We haven't been blown out by every good team. We won in Memphis.

We could be 20-50 and you'd probably still say "We beat Memphis in Memphis, we don't lose every single game to a good team, therefore we'll still make the playoffs" lol.

 

[BrunoSOC]

no excusses... We are paid a lof for this guys! We are terrible, i am embarracing

 

[KingSpeed]

I like our third string by the way

 

[BonesJones]

I am halfway on board the trade C.J. bandwagon.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dammit, I was so close to getting this right in the prediction thread.

 

[BonesJones]

Sunday we need to start with:

Lillard
Crabbe
Layman
Davis
Meyers

 

[riverman]

Not a good loss...Pelicans kicked our butts tonight...get the next one!

Here's the problem. YOU are acting like we ARE 20-50. We aren't. We're 7-7. We have an injured starter. We've played maybe the toughest schedule in the league. And we're slumping. But you bet, I'll back my team in good times and bad. I believe in Dame. Don't you?

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

So many positives. Harkless' shooting is for real. The rebounding was better. They fought. We are gong to be fine guys.

This team was supposed to be a top 4 team in the Western Conference. YOU had them as the BEST TEAM IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE. A team that is that good should NEVER have to fight to win against a team that is 2-10.

PERIOD.

 

[KingSpeed]

Plum had a near triple double tonight. This was a turning point game for us. I remember in 2007, when Blake threw the chair. The next game, we got blown out by the Spurs (we were 5-12) but the effort was there. After that game, we won 13 straight games. I see that coming up for our team. I'm proud of how they fought on the glass tonight.

Go Blazers

PERIOD.

We're only a game behind the 4 seed right now. Calm down. It's not where you start, it's where you finish.

How many of those wins came against winning teams? I only see Utah and Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors where injured in that win. So don't let the 7 wins fool you. Marshmallow schedule.

Why don't you include rebounds? Only focusing on negative?

Memphis

 

[BrunoSOC]

I very worry we can Back come 7-10...

 

[KingSpeed]

So are we supposed to beat all the bad teams AND beat all the good teams? So you were expecting 82-0? Doesn't work that way.

 

[riverman]

Hey fanadariusnesses....it's ok to be optimistic and move on...we suck when we suck and we've sucked too much too often recently....it can only improve from here

 

[BrunoSOC]

Memphis

Theres the only Argument Mr positive guy have. We suck dude

 

[KingSpeed]

I very worry we can Back come 7-10...

Won't happen.

 

[KingSpeed]

You guys can't complain abut rebounding when we win and then ignore rebounding when we lose. Give the guys credit. They fought on the glass tonight.

Dude we've been blown out every week and now got blown out for the 3rd game in a row

 

[KingSpeed]

I am halfway on board the trade C.J. bandwagon.

CJ may be better than Dame (no offense to Dame) so that would be stupid.

 

[Darkwebs]

The day is darkest before the dawn. Or something like that.

 

[KingSpeed]

Dude we've been blown out every week and now got blown out for the 3rd game in a row

Dame will get these guys back on track. I believe in him.
