For the record, Scoot might not be what some people hoped for, but I don’t get why that would spark so much vitriol. He’s just a dude trying to live his dream.

What vitriol, exactly?

No one's questioning Scoot as a person. We're saying he hasn't played well, and how he does is vital to the progress of this team. Criticism of his play isn't criticism of him personally.
 
And this team gets another meaningless win. Of the next 21 games though they could get a really good losing streak going?

We’re actually closing in on reaching the play-in battle. Only 3.5 games behind the Suns.

the Suns are the 12th seed. Blazers are still 5 wins out of the play-in, like they have been for a couple of weeks, so they haven't "closed-in" on the play-in yet. And since the 10th seed is currently the Spurs, and the Spurs have already won the season series, the Blazers are 6 wins out of the play in

the way things are going it likely won't take 46 wins to hit 10th seed like it did last season. But it probably will take a .500 record, or 41 wins. Blazers would have to go 28-18 the rest of the way to get 41 wins. That's a .609 winning percentage and so far, only 6 teams in the league have hit the .600 mark

on the other hand, with last night's win, the Blazers have slipped to 7th in the lottery

purgatory-r-us

Fools are insecure and project it so easily
 
Im liking Dani's game more and more. Like the way he pushes the ball and his energy. Has an inside out game and seems to play well with upfront with Tou.
 
Where's the 10 minute long video of this game? Normally the Blazers do a 2-3 minute video (which they did, as usual) but NBA.com ALSO does a longer video, around 10 minutes for each game. But there isn't one for the Pelicans' game. Every other NBA game last night, sure, but not ours! I missed most of the first half when the Blazers were firing on all cylinders, so I wanted to watch it.

He’s played a ton since the injury. Last night was not the back end of a back to back

pick one—rob played last night and he's not going to play tonight. would you say he's looked fresh since the injury? I wouldn't go that far.
