    wasn't me, i don't rally the Lakers after they lose a tough one. My post would say, "Get LeBron & AD some damn help!"

    Zebras cost money and don’t really act like horses.

    I saw James take a dive, then complain from his backside to the nearby official. That Denver championship money was invested well.

    Great to see.

    More importantly (to the future of the Blazers), what is Sharpe up to?

    This is great news since we are still 2 months away from when most trades happen. He needs to build some trade value. The worst-case scenario is we have to keep him for another two years. I am ok with that.

    Not sure if you want to listen to this but nobody really knows?
    Lets hope he is getting in shape and taking care of the things he can work on.

    I'd love to keep him another year if he can stay healthy for most of it. He's definitely a difference-maker when he's on the court.

    we know

    Cronin hates Pat Riley, and Lillard is stuck in Wisconsin instead of drinking margaritas in South Beach.

    I hadn't watched a second of basketball in months. I tuned in and watched two possessions, the second one Dame hurts his knee. Welp, might be done with the NBA until the draft again. Zero interest at this point other than hoping to high heaven that Boston loses.

    Why can’t the Blazers play like the Pacers? Give it to scoot and run

    Liilard tags one. Pacers lead cut to 2. Carlisle calls timeout.

    Around 10 yrs ago, Dame had one of his signature Dame time performances in a triple OT game in San Antonio against a pretty formidable Spurs team. I thought tis was around the time he really elevated to star status in the league.

    Hubie Brown was calling that game on ESPN.

    I think I've seen the highlights from that game 100+times.

    Pretty wild that Hubie is still calling games at age 90. And pretty wild that Dame is still controlling games in the clutch.

    Pacers fans thought this game would be an easy win tonight. Especially when Dame went down.
