You can see why Elleby averaged almost 8 rebounds a game in college.

 

[Darkwebs]

Powell is fierce and plain unstoppable tonight. Really nice to see. Give him the interview with BO.

Lol. I don’t think Brooke would be a fan of that nickname

 

[DDolla]

Back to two game losing streak against the Nets and Celtics

 

[Scalma]

RHJ gets put in the rotation and they have their best win maybe all year coincidence I think not dog

 

[OneSport3]

Did Stotts get smarter the past two days?

No

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Imagine giving Nas confidence by establishing a role for him.

He tried that with Noah Vonleh when he started him and benched him pretty much the rest of the game. What makes you think that'll work here?

I remember Vonleh looking good starting next to Nurk while Aminu was injured then as soon as he came back Vonleh was taken completely out of the rotation. Beautiful coaching/development.

Let this be a lesson to Blazers opponents: it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to talk trash and let the Blazers make a fool of you.

How much would we need to pay him to fire up the team before every game?

 

[hoopsjock]

The Blazers dominate the Grizzlies in Memphis tonight with a great all-around team win. Is there still hope for them? Talk about it with Torey and Eric on the Blazers Uprise Post Game Show!

thanks Dillon!

Another win!

Of course only 9 pages of comments.

This winning sure is gonna hurt the team.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Is somebody gonna come on here and say why is the thread count so low when we win? The funny thing is that it seems like it's all of us cynics who are here. Where are the homers?

How ironic that I posted that at the same time as Kjironman was posting!

Mods, can we make this guy the official thread page counter of the forum? He loves to point out the number of pages of threads and does it on a consistent basis already.

There should be something at the bottom of each page to denote how many pages there are so he doesn’t have to keep reminding us…

I know. He was a really good fit next to Nurk. :-( If you ain't hitting 3s, he don't give a fuck about you.

 

[kjironman1]

This is a serious question.

Does anyone know if the Grizzlies just got their second Covid Shots? Seriously they played almost exactly the same way the Blazers played against them in Portland? That team had way less energy and their shot was way off tonight. It was like the teams simply changed jerseys from the first and second game here.

I understand that was a solid win but to me that game was pretty much a given. There was no way Lillard and the rest of the team was going to go in and play flat tonight.

Dillon pissed off the Blazers. They were out to make a statement.

So two games in a row is a constant basis? A little bit surly no?
This team is not done yet by a long shot.
An old saying. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". The Blazers have been through a tough stretch. They will learn from it and the team will become stronger having worked through it together.

 

[Scalma]

Btw while it’s fuckkkk Dillon Brooks, I wish we had more guys like him on our team. We’re too nice.

 

[kjironman1]

Still doesn't account for the lack of energy and them missing pretty much everything in the first half. The Yogi's are a better team than that.

You’ve been slacking on the page count for the Fire Stotts Now thread. Don’t forget to update us on that one as well.

Well fortunately they know better now. This team isn’t good enough and completely in mediocracy.

I put him on ignore and I’m much happier for it.

 

[Tince]

I very much enjoyed that

I think mentioned that early on.

Is there a "Fire Stotts" thread? Wonder why i can't see that?

Damn, sucks that you “can’t see” it anymore. Who’s going to keep updating us on the page count for that thread. How will we ever know the page count going forward???
