Lakers look just as shitty as this Blazer squad.

The tank rolls on.

Roco does everything pretty well except his shooting. Very inconsistent this year.

IDK. He takes some questionable shots and falls asleep at the wheel with the ball in his hands in other ways, too. He's uncanny on defense, though, with his ability to strip the ball.
 
The end of that game seemed tanky. Which I don’t mind.
 
Joke's on you, Lakers. We're trying to lose. You aren't but it doesn't look any different.

Again, same thing as with CJ's shot with a chance to get it to a one-possession game. The Lakers weren't sending blind double-teams at him. They were coming right from his line of sight and he refused to make the proper pass.
 
Jodi just said "that check will clear. Go ahead coach."
 
RoCo REALLY looks like he knows he is about to be traded....even though he may end up with a career high in assists.

Looking like another “Stealth” tank game.

With all the missed layups and the fourth-quarter laziness, there wasn't any stealth to this. This looked like a game the Blazers didn't care to win, which is weird because there probably are about four guys in this roster that are going to be around next season.
 
Billups post game OKC interview made it seem like he’s accepted the tank. Saying “I’m fine” with how they played.
 
CJ’s not doing anything lately to up any kind of trade value. I was thinking some team might want him for a playoff run. Even though I know his contract isn’t something teams want to absorb.
 
cj's FT% is shockingly bad for how good of a shooter he is.

killing his true shooting numbers
 
Norm hit 2 straight three’s then CJ and Ant took over lol

That might be intentional....if you don't want to get traded....would you want to beast?

I mean, with CJ's body of work, teams know what they are and aren't getting if they acquire him. So a cold stretch around a trade deadline where your name is being talked about all over the place not only doesn't effect CJ's trade value, it's to be expected. CJ has seemed disconnected this season (see his ft%). I don't think he had the same conversation with Cronin that Nurk did.
 
the Blazer big 3 of CJ-Ant-Nurk combines for 50 points on 50 shots....coincidence?

Since CJ came back, and then Nas went down.....mostly yuck. Effort is less, Iso is more. Ping pong balls back on the rise.

CJ isn't stupid....he knows his biggest supporter, by far, got fired 2 months ago. He's been around long enough to hear the chatter about how bad a fit he is with Dame and how often his name is mentioned as not only a logical trade but a needed one
 
Blazers Uprise Postgame Show
Lakers 99, Blazers 94
It seemed like neither team was interested in winning this game but the Lakers do just enough down the stretch to secure a victory. Come talk about the game with us!
