anyone they add should be a tough, gritty defender, period

Portland should throw their entire cap money at Dellavadova. Great defensive guard off the bench

It doesn't seem to me that Aldridge would leave Portland. I don't really know either way, but he said he wants to win, and no team that he would go to has any better chance than Portland of playing well. He'd get more money in Portland because of the salary cap, I think too. He's from the Dallas...

On the way to visit my dad this morning, Coach Stotts was on ESPN radio with Mike Lupica, I think? He did a great job breaking down the teams int he finals, but then said something that I really didn't like, and wanted to see what you big time Blazer fans thought. Towards the end of the...

Portland should stay the course. My lifetime of early playoff exits and also-rans seem to be ok with the fan base as long as players and coaches are likeable. If it's ok for fans, why try to improve?

Any discussion of all defense in a blazer forum should be OT -my dad

Oh youre one of those? Just re-read it tomorrow then

From the little i have read here. Meyers Leonard starting, Wes Matthews playing and the Blazers just making open shots gets a series sweep. Portland can do two of those tonight , people say. Keep the faith. Or not, i really dont care

I dont know the NBA but my dad is a coach, so i understand basketball somewhat. Portland seemed to barely make it out of round one last year and got run out of the playoofs in round two with Matthews. Is he really the reason for the games this year, or is it jyst a comforting excuse? I dont mean...

This is my first attempt at this, so here it goes. It seems to me great teams in every sport are built in a similar way. All sports playoffs seem to be a little slower and more physical. In baseball it helps if you have a dominant rotation and bullpen. In football it becomes a rushing and...
