    How many more proof do you need that this team is fucking mediocre?
    At this point, isn't it better to get swept and hope that Paul Allen understands that he needs to make a lot of changes?

    Extending or even winning this series would be deleterious for our long term future.

    I don't wanna hear Dame in the exit interview after we got swept by Golden State saying that we are good and that Stotts is the best coach in the world and all of his BS, I'm fucking tired of this.

    Extending the series would give Olshey another reason to extend this fucking mediocrity, we would be at this exact point a year from now.

    I WANT TO SEE AN ENJOYABLE TEAM, IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR?

    Please become a fan of a different team because this isn't changing. Did you become a fan in 2014 or something?

    Basketball gods hate us so much that I wouldn't be surprised if we managed to win this series, maybe with the help of an injury to Holiday or Davis who are injury prone.

    Thats one of the main gripes I have with this current team. They don't play intelligently or with toughness.
    It has made the Blazers much less enjoyable to watch the past few years - and unfortunately is ingrained into them because of the play styles of Stotts and Lillard.
    If we played tough, scrapped hard and played intelligent basketball - and then were still down 2-0 to the Pelicans - then I can cheer for that.
    Not that we have lost, but the way we have lost is terrible planning, execution + effort; and makes it really hard to cheer for lackadaisical low-IQ basketball.

    Hopefully Mr Allen sees this sand is willing to do what is necessary to bring intelligent basketball back to Portland.

    It's so good to see people trying to make it personal thinking I would react, biased Blazers fans have no arguments now that their mediocre team is exposed so their only option is to make it personal.

    You guys are like the casual role player trying to trash talk to a superstar, it ain't working.

    I enjoy watching the Blazers play in the playoffs, even if they lose. It sucks to lose, but AD is a top 3 player in the NBA. That doesn't make the Blazers bad and awful to watch. It just means AD is really god damn good.

    It'd be one thing if we were losing because of AD - but that's just not the case. AD had the same number of points as Nurkic in this game before Nurk left with the injury. We are getting killed in the backcourt, which is mindblowing that I am not going to be able to sleep tonight.

    Well, AD absolutely killed us game one, and the Blazers decided to play him REALLY hard this game. We got super physical with him, helped when he went inside, etc... But he still had 22/13/2/2 (5 tos though). Holiday was owning our back-court, but a lot of that was because no one was willing to help off of AD when he got to the rim. I thought AD was pretty bad on defense before this year, but that's no longer the case. The Blazers are terrified of him at the rim, and rightfully so.

    I do agree that it's super unfortunate that our back-court is getting beat up on, though. The worst part is that I actually thought CJ had a pretty good game..
