    You realize that's still the worst in the league right?

    Look up Nate's last four years in "close games", then get back to me.

    Oh wait. I already did that!

    What exactly does that prove? That Brandon Roy and Andre Miller are good clutch players?

    Actually I heard CIP say the same thing this morning around 6:20am, but you're definitely the second person I heard it from. Haha....

    Clutch players that never got out of the first round of the playoffs?

    I know it hurts many of you to give Nate credit, but I'm going to stand up for the best coach Portland has had since Rick Adelman. Unless, of course, Nate being respected enought to be a Team USA coach is all because of Brandon Roy and Andre Miller.

    Miller's sucking pretty bad recently in Denver, fwiw. It's funny to look at Miller's career advanced stats, and see that Nate has used 'Dre more efficiently in terms of PER than George Karl has as a coach.

    Dunleavy was a better coach.

    The Blazers problems have nothing to do with Nate. Never have. He's milked this team, every year, for every thing they've got. They've just never had elite and at times experienced talent.

    Notice Mark Jackson in the huddle, last play of the game? Did NOT look confident, not to mention his assistant was the one drawing up the play.

    If you're going to go with that, shouldn't Nate receive blame for not being able to get out of the first round.....for three consecutive seasons?

    Bullshit. Dumbleavy failed to win a title with the best roster money could buy. He criminally misused Arvydas Sabonis. He was terrible.
