I guess I just think Stotts is such a shitty coach.

If you eliminate the impossible (Stotts being a good coach) you’re left with the possible.

Trying to create a scenario that is completely outlandish to support an opinion.... Hmmmm. Lets see?
An owner spends Millions and Millions to have a good team but lets a GM keep a coach that is Shitty so he can maybe get a player he doesn't know will even be available?
Oh yeah.... I can see that all day every day of the week.


Wow i figured out something to say about it.

I guess you don’t understand the part about me thinking that Stotts isn’t a good coach. Go back and try to re-read that.

Unless Paul Allen, REALLY doesn’t like Stotts, he’s just gonna go with whatever his GM says. Because he’s paying him millions of dollars to do the job of GM.

So now you are saying the owner is willing to trust his GM to keep a bad coach so he can lure a better free agent.
You see how crazy this sounds? It's just outlandish on every level. Whether you think he is a bad coach or not. Allen has owned the Blazers long enough, and been to enough games that he knows what kind of coach he has.

You’re gonna have to try harder than that.

No he isn't.
Your conspiracy theory is just that.
Go post that shit on TMZ or something. Here is where the big boys discuss situations in realistic terms.

You will have to come up with more to get me to try harder. It was too easy from the beginning. Sorry. The theory isn't even credible let alone outlandish.

You’re not intelligent enough to share banter with.

Goodbye.
 
The owner delegates power to the GM.

He has flaws but every coach does. There are only a handful of coaches that are head and shoulders above him. Would I like to see him add a big name coach known for defense to be an assistant though? Yes.
 
Someone asked Stotts in the post game if he thought the Blazers were "sputtering" and he said no, because we're just "missing shots we normally make". Is he that clueless? Aminu and Harkless have been hitting 3s at a really decent clip, and except for the Clipper game, the bench has played pretty well. As far as missing, we're missing CRAP shots that shouldn't even be taken in the first place.

The defense also seems to be back to being as bad as it ever was.
 
I thought Portland2014 started that one as well. Next one will be to replace Moda Center as it's clearly not working.
 
Currently tied for 4th seed.

The Warriors were defeated by Detroit last night.

IMO Stotts is the best HC we've had since the 2000-2001 season when Dunleavy was coach.

Currently, the team ranks:
5th in PTS/G
7th in OPP PTS/G

2nd in Off Rtg
7th in Def Rtg

So far Dame is having a career low in shooting % and efficiency for a season. Our team will be steamrolling opponents once Dame is back on track and the players continue their improvement under Stotts.

We blew out most of our opponents and lost a couple of close games. I think the HC job is pretty secure unless Paul Allen wants a different coach.

4-2

On pace for 54 wins.

Denny, I love ya , man, but that is just about the funniest thing you have ever posted. Four and two against garbage teams, equates a 54 win season? hahahahaha

As an aside, I have been watching more ball than I usually do, and it appears that the league is again in transition. Getting bigger, faster and stronger. Lots of games seem to be more physical . The trend to rush down to small ball may soon be at an end.

Yeah I see the league going to tall ball, or long ball if you prefer; as in long lean athletes who play like small forwards and shoot threes like Steph Curry.
 
Now 4-3 with a really demoralizing loss.
Stotts lost that game last night. Leaving time outs on the board when he watched with all of us his team suffering through quite possibly the worst meltdown this decade.
I for one hope he is taking this loss seriously because it really speaks to the way he coached
He should have found a way to restore composure in the second half. A shake up is in order and we will see what he does with the return of Vonleh.

Didn't the NBA remove like 2-3 timeouts per team per game? Probably explains why coaches are reluctant to call timeouts now in the middle of the game this season.

They did take some timeouts away but when you are in a quarter like that, call time out, get a T, pull the fire alarm.....something.
