1) We've lost 8 of last 11

2) What is wrong with Simons? Still battling an illness??

Damn.....This looks bleak. A 22-6 team with a stellar 11-3 road record is going to explode on us. best_animated_gif_nuclear_explosion.gif
 
What's crazy is if the Blazers were 7-7 on the road instead of 5-9, they'd still be on pace for 50 wins. I know that is because of the 10-3 start but that's what is so frustrating about this team. A decent team is in there somewhere.

Unfortunately this is also a reason why people keep their jobs. They're doing just enough for people to not completely give up on them.
 
Another reason why I think the larger problem lies in Stott's and not Olshey. What good is a weapon if it isnt used properly?

turnovers? Baldwin is averaging 5.6 per36 and in the few stretches he's played, even his defense was bad
 
Without drilling into the raptors defense I’d like to see the blazers attack the paint and then kick it out if need be. CJ was causing damage in the paint last game but then did not kick it out effectively when they pressed him him a double team. He needs to trust the rest of the team will knock down the shot when they are open. That does not seem realistic because they are all running a wheel route around the court while the slow offense decides to finally start a play. But when they do why is Nurk running point most of the time at the top of the arc? I mean ok I like the fact that he can pass but if you run your offense thru a center he really needs to be top 2 or 3 in the league. Why not use the speed and quickness if you are going to put that small Lillard, CJ, Harkless lineup out there.

I'm not saying he needs to play every game, but he became the Harden stopper last year and never got the chance to see if he can keep it up this year.

If we don't have players that can play regularly, then we must choose the best weapon for the moment. Against Houston, he was our best weapon based on previous history against Harden.

Instead of starting Harkless or Layman based on matchups, he bases it off of injuries and salary.
 
I hope our new owner Jody Allen doesn't pop in here to see what all the fuss is about.

This place has been depressing lately.

A win over the Raps would help bring back some sort of sanity....or just be enough to let NO think he's right.
 
C’mon Raptors coach, you already blow out the Clippers and Warriors might as well rest Lowry and Kawahi for tonight. Throws some free bones for the Blazers please.
