forum (which you have)? Don't you have better things to do with that time? Or is your whole life a waste of time? Seriously.

    Well, maybe we will wake up tomorrow to see that Terry has been fired. Doubtful though
