[Shaboid]

Is anyone else cutting off the sleeves of one of their hoodies right now?

 

[TBpup]

You can't be serious with this shit...

Dumbest shit of the year! Congrats!

you have to be trolling because this is completely fucked up

Couldn't agree more. At this point, this type of nonsense is just a mad plea for attention. Never mind that Dame is averaging a CAREER high in assists. Don't respond and feed the 'read my nonsense and give me attention' ploy. Just use the 'Ignore' button for what is for.

 

[Labinot41]

Who would have thought that the whole NBA is watching Blazers at Pelicans in mid November? Lmao nba Twitter is full of Melo

 

[DDolla]

Hoodie Melo is Back!

 

[THE HCP]

Ingram playing FAMS

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

I just heard the awful news about Dame being out for tonight's game. I also heard the even worse news about Carmello starting. That means CJ and Melo(and Simons) will handle basketball distribution duties.

Whose ready for the Two Man Power Trip tonight?

 

[TBpup]

If Melo' is starting, it make me wonder who his agent is and what favor that agent will be doing for the Blazers later on.....say around February.

 

[riverman]

Let's start the Melo era off with a W! Go Good Guys!

 

[B-Roy]

It's surreal seeing Melo in Blazers gear. End of the day, this is still a 10x all-star and one of the best scorers ever.

 

[Blazers1977]

Theres so much wrong with this, i dont have 15 hours to pick it apart.

This is STOTTS fault. No one else. There is no argument otherwise. Nice try, though. Sorry you wasted your time though.

funny how 5 of you felt the need to say “UR DUMB” but not one of you could form an actual argument.

everything is Stotts and CJ’s fault. None of the blame goes to the leader of our team. Got it.

 

[riverman]

Melo makes that pinwheel look good! I have a good feeling about this guy comin' to ball out

 

[DDolla]

Still the walking Buckets

yea, ignore everyone who disagrees with you. That’ll prove you aren’t in a cult.

assists aren’t necessarily synonymous with facilitating.

 

[tester551]

there's a definite vibe of desperation with the Blazers right now

Agreed. I still think this Melo thing is going to end poorly.

Stotts has always required a player to have a player go through at least 1 practice before playing in a game when being traded or coming back from injury. I don't see how this is any different.

 

[DDolla]

My predictions, 4-2 road record and Melo average 15+ points a game. Standing ovation when he returns to Moda.

 

[tester551]

He didn't say anything about ignoring people who disagree with him.... just ignoring the people who are so far off the edge of reality that it's not worth the time/effort in advancing a discussion.

 

[THE HCP]

ANT STARTING FAMS!!

 

[Blazers1977]

He didn't say anything about ignoring people who disagree with him.... just ignoring the people who are so far off the edge of reality that it's not worth the time/effort in advancing a discussion.

reality: the blazers are underachieving hard and Lillard is the leader of the blazers.

reality: Many players in our offense are not comfortable and it’s the PG’s responsibility to help players be comfortable.

reality: you can’t argue for 2 seconds bc you have no decent arguments

the fact that you’re trying to act like “our PG isn’t facilitating enough during our 4-9 start” is some delusional argument is just sad. Youre gaslighting bc you can’t argue worth a shit.

 

[TBpup]

Exactly this. So simple....yet completely lost on some.

 

[Blazers1977]

Sorry for triggering you with my opinion. Let me know if you can come up with a single argument, so far all 7 of you have failed to dispute a single point I made and have resorted to insults and/or dismissal.

I think I’m winning the argument.

Sucks that some people are smart enough to not engage with room temperature IQs huh?

 

[Driew]

ANT STARTING FAMS!!

Going to be a big test going against Holiday--I'm expecting some ugly turnovers but it'll be a good learning experience for him.

 

[Blazers1977]

That must be it. Couldn’t be that you’re just toxic.

 

[Scalma]

That must be it. Couldn’t be that you’re just toxic.

*below room temperature.

 

[Boise Blazer]

I'm glad to have something to be excited about again. No matter how it turns out I'm excited to be excited again. And I equally excited that Ant is starting.

 

[Strenuus]

That must be it. Couldn’t be that you’re just toxic.

It was because you were wrong. Thats the only valid counter point.

You tried and you failed. You'll get em next time.

 

[BonesJones]

Is anyone else cutting off the sleeves of one of their hoodies right now?

Blazers Uprise is actually putting out a short-sleeve Melo-inspired hoodie soon, titled: "Keep Portland Melo".

 

[BonesJones]

This is kinda surreal...

This will be interesting!

 

[wizenheimer]

Nah, that was the last 10 games when we knew who was being thrown out there to play. This is called excitement.

mainly I was thinking about Stotts saying that a guy who hasn't played for over a year would be the starter in his 1st game with the team. That's desparation

 

[Blazers1977]

It was because you were wrong. Thats the only valid counter point.

You tried and you failed. You'll get em next time.

Failing would be 7 of you failing to form a single counter argument and resorting to classless insults instead.
