94 three-ptFGA tonight. I was hoping for 100....but the way things are going in the association, that will probably be a new normal
 
King root for them to play well and for the young players to do good stuff without getting the W but rooting for a win is like pouring water into a sinking ship and thinking it's helping cause winning is doing nothing in terms of helping for the future If you cannot get that then whatever your kind of a joker anyways so you can be funny at times ( lightening the mood ) so I will give you that even if your dead wrong on this one.

I have no control over the outcome. None. I root for our young players to get better, get better at what?, get better at winning. Even if we don’t make the play-in, these last 6 weeks of games will be meaningful because they’re trying to make the play-in. This is Shaedon’s third season. He needs this as part of his development. If you want to root for losses, go for it. I have no problem with you.

Ugh. Pathetic performance against a Boston team with three starters out. This team is not even close to being good.
 
Fans are so fickled from game to game. We didn’t play bad Boston just had two guys make 20 3 pointers. We’re at the end of a long road trip and bound to have some games we struggle in. Doesn’t take away any of the wins or close loss we had to Cleveland. Overall really happy with this road trip and never once quit

I'm not being fickle. We're not good yet. I've been saying we're not good. We're not going to be good for a while.

That's why playing vets to win right now is so unwise and frustrating.

they are as far as I'm concerned. It's one big mess of freeways and traffic. Beaverton and Aloha are Portland too. Forest Grove isn't

No. That’s like saying the barnacles on a whale are also the whale.
 
They are Portland the same way that Brooklyn is New York. Manhattanites would object, but for the rest of the world...

That's actually one of the things that really amused me when we lived in Portland, a group of my wife's co-workers would lecture us that since we lived on the west side we were not real Portlanders and did not understand what urban living is because we were "suburbanites". We both enjoyed telling them we just moved from New York and they have no effin' clue what urban living really means. I mean, if you do not need another mortgage to afford parking a car, you do not live in a proper urban area...

"difference without a distinction" I believe is the correct term. Me and most of the world would consider them Portlanders.

Tualatin and West Linn don't count as Portland?

Please don't lump our nice clean, generally graffiti and homeless free 'burbs with the People's Republic of Portland. Very nice place to visit but I wouldn't wanna live there anymore.........
 
Well I don’t think I’ve seen a team lose to two guys in quite a lop sided fashion before… so there’s that. Hard to even feel bad when guys are breaking records playing the right way.
 
Great 3-point shooting by Payton and White last night. But their stats failed in comparison to our shooting star.
Seriously though, did anyone ever think Jabari Walker could go 6-6 from deep ? That was crazy
 
Pritchard and White combined for 19 three's made

how many times this season have the Blazers, as a team, made 19 three's in a game?

That would be an incredible thing to see. Had one in my back yard in Oregon City probably 10 or 15 years ago.

It was dark. Didn't know what it was until it screamed and jumped over an 8ft fence. Scared the hell out of me.

They have crazy screams when they’re in heat of whatever they call it for cougars

I consider it a turnover whenever Jabari lets a 3 fly, so I was extremely surprised six times over.
