fuckin no shit.

sorry, cant resist - need to vent on someone and it might as well be this shitstain (as per)

sorry not sorry to the 3 ML fans out there in the universe

I just found out this 7-1 asshole blocked me on twitter.

I'm not sure if I should laugh with relief, or feel insulted that someone so bad was offended by something I said.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Damn Meyers totally calling that idiot Cousins out in his interview from the locker room. Meyers is killing him with class.

What did you say to him?

 

[Jade Falcon]

What did you say to him?

Fuck if I know. But I just wrote his wife: "I mean this with the upmost respect: please teach your husband how to play basketball. He's killing us. Thank you."

Should go over equally well.....

Meyers is screwing up this whole plan! We be nice to Cousins so he comes here... Now we have to ship Meyers out..

Oh no, wait.. Meyers! Say more!

btw "I try to do the best I can for this team" ummm.... ouch.

at least he made his hair less distracting. Or at least it doesnt look as bad as before. So that helps.

Here's a better look at the mouthguard unfortunately falling out at Meyers:

The best part is you see the ref blatantly look at it twice and still didn't call it.

The worst part is crying about DeMarcus hurting his feelings in the post-game interview. Bad look.

 

[Five Second Violation]

Cousins talking all that shit to/about Leonard would be like Lillard talking shit to John Lucas III.

Or a 20 year old talking shit to a 9 year old in a pickup game after he dunks on him.

WOW!!! It's more blatant than how blatant it was. What a joke

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

41 techs in one season. Boogie ain't close to Sheed.

They let a lot more slide these days. Sheed woulda been ejected without any prior techs on that bullshit.

Sheed got tossed for literally looking at a ref, if he did what cousins did he'd be out of the league lmao

@PDXpain

I was wondering who the hell that was, lol.

 

[Scalma]

Boogie only hates Leonard. He gave props to Plumlee. Trade back on.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

I fell asleep. Did we seriously lose to the fucking kings?

 

[Cippy91]

I fell asleep. Did we seriously lose to the fucking kings?

I fell asleep too lol. It's sad, this is how disinterested we have become in this fucking team. Last season games were competitive and fun to watch. These days I really don't care

Ya ever since the warriors got durrant i pretty much quit giving a fuck about the nba. It's no longer competitive and the blazers not competing every night makes me wish i didnt waste $200 on league pass as it's the only reason i havent cancled my directv service yet.

The last time i was this disappointed in my team was when lamarsha mailed it in agains the grizz and turned his back on us. But at least then i had cj and meyers actually trying and giving me something to root for.

 

[Dougnsalem]

I wish I had the powers to change places with someone. I would have filled in for Stotts. The second that technical got reversed, I would have told the whole team to just go to the locker room. Right then and there. Take the loss, and make a statement.... I would have gladly paid any NBA fines, for the whole team. It seems to be a trend this season- I find myself saying over and over that I have never seen a call so bad.... Reverse a technical so the player can keep playing??? Call a shot clock violation before the buzzer even goes off??? Yeah, the team didn't play great D again, however, they could have easily won it, if it weren't for the HORRIBLE calls by the refs. These dudes(and that one chick) need to be fired. Period. They have made it so it's not fun to watch the games. Even other games that don't involve the Blazers. Professionals? Not even close.... Why do I keep have the feeling like these refs are making bets on the games, or they are getting paid off by someone? Am I the only one that feels this way??? Serious question...

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Advantages of living in the Eastern Time Zone - I went to bed at half time, happy in the knowledge that there was no way we could blow THIS one...

So.

How DID we blow this one?

Because Blazers.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Think of it this way: losing on the road is the utilitarian thing to do. You make a lot of people (in this case, members of a sad, embittered, desperate fanbase, who paid a lot of money to see a crappy team) very happy. Blazers spreading seasonal cheer!

Yes, the refs make maddening calls far too often, and it always seems to be against the Blazers. There's never any justice for it, because the NBA could care less about Portland. Sometimes I wish Stotts would throw a chair onto the court, or someone would just dump the fucking gatorade cooler all over a ref.

 

[Sinobas]

And they called that technical on Plumlee, for what to me, looked like an obvious accident, when he hit Cousins in the face. Then you have Cousins on the other end staring down a rival, spitting his mouth piece, and the t is recinded? That is the game right there. (not to mention the shit that Draymond Green does that they don't call, but then make a RULE about it the following year)

And why would the refs defend Cousins? He gets on their ass all the time, and the Blazers are almost too nice to the refs.

Those two calls right there swayed the outcome of the game. NBA refs determine games way too often.

 

[craigehlo]

People complaining about the refs, the Blazer did almost nothing in the 4th to force the zebras to blow the whistle. They got lazy and jacked up 3's like undisciplined teams tend to do.

We allowed them to shoot 44% on threes, Cousins 5 for 8, all except one wide open. Apparently Leonard and Plumlee cannot stand out there and guard him because they constantly need to hedge back to stop the quick guys darting past Lillard and McCollum. And when Cousins drives from out there, I thought our bigs channeled him enough and slowed him enough that someone with enough courage could have stepped in front of him and drawn a charge. Didn't happen; everyone stayed with their guys even though i don't think Cousins has a great reputation for passing on the run.

We should stop hedging and let our guards get burned constantly. Maybe it'll wake them the fuck up to play some D.
