    Ya, I wish our Blazers could play more teams missing key players

    Whiteside was disappointing this year, but all it took was watching 3 minutes of Meyers to remind me why we made that trade.

    Just finished watching Game 2.
    Only thing "OLD" out there tonight was the Old Fashion Ass Whoopin' the Heat got.
    Wish this had teams more evenly matched. Denver vs Boston would have been fun.

    Injuries happen! They are never an excuse... NEVER! Spo needs to adjust better. Show at least something other than desperation 3's and what is it with relying on Butler when he is being doubled? If they had some kind of motion other than trying to split the defenders they might be able to free up some other options. Spo needs to get Alexander in there and move with Vincent. Never mind they are two way players that are up from the G-league.
    Real Coaches know how to use what they have.

    Is that what you were looking for? Let me know if that covered it? I mean Spo has Meyers Leonard available just like the Blazers did last year in the Conference Finals. There is absolutely no excuse for them to get swept. Pretty sure Bam needs to get out there just Like Kanter did. Herro is a Rookie so he should have plenty of energy left right just like Simmons.

    At some point you need to have the "Talent" to compete.

    Ya, that point is entering training camp. It always cracks up on here when people don’t acknowledge that USUALLY, the more talented team wins. Especially when it comes to our own Blazers.

    The Lakers have no sense of urgency right now. That being said, can you blame them, they've seemingly been able to turn it on and off at will throughout these playoffs and although at most times they've played down to their competition, they've won all but three of their games. I expect that they'll turn it on again right now and get the lead and the win.

    Miami should play Meyers more. He’s great.

    Well it looks like the Heat will pull this one off. Very impressive. The Lakers have to bring a better effort than that. I still think they will win the next two and go 4-1 in all of their playoff series.

    Baby lebron wouldn't even stay on the court so the heat could dribble it out to end the game. Ran off to the locker room..

    Really lebron? What a shitty teammate and a poor loser. Fuck the lakers and these dopey superteams.
