You REALLY feel this way? I thought we had the worst coach and defense in the entire league. I guess the fact we are missing half our team can’t be used as an excuse according to some here.... but with all that, you think WE should roll THEM? How!!??

They're missing their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th best players, and were the worse team to begin with. So the injuries are not an excuse. If we come out and move the ball, take good shots, and execute defensively, we'll win. If we lose, at least one of those things will be a reason why.

Also, instead of saying "I thought we had the worst coach!?!?!", why dont you speak for yourself and share your thoughts instead?

Disgusting.
 
Just look at the list of injuries for both teams. This will probably be one of the most entertaining games this year.
I have no idea what to expect. Even more so if Lillard is out.
Too bad we won't get to see Aminu play a bit.

Take the 2nd, 3rd and 4th best player off of ANY team in ANY sport and it will have a negative impact on the team at ANY level. Plain and simple.

Of course. Nobody is arguing that.
 
There is no reason Dame should play more than 30 minutes. Blazers should smash this magic team so Dame can rest
 
i have no idea why people expect easy games in general

any team, no matter how bad, can have a good shooting night or any team, no matter how good, can have a bad shooting night

heres hope we win this game, we need to win as much as we can to stay around 6th seed, then when we get cj and nurk back, it should be easier

No we are being told over and over that injuries are not an excuse for us not being as competitive.

I must be living in the twilight zone if you're having to even state that at this point.

It's not that we're losing short-handed, it's how we're losing. Is that the new spin?

you and HCP are making more posts arguing against the "injury excuse" than there are posts making that argument. Not coincidentally, you guys are also the biggest defenders of Stotts around here. You're echoing each other like deranged cockatoos. I know you believe you're 'right', but for chrissakes, do you have to be right, over and over and over, in every thread?

I have never posted about coaching in a game thread where blaming a guy in the suit hasn't happened. Just trying to keep it balanced, but I know it's still not close!

I'm not a Stotts defender. I've said he needs to go if it is good for the team. The only thing I'm defending is that there are more than one factor in us playing like shit and can't be blamed on just Stotts. Said that multiple times sir.

It' my job to be Stott's defender son....stay in your lane! There are 3 coaches I would take over Terry but that's all pipe dreamin'...they won't move.
 
So ready for this.

Just got an amazing massage. Feeling great. Ready for the Blazers to beat some ass.

I've said this SO MANY times as well. But if I don't buy into Stotts being the reason for our every loss, that makes me one of his biggest defenders. Low bar I guess.

If Dame's at all still experiencing stiffness with his abdominal strain, he should sit out this game. Good game for Dame to get rested and healthy.

This is our best chance to win a game in a while... need to take advantage!

Rest Dame against Philly or Dallas.
