I remember last season... And even this season, homers saying "it's just one game", calm down. It's interesting, when I say that one game could be important later into the season, you guys saying it doesn't matter, it's just one game. And now, when we all know, we all know, bc it was obvious from the beging of this season, that this team can't play defence even if younger Camby was here along with Gary Payton and we not goin deep into playoffs without D, you saying Blazers want to stay in playoff run for decent spot to avoid crazy run? Are you even serious, man?
If we are going to play worst team in the league and Stotts message to youngs is "you stay home, you are useless" how does it exctly built the team for the future. Ask yourself what Pop would do.
The only opportunity for youngs to show under Stotts are injuries (and he works great with trying to injure Lillard) and games Stotts wants to lose - Denver - and even there he failed. In fact he has so little control of what's happening, he can not even lose the game when he wants to.
So, Lillard plays on one leg just to save Stotts and Olshey asses now. And they could be both on the hot seats, but injuries saved them, and saved them so good, they can drink champagne already, cos it's the beginning of the season and Olshey can write his afterseason speech already.
But, yeah, nothing happening, let's repeat the cycle that is internet meme already.
