This a teaching moment. We're learning something important tonight.



(We suck.)
 
I know it's pre-season, but goddamn they aren't even trying out there. New coach, New offense, New defense (if that's what they call it).... and they don't look like they give a shit. Troubling, to say the least.
 
Billups 0-3 as Blazers head coach
 
Everyone will say it’s only pre-season.

After the first week everyone will say - it’s early

After second week - give Chauncey a chance, a lot of games to play.
 
We thought the Sacramento game was bad, but apparently we're better when most of our starters aren't playing.

I don't think that's fair. They look like they're trying, they're just not good at it. Any of it.
 
we are looking really bad.. could we have downgraded from stotts? what a horrifying thought.

It feels like every player is fighting against their natural instincts.

Right. The question is; can Billups keep them believing in his changes long enough to produce some good results?
 
The Blazers get blown out by the Suns to fall to 0-3 in the preseason. The Blazers Uprise Live Postgame Show will discuss if there should be panic in the streets. Come give your opinion on the way preseason has gone.
 
I thought it was bad that they moved tip from 7pm to 2pm on a worknight days AFTER I bought a ticket. Ouch.

As long as he can keep them close to the eighth seed and keep improving every week until the playoffs , I'm OK.

Some people realized Stotts wasn't ever the main problem and was a top 10-15 coach in the league. Billups is coming in with little experience and is going to have to learn on the fly with a roster that has always had some serious issues. Billups can be a good coach, but he isn't going to solve our core problems.
 
Did Chauncey have out his clip board out at all?
I know he's trying to keep it simple.

People should've been concerned before the pre-season started. This has always been a roster creation issue and we basically rolled back the same core that got bounced by Denver last year.

Don't worry - we're not going to get bounced from the playoffs this year
