Notice the difference in hustle between Little and the rest of the goddamn team? Thats what this is about.

Whatever! You showed your colors.

 

[HailBlazers]

Eh. I think I mentioned injuries. But the defense is down the list on our problems, IMO. Whiteside isn't much of a dropoff if any from Nurk on defense.

Really? 22-50 points in the paint.

 

[Strenuus]

Well the positive is Simons is still getting better and now we know that Little can play with the big boys.

Correction: stotts doesnt know yet.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I can’t wait for that in-depth behind the scenes story by Quick that surely has to be coming soon. I can understand injuries doing us in but it can’t be this bad. I’m legit curious what the hell is happening behind the scenes.. this is weird

Stop.

 

[Chris Craig]

CJ and Dame can never both be on. It's against the laws of physics

 

[B-Roy]

Stotts should be fired for sitting little when he held siakim. What a joke of a coach.

I went back to the play by play and counted the plays.

Nassir little came out at 2:46 in the third. It was 74-75 at that point. Siakam at that point was 6/18 for 14 points.

SINCE NAS CAME OUT: SIAKAM WENT 9/10 (Did not miss a shot until close to a min left in the 4th when the game was already over). HE ENDED THE GAME 15/28 for 36 POINTS.

MY BLOOD IS ACTUALLY BOILING RIGHT NOW. I literally cannot breathe. I cannot believe we just extended this fraud of a coach and his buddy CJ. This may be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

 

[Darkwebs]

I'm sad..

 

[OneSport3]

How many seasons has it been that Stotts hasn’t been able to counter the aggressive blitz of Dame??? The Warriors did it and the Raptors did it tonight. Yet the same old shit.

Thats just so stupid. Only bad coaches do this.

 

[The Professional Fan]

We come back from this road trip a different team. I believe in our culture, I see the talent, and I believe in Lillard’s leadership. This road trip sets us right.

Something must be going on behind the scenes

Nope its just Terry scotts sucks ass as a coach. He is Jason Garrett of cowboys pathetic, how on earth did you get destroyed by a G league team warriors without a single starter. He can not motivate his players and his system is iso ball Dame save me, it has no movement its predictable we are a jumpshooting team with terrible shooters and no defenders. I don’t know many coaches who are 8 years still with 1 team and never won champion chip, he is always outcoached at end where we blow 20+ pts lead, how many more years with this clown?! Is Dame prime gonna be wasted with scotts? The most pathetic coach in whole NBA i hate that clown

we’re 4 games under .500

calm down

 

[DDolla]

The hard part for me on losing all these games is I don’t get to see any Brooke post game interviews. Damn, I missed Brooke

Something must be going on behind the scenes

It might just be as simple as having too many guys who don't really have that "killer" mentality. I think Baze has it. He's definitely tough-minded. Herzonja doesn't. I think maybe Whiteside lacks it. Probably the thing that holds Skal back, tbh. Ant and Nas are too young yet.

Aminu and Mo might have been limited, but I think they were tough players. Curry was small, but he was a tough player. They came to compete and knew their roles and got good in those roles. They'd get loose balls. They'd buckle down on key possessions and in crunch time. Even when we struggled, they never seemed to hang their heads or look defeated.

These guys ... ugh. They're likable. Maybe they are too likable.

 

[TBpup]

Little...mass hustle all night long and the most of any Blazer by far.
Simons....the most efficient Blazers guard on the floor.

Neither one in while the Blazers were getting crushed. #Coaching

We made the Western Conference Finals a few months ago

Is that related to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? Maybe we need to trade for Schrödinger’s cat? Might fix our defense.

 

[kjironman1]

Thats just so stupid. Only bad coaches do this.

You know I cannot for the life of me figure out why he didn’t play him in the fourth? I honestly thought he was just resting him. I even commented that he would put him in. Clown move for sure by Stotts.

 

[Strenuus]

calm down

Its not about the game. Its about managing a player to help the team succeed. He didnt do that.


Look deeper. Dont be so myopic.

Fun fact: the leading cause of aneurysm in the city of Portland is Terry Stotts.

Not this season

Maybe there's a reason why we're 4-8 with an MVP candidate. Think about that for half a second and process it.

Huh? What's your point what's your point with that? I don't comprehend your level of snark, so please translate.

Hope so.

you must be looking very deep to have such great hindsight

Not this season

I know. But it’s not like Stotts is any different now than he was a few months ago

 

[Strenuus]

Because of dame and CJ. Not because of stotts. Hes a fraud of a coach. Its not even opinion anymore. Its fact

You got to admit not putting Little back in was a head scratcher.

No, but the team is
