Fucking Steve Nash..... I can't wait until he retires. I couldn't wait until Stockton retires, and I feel the same way about Nash.

 

[Natebishop3]

What the fuck was that???? Grant Hill yanks Aldridge to the ground? How was that not a technical or a flagrant? It was after the play!

 

[Natebishop3]

Game.

 

[Natebishop3]

Oh well..... that's just how this season is going.

 

[B-Roy]

Vince Carter LOL.

 

[jlprk]

This is the same ending we've seen for 3 years. Now Roy will win the game on a miracle drive. Just watch.

 

[Natebishop3]

That was a fucking travel....

 

[julius]

I wonder if the Blazers will ever catch a break. No pun intended.

 

[tlongII]

Geez we suck.

 

[julius]

It's games like this (along with the other 39 games they've played this year) that proves the team needs something.

But the team has to wait for they're 20 games into the season so they can accurately evaluate the players, before they make any trades.

 

[B-Roy]

We deserved to lose this game. I'd like to see a trade just to see how Nate reacts.

 

[Nate Dogg]

Mike and Mike mentioned that the Blazers have a 2-10 record if they give up over a 100 points to their opponent.
Now they will be 2-11.

Roy wins the game!! McMillan's strategy worked again. Pritchard's genius for stocking up on young players has made us the deepest team in the league. Just give these young guys a little more time, because we have a golden future.

 

[Natebishop3]

Worst guy to foul. GG

What if we trade Nate?

 

[B-Roy]

Gotta go for three now.

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

These refs are cowards.

 

[B-Roy]

What if we trade Nate?

We know that won't happen.

 

[julius]

You guys hear that the metro area is supposed to get almost 2.5 inches of rain the next few days? Including up to 6 inches in some areas of the coast?

This just proves that you're a robot who was programmed in the year 2008.

 

[Natebishop3]

I know, but I can hope.... Seriously though, how much longer is he going to get a free pass because of injuries? With our torrid pace of injuries, we could be stuck with McMillan for another decade.

 

[jlprk]

And to think we're doing all this without Koponen, Claver, Freeland, Minnie, Mickey, Rudolf...I can't even remember all the talent Pritchard has stockpiled. Our future is golden.

And now I read that Patty Mills gained 15 pounds of solid muscle over the summer. How lucky can a team be?

 

[B-Roy]

Hopefully he leaves us instead.

 

[MadeFromDust]

YAY! We lose again. Time to lose again tmrw night against NJ.

 

[julius]

I wonder what it will take for the team to grow some balls and make a trade.

Just guessing, but probably a trade offer worth doing.

 

[illmatic99]

We desperately need a closer. This was another game that would not have lost two years ago.

I can't believe we have 20 losses already, before the halfway point of the season.

 

[illmatic99]

I'm surprised no one else has commented on Nate's comment about "NOT BEING CREATIVE!"

 

[KingSpeed]

Makes you miss Roy ISOs at the end of the game, doesn't it? Or do you prefer the more exciting brand of basketball, aka losing?

 

[julius]

Just guessing, but probably a trade offer worth doing.

I would bet they've had trade offers that were worth doing, but still didn't do it.
