We know where Strenuus stands. Here come Nik, MM, and HCP.

It's a process. These losses don't bother me... much.

 

[KingSpeed]

You're not embarrassed that we choked away a clearly-won game last night, and lost what should have been an easy win against a mediocre Denver team?

Get your priorities strait. This is the NBA. I expect my team of professionals to win these kinds of games. I'm sorry if you don't.

But we're a 24 win team. Why was this supposed to be an easy win? All the NBA writers had us 29th in the NBA.

You're in rare form tonight... You need to either get some pussy or smoke some weed. One of the two.

 

[The Professional Fan]

After 8 games, I'm not mad at 4-4. Let's BEAT LA to get back to over .500!

All this, and more of this.

 

[Strenuus]

You said "at least it wasn't an easy win."

I told you to honor my request. Please do so.

You knew exactly what I meant, and prefer to carry on. I am stopping this. I would like you to do so, as well.

 

[BonesJones]

1 assist in the 4th quarter for the Blazers? We gotta stop the hero ball crap in the 4th. We seem to start out the game with great player and ball movement, but as the game closes, we tend to go 1 on 1 and iso.

Hero ball was the only thing working... 1 assist is from dudes missing shots

 

[BlazerBeav]

Trouble with lottery picks is we have a ton of them on the roster and yet we're a lottery team. Is one more going to help?

 

[Sinobas]

Last night was pathetic....41-11 is pathetic no matter what. Tonight, we would have won this as a close game if the refs didn't royally fucking up. But it shouldn't have even been close. The nuggets are a bunch of losers.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Do you wanna hit this??

Actually I'm gonna go smoke a miniature Romeo y Julieta. Goodnight folks.

Goddammit.

 

[Chris Craig]

Damnit Blazers you ruined my birthday....

We played shitty tonight....we better beat the spurs...I don't care if Dame has to score 50

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

 

[BonesJones]

We need to hire Thibs.

 

[Sinobas]

Will be interesting to see what Henderson and Alexander could bring.

Yeah Faried was totally fucking moving, then plums was strait up on a chaotic hickson who just threw himself towards the rim...bullshit

 

[BBert]

Dame 0-6 in the fourth.

Crabbe 4-12

Aminu 5-16

Only Leonard and Plumlee shot 50% or better.

Silver lining: Plumlee 5-7 from the line! Woo-hoo!

 

[KingSpeed]

Give Hickson and the rook the credit. They hit their shots when it mattered. Let's win the next one!

 

[Strenuus]

Lets go beat the spurs on Wednesday!

Don't like the national tv late start... but, I think Dame goes off and LA has a double double in remorse and guilt.

 

[Sinobas]

Yeah Faried was totally fucking moving, then plums was strait up on a chaotic hickson who just through himself towards the rim...bullshit

And they missed an obvious goaltend on a Vonleh shot in the 3rd.

 

[KingSpeed]

Jesus Christ, will we win on Wednesday?

 

[Darkwebs]

Yeah, Mudiay did not look like a rookie tonight.

 

[Chris Craig]

What do the refs have against the Blazers anyway

 

[Darkwebs]

Jesus Christ, will we win on Wednesday?

I think the Rose Garden crowd will make sure of it.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Jesus Christ, will we win on Wednesday?

Based on the last two nights, doubtful.

 

[Strenuus]

Jesus Christ, will we win on Wednesday?

Yes.

Oops.

 

[Strenuus]

Based on the last two nights, doubtful.

Jesus Christ is a magic 8-ball? :MARIS61:

 

[Chris Craig]

Jesus Christ, will we win on Wednesday?

Ask the refs

 

[TBpup]

Strenuus is glad we lost. Even smiles about it. Now we know where he stands.

I think he stands for bigger improvement long term versus a few wins in a season where we likely won't make the playoffs.

 

[PCmor7]

Trouble with lottery picks is we have a ton of them on the roster and yet we're a lottery team. Is one more going to help?

Is one more going to hurt?

Honestly, this is kind of like saying "We don't want the next Durant or LeBron or Harden because they might be the next Darko Milicic."

People who thought this team was built to win this year need to ask themselves a question: Why hasn't Chris Kaman played a minute of meaningful playing time? The answer to that question should tell you what Blazer management is doing.

 

[KingSpeed]

Jesus always pops into these threads. Where is he now?

 

[KingSpeed]

Jesus Christ is a magic 8-ball? :MARIS61:

No, he's a poster on S2. He posted in this thread.
