Are people just looking at boxscore stats or something? Watch Whiteside's body language. He didn't even box out Trey Lyles on a FT rebound.

No,

It's been going on since the opening tip. When you are wide open time after time or have a huge mismatch after a switch, you body language can deteriorate because you are going all you can to help your team but your teammates aren't making smart decisions. That is not to excuse it...but it can explain some of it.

And it's part of why the Blazers have given up the lead. 7 minutes into the 3rd quarter and I've seen one posession with more than 1 pass. Just a whole lot of 1-on-1.
 
This feels like a loss. They can’t shoot and there’s no energy.
 
I'd throw someone like Trent in and see if he can get to the rim. Anything but what we're watching.

It's about doing things that can help the team win even if things aren't going you're way. If you can't see that Whiteside becomes unengaged when he's not involved I don't really know what to say. You don't want to play with guys like that and players don't like playing with players like that.

Stotts isnt fucking coaching. We have taken like 10 jumpers in a row. And no sets to free up a chance inside. Its sad.

No shit. They’re obviously not running any semblance of offense. Just jacking up shots yet Stotts doesn’t call one timeout to set up some real offense...
 
I’m starting to hate Stotts. His rotations have always been shit, still are shit. Hey Fuck wad put in Skal, he’s fresh.
 
When you're on the 2nd of a back-to-back, ball movement is even MORE imortant. Make the defense move to create a shot instead of trying to create one with tired legs.
 
Tired legs now, back to back games is no joke.

his reputation precedes him on this aspect
 
Terry, the only way your offense can get to the fucking rim is for Dame to go 1 on 3?
 
Id love to have a set that would get us going towards the damn rim!!!

Only way we get there is driving 1 on 1, 1 on 2, or 1 on 3.
