Notice Blazers announce Jusuf Nurkic suffered a non-displacement fibular fracture in his right leg.

[Dougnsalem]

I have gotten used to the idea that for the Blazers...shit happens.....I accept whatever chapter they are going through. I do feel the future is really bright with Nurk in the fold though...for now...let's see who the keepers are on the roster before the offseason....guys step up or go away now

I totally agree. We know what we've got with Jusuf. (and I'm SO looking forward to next year!) He needs to be sitting right behind Vonleh, each and every game. Pumping him up to attack everything....

Nurkic is injury-prone. But to get a fuller picture, his Injury List record

needs to be compared with his game log. Not just one or the other.

Could you summarise your feelings on that? Seriously. If you've already found a corelation between the two, I'd love to hear it.

Where are you?

I think Butters is Depression, Cliff Alexander is Acceptance.

Based on my posts what stage am I at right now?

We'll make the playoffs. Denver has already given up.

Maybe Paul Allen told him he wants him why do people always blame the GM

Yep, we know Paul Allen told NO to match any Allen Crabbe offer. Wouldn't surprise me if Paul said the same about the other restricted guys last offseason.

 

[Strenuus]

LOL how is this TNTs issue? Mad because they reported a story?

It's a joke. Have you not picked that up yet?

If you separate the ILs from the DNPs from the pouts, you get 3 lists to analyze. I don't have the energy to do it, but a young red-blooded caneless stud such as yourself could make mincemeat out of that project.

You are doing MUCH better than last night! Things will work out for the good....

(I hope....)

We do? Allen hires a GM to do a job, then monitors him with e-mails to make sure he's trying his hardest. But the GM does his own job his own way.

You're way off on the young part. Lol. I really like your theory, but my energy level is pretty low right now. How about we compromise, and have @Boob-No-More do it?

 

[LuckyShot]

I can't go through all these posts. Any somewhat medical experts in here know if he'll have any realistic chance to play in a couple of weeks?

Then you should remember the contests on the backs of cereal boxes which required a response of "25 words or less." With all that experience in writing in brevity, you would not have recommended Boob. Therefore, you contradicted yourself, and I smell a 21-year-old pretending to be old.

Yeah we do know--there were some tweets shortly after matching Crabbe that Paul Allen told NO to resign Crabbe no matter the cost.

Nurkic has the same problem Joel had early on in his career: he's too heavy. Have him drop 20-30 lbs, and he'll get more resilient.

 

[Chris Craig]

Ill take the blame. I got a joel przybilla jersey long ago. A week later he slipped jn the shower and re injured his knee. I bought a matthews jersey. A week later he tore his achillies. I bought a lamucus jersey, and he bolted to san anotonio. Guess what i ordered yesterday? Unfortunately, not a meyers leonard jersey. Yeah that was mean. Fuck it. Im in a bad mood now.

Stop ordering Blazer Jerseys dammit!!!!

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Stop ordering Blazer Jerseys dammit!!!!

Order a custom Steph Curry Blazers jersey!!!!

Lol. Why was I not surprised with this response? And to answer your question in another thread.... No, I'm not upset about Pluto no longer being a planet. We have planet X that will make up for it....

 

[TBpup]

So in other words nothing has changed in the last two days. I mean we were never going to really compete with the Warriors and we were not going to get a lottery pick.

So unless Nurk's injury is career threatening, I am not sure how we are all of a sudden in basketball purgatory. Did we lose our 3 first round picks too?

I suppose 'compete' is subjective. With Nurkic, the Blazers were at least playing better and would have been much more competitive and got something out of the Playoff series....especially for Nurkic who has never been. Maybe they only win a game or two but that is quite different from playing the way they were before Nurkic when I think they get swept and aren't competitive unless the Warriors get bored.

There is a lot more to be gleaned from one of those processes than the other even though the final outcome would be similar.

 

[Chris Craig]

Does anyone else kind of feel like being a Blazer fan sometimes feels like you're having a nightmare or watching a really bad movie?

I swear, just when I started to get excited about the teams chances to possibly get HCA in the playoffs next year this shit happens.

Someone better pass them in the hunt for the 8th seed.

Nightmare on Center Street

TNT is a joke

Time for Noah to show what he has learned from the beast....

Now I watched TNT long time ago...

Tweets from Paul Allen, or from rumor masters who speculate for a living?

For example, if Olshey dangled Crabbe, and told other GMs that the boss was making him pay Crabbe a lot, so they better offer Olshey a lot,...well, games like that are played all the time when you negotiate anything. The boss says, blame me and see what you can get. (I've done it both as subordinate and boss.) Then Woj hears of the ploy and reports it as fact. Then you say it's proven because Woj said so.
