Big night. Houston also plays Utah.

Ideally we beat Dallas and Utah beats Houston which would put us:

6. Portland 37-35
7. Dallas 35-36
8. Utah 35-36
9. Houston 35-37
 
What's gonna annoy me the most about this game is swing a guard switch on dirk. I know it's gonna happen. Never changes. This should be out win though. They played out of their minds last game. Dirk wasn't missing. Wesley was 4 of 4 from three which I would buy pre injury but he hasn't shot it that well from three this year. Their whole offense wasn't missing. Plus our defense wasn't that spectacular. I predict a blowout by us or at least beating them by 8 or 10

Wes was 5 for 5 actually, but your right.

Didn't know it was this close. We need to win this one and start playing better basketball again or we could be out of the playoffs.
Gotta bring some intensity, on defense and on offense. Can't just raise a hand on their 3s, we need to bring our level of basketball back to where it was 3 weeks ago. Even do the same things but do them with will, with integrity, play like a team, play strong
 
The couple days off should help us get our legs back under us. I really believe the last 2 road trip really took alot out of us.
 
Couple of weeks ago Blazer fans were touting Stotts for coach of the year...... now he has to prove himself against his coaching nemesis.
Is Carlisle the Kevin Spacey character in Swimming With Sharks, constantly reminding Stotts he will "never" be the man? Come on Terry,
death by papercuts......
 
I was going to be at this game. But... Not working out.

Great movie
 
We better have a different defense today.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Change it up, Terry. A decrepit Deron and Dirk should not drop 70 on us again.
He changed it up during last game
 
And I hate it when people say that. That is not the definition of insanity. If you keep trying, a different result is possible. As one with bipolar disorder, I know what true insanity is.
 
I don't even know this Dallas coach, but I can already tell he's far superior to Stotts.

I predict another disappointing Stotts loss tonight. But I'm hoping for a win.

Me too. I only really hate it when people ask "so you're bipolar person, hunh?" There's a whole stigma that comes with it that is as bad what we have to deal with. It's like anything else in life.... diabetes, epilepsy, whatever. I suffer from the condition but it doesn't define me.

For people who criticize Stotts for not making adjustments, he adjusted in the 4th quarter last game and is now adjusting with a new starting lineup today.
 
Anyway we can get that German shooting guru who taught Dirk to work for us?
