    I didn't get that sense at all. He gave his usually politically correct answers.

    I’ve been saying he’s been over Stotts since about the spurs game at home, whenever that was. Stotts doesn’t have his backing anymore. He gone.

    Fire Olshey. A new GM would make sure the other 2 items occurred

    Kinda sad that the guy that we had been trying to get for over a year was the one to put the nail in the coffin. Meanwhile Norm misses a key three that might have given us a shot.

    Sorry i laid into you earlier. Just was not in the mood for the negative take until this game had happened.
    Now we can all watch what happens and hopefully the Blazers come out of it a better team.

    That's because I did not believe, for one second, that the Blazers with their entire squad available could lose a game to a Denver team with no point guards except Monte Morris and Austin Rivers, neither of whom were anything when the season began. So, I prepared myself for the Blazers to advance by touting a sweep. I can't stand the over-hyped Blazers and did not want to see them advance, but I had to face up the reality that Denver was going to lose cuz they had no point guards. How the hell could that Blazer team lose to a team with no point guards? That is what I mean by saying that the Blazers are totally overhyped. Can't wait to see what The Oregonian says now after this disaster. This is the biggest disaster in the history of this franchise. They lost the series to a team that had no point guards.

    But Aminu and Harkless still sucked and Melo will get calls in the 4th and win you some games and he’ll smile & laugh when he fucks up.

    Lol.

    You hated the over hyping of the Blazers so you over hyped them? Btw, you used the word reality in a hypothetical situation... and then the reality became the opposite of your hypothetical.

    Like... wut?

    Yeah, and I’m sure CJ, who plays just as many minutes, wasn’t exhausted at all!
