  • Total voters
    66
  • Poll closed .
Let me ask you all:
What can/should be done to stop PG??!! I guess its up to moe and chief. All I can do is hope he has an off night
There is simply no way Dame and/or CJ should go anywhere near him, regardless of the other matchups.

Russ
PG
Nerlens/Adams
Morris
Grant

how would you stop that line up?

First (impossible) job is for Moe to deny the ball. When that fails send a double off Ferguson or Grant. Rotate or recover.
 
I would like that 100x if i could...

Or terrible, depending on what happens.
 
Really wish I could be in the building for this game. You all better make it shake!
 
Of the following Blazers, who is the worst defender and makes the most turnovers...……….TURNER
In one recent game, I saw him shoot 10-15' jumpers scoring 0-5, he then loses the ball and the opposing team scores. Lancaster_LM756_PG-F_shot_down_Gary_Eason-2_xgaplus.jpg

"Portland has played on TNT this season, they've won 3 of them. Hopefully, TNT is good luck for us. It may be hard to believe, but this is actually the fifth straight home game in Portland that is nationally televised."
Great comment!
 
I took a day off from work tomorrow (what's the english Word? Vacation? I dont know haha) to watch this Game, so i stay awake till 4.30am when the Game Starts. PG is going for at least 40 for Sure, but maybe we still have a chance if we have a good shooting night. If we play like shit like we did in Memphis, i will be pissed
 
This is the most important game of the season so far, in my opinion. This will tell us if the Blazers are potential contenders or just first-round fodder. The team just came off a very successful road trip that ended with a bad taste. If they are truly ready to make some noise in the Western playoff race, they'll put the Memphis loss behind them and mop the floor with the Thunder. OKC has lost 6 of their last 8, and Paul George's shoulder injury is a big part of that, but they were on the skids before he left. That being said, their record is still no joke and a win against them at this point of the season would be huge for playoff seeding. Looking past the Thunder, the Blazers have some very winnable games and could possibly not lose again until San Antonio on the 16th. If they can beat the Spurs, they have a real possibility of running the table until the Denver back-to-back, but history says they'll probably drop 2 or 3 games they SHOULD win.

Contender: the Blazers win tonight in a blowout.
Pretender: the Blazers lose by high single digits and fingers are being pointed in the post game.

If the Blazers lose tonight are we not allowed to post any criticism because it's the first game back after a long road trip?

If they win I don't want to hear anyone whining about how PG isn't 100%. Or it was because Dame took over the wheel from Terry and won the game single handily.

I hear that when Dame's child was born, Stotts drove the mother to the hospital, delievered the bady, and demanded his name be put on the birth certificate as Dame "wouldn't be a man without me!":huh:

I'm thinking Dame has bailed out this team a few more times than Stotts.

But Dame like's that he's got a coach that gives him the freedom & confidence to take over when needed. As Terry has said "It's a players League" and as Dame has said "coaches can coach but players have to execute".
Who you wanting to replace Stotts?
