I need a half

I want half of what you drink. That will probably be a healthier dose than what I want right now.

 

[Chris Craig]

Fuck it bench Nurk and start Collins and Biggie in the frontcourt

 

[riverman]

To all my friends after this night of jaded basketball!

 

[GrandJury]

Another home loss.. what is that 7 straight losses at home? Lmao

Dilly Dilly!

 

[TBpup]

Did anyone notice if Allen made an effort to show up tonight?

Not sure why he would with this mess. For a fan, a family of 4 paying $50 a ticket have spent $1200 since last seeing a Blazer win at home. That is before parking and $9 beers.

Because he's responsible for this shit. Ultimately, all of this falls into his lap. He owns the team, he hires the GM, and he signs the paychecks. This IS his problem, and I want him to see it.

 

[TBpup]

The only player on the Blazers roster that CJ out-shot tonight....Aminu.

 

[BBert]

Aminu was a -36 tonight.....damn!

And he was back to his dribbling out of control self. God I hate it when he thinks he can drive or take the ball up the court. Then his suckage bled into his shooting. Bad show all around.

Shit. Now you've really depressed me.

he's smart...doesn't want to get traded ...after the deadline he'll beast again!

 

[BBert]

In other news. Lol

Because, as we all know, players never make mistakes?

 

[Chris Craig]

Dilly Dilly!

 

[Gronk Brady]

I think I would look to move Nurk... I had the fever last year but this guy is just soft... he doesn’t deserve to be called a beast. Just lazy, doesn’t try to dunk... everything is just thrown wildly towards the rim hoping it goes in. I would trade him for 2 years of Marc Gasol if possible then Collins should be ready. So thankful we didn’t give Nurk a big contract

 

[AFully22]

To make it all worse, the Lackers look their young pieces have started to figure it out.

 

[rotary111]

Bring on the playoffs!! I think we're ready.

Getting Kuzma late in the 1st round was HUGE for them.

We should have got that guy

 

[ripcityboy]

One thinfg I've learned from watching this team. You build your team with about three to five years of high lottery picks.... Not three to five years of high lottery picks nobody else wanted.

New Blazers flag....and it sums it up nicely:

Pit Of Misery indeed.

 

[julius]

The only positive from the game (and this stretch of the season) was Collins performance.

Tho there were some obvious "you're a rook" fouls called on him.

You can tell the team has given up or something. Doesn't help their SF and PF positions fucking suck.

 

[AFully22]

Getting Kuzma late in the 1st round was HUGE for them.

I was just about to say... to make it all worse Kuzma is the fucking truth yet we decided to draft our second PF in the same draft instead of our position of most need.

Completely on Olshey.

Hahaha. Private tour!

 

[Scalma]

We have 26 power forwards but still starting Aminu.

Genius.

I would love to trade Nurk so bad.. he’s starting to be my least favorite player on the team.

He’s stupid as fuck on the court. A turnover machine. Bitches 24/7 to the refs, flops, please get rid of this guy

 

[rotary111]

I would love to go back to Collins and Vonleh at the 4. Vonleh makes a difference in the flow somehow. Plus he rebounds and is an excellent defender.

 

[ripcityboy]

Nurk had 1 fucking rebound.... One!

How the hell does a center have one rebound?

Denver didn’t miss shots

 

[ripcityboy]

Denver didn’t miss shots

In 24 minutes he didn't get one 50/50 ball he could have outmuscled somebody for another rebound?
