I wish Dame and Ant worked better together but it just seems more often than not they just do not mesh, no real synergy, I think that maybe at the deadline, but more likely nest summer. one of them may be traded and Ant appears the likely one to go. No hating on either guy, like them both but don't like the combo.

I really don’t know how this is the same team that beat Phoenix and New Orleans without Dame… they went from looking so good early in the season to just straight up bad. It's frustrating dude

This team is inconsistent. They've had the 17th ranked defense the last 10 games with Dame and Ant, but have had some really unfortunate late game letdowns, and people are out here acting like the sky is falling. The difference between this team being great or this team being bad is the difference of one or two possessions per game in your mind. Super dramatic.

A logical answer.

This is facts, not up for dispute.

I think the word you used was "Destroy". Blazers were in that game until 2 mins left. That is not destroy.
You seem to think you called something special when you said the Blazers would lose a game that was the 6th straight road game against a rested Nuggets team that is currently the best team in the west.
Here is the problem with your "The Blazers Suck" and "Blow it up and trade Lillard" narrative.
The Blazers are currently 17-16. They are 4 games back in the conference. They are expecting the return of a pretty decent defensive player and are heading towards the soft part of their schedule. They have a couple pieces they can trade around the deadline if a player that can make a difference becomes available. They have a roster spot available also and can even give up protections on a traded draft pick that would open up another draft pick to be traded as well. They were not a Tax threshold team last year so going into the tax will not be a repeater situation.
If your expectations for this years team are anything more than a stepping stone year then you will continue to make outlandish statements about the team. If you were actually paying attention you would see they are doing better than they should be and if the team can get even just a small upgrade at the deadline it might be a huge win going into this summer.
Chauncey Billups is a brand new coach. He is learning and working things out with what he has to work with. If you are thinking anything less than 3-4 years to build a winner then you should go frequent a different site. You seem to really like the Thunder and even the Nuggets. Maybe those are the teams you should be following?

Just a thought?
