    Blazers have a bright future 2. A healthy Nurkic and Kanter and this wouldn't even be a series

    Let me explain it in terms where u can understand. Denver is the 8th youngest playoff team in history and is breezing thru the playoffs.

    I don’t understand why with home court advantage we can’t take over

    They barely beat San Antonio in Game 7 and this series is tied 2-2.

    Fuck off.

    One other thing: Fuck you to the stupid bitch sitting behind me tonight. Late in the 4th quarter she tapped me on the back and asked me to sit down.

    DON'T GO TO THE FUCKING GAMES IF YOU'RE GONNA BE A CUNT. THIS IS THE FUCKING PLAYOFFS. I'LL FUCKING STAND THE WHOLE FUCKING GAME IF I WANT TO.

    Dude????
    As of the beginning of the 2018 season the Nuggets were the youngest team in the league. Guess who was second?
    Denver 24.72 years old
    Blazers 24.78 years old

    You are literally listening to ESPN and TNT and trying to make a point here?

    I would have laughed in her face and told her to stand up. Should have bought a seat closer to the game i guess. That way she could look at her phone and look up when the crowd got loud.

    I just looked right at her and her "man" and said "It's the fourth quarter of a playoff game, how about we stand up cheer our team on?"

    Could be next year or a decade. That is why you got to enjoy it when it happens.

    yeah...Denver, once again, was feasting on offensive rebounds and Zach played 20 minutes and had 1 rebound. I mean, for chrissakes, Seth Curry had 3 rebounds. Turner only played 12 minutes and had 4 rebounds. How does Zach only grab 1?

    Im loving this series. These two teams are so competitive, and you never feel cheated watching them, every player on the court is playing with everything they've got.
    I wouldn't be surprised if this goes 7. Great basketball.
    Already pumped for game 5!

    I didn't explore Denver forum too much but I saw some posters stating that this playoff run is just experience builder for them and they got all they wanted: 7 games against Popovich, 4OT game and defending Damian Lillard. Last one is vital for them for the future, but I think it will be diferent song when we got Nurk back in the lineup.
    So I think point RSC60 is making is what I just wrote. Point he's missing is Blazers are one step ahead of Denver in my eyes. Fan base is "bit" impatient here (I am as well) cos our cake is baking not so smooth and one day we fire Stotts and another go for championship.

    In my opinion Blazers are good. We are deeper then anyone expected us to be just few months ago, Lillard has taken his game to another level in terms of BB IQ, CJ is smarter (sometimes not), Harkless got his head back on his neck and we still waiting for Nurk. I expect huge bust of respek in the league next season and I see bright future. Denver is in difficult situation. They are good, but they are not better then Blazers.
