    180 degrees from last game. I prefer it when Dame scores 10 and we win in a blowout, myself.

    And you know Errick McCollum has much to say to Dame.

    I wasn’t referring to Erick McCollum. The particular poster said “no comment”. I was hoping it might become a permanent thing……..

    Actually, the complete opposite. He said there was, “NO REASON WE SHOULDN’T SWEEP THE NUGGETS!”
    Where as I have said “Denver in 6” the whole time. With us having the worst defense and coach in the league, there was NO way we win this thing.

    What an amazing game by Dame.
    Going back and reading this thread just amazes me...... I would really think you guys would want to sit back and enjoy that historic game. Tells your kids about it someday. Tell them what Dame accomplished on the court.

    Tell them that our team completely failed Dame during his historic night? Do you like to go back and relive our game 7 loss to the Lakers?

    Nah, I saw (from the bench) my guy Terrell Brandon score 50 points in a rivalry game vs Jefferson for us in a jammed packed gym! Just like last night.....THAT’S what I remember bro! Not that Jason Beverage our starting PF blew a wide open layup with 5 seconds left to lose the game. Last night Dame made history and all some on here will remember is Roco’s missed dunk and CJ stepping out. Sucks, but that’s the game FAMS!

    To date, this is the only game where I've watched the highlights after we lost. Thats saying something.

    I just keep hoping that another superstar will see this and be like "I can win a championship with Dame. I want to go play with him."

    How a fan of a team is supposed to find enjoyment in that team underperforming yet again is beyond me.

    I imagine this is probably how Dolphins fans felt when they had Dan Marino.

    What's beyond me is how a fan of a team is so busy bitching about everything, they can't get any enjoyment out of witnessing first hand historic performances.

    I was heartbroken last night but God damn if I didn't watch the highlights several times.

    I am gutted that it was in a loss, but it was still amazing. I just hate that it won't be revered in a win. Now it's attributed to the greatest playoff game in a loss.

    Still amazing though.

    The whole Blazer team should call Dame today and apologize for not helping him last night. Dude went SuperNova with no help… smh

    At least we can take solace in the fact that hopefully Stotts and CJ will be gone after this.

    And maybe another star will see what Dame is doing and be like "I can win with this guy."

    The one that killed me was when Dame had the ball at the top of the three point line, and instead of resetting to get him a shot, he passed off and Powell totally bricked a corner three.

    I just keep thinking that one day we will have role players that hit open shots, like so many other teams seem to have in spades.
