If we lose this game Stotts may not be back next year...

 

[BonesJones]

Pathetic weak ass foul Moe... TERRY!!! Fix it.

 

[Wade Garrett]

This is pathetic. Seriously guys? You're at home against a team missing it's 3 best players and you're struggling to not completely blow a 14 point lead? Smh.

Without Nurk, Dame HAS tp go superman mode, or they're gonna be playoff fodder.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Blazers are blowing it.

 

[LuckyShot]

What the fuck are you doing with these soft ass fouls, Harkless? Either foul them to stop the shot or let them score.

 

[BonesJones]

What, is, our, offense. ?

 

[illmatic99]

Dame needs to slow down.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahhaahahaha

 

[BonesJones]

Good take Dame.

 

[DDolla]

Are we a playoff team?

 

[VenomXL]

This is PATHETIC. This is the kind of effort that really drives me crazy about this team. Where is the killer instinct?

 

[H.C.]

You realize this was before the Phil Jackson era?

I really don't care before, during or after.
NBA players have lives outside of basketball.
Shoes, boxing, gambling, twitch, etc.
It's okay also.

You've been told by a Blazer media broadcaster who visits this site daily. That your take on his pre-game warmup is wrong.
He even offered to give you inside access to it.

You're really going to struggle on this site if you think you know more than everyone else.
Or rather. The people willing to read your posts will be limited, so you'll find less and less people to talk to.

 

[BonesJones]

Dame needs to slow down.

I thought he needed to attack more? I'm confused.

 

[Nurkalicious]

Dame woulda finished that dunk with a better pre game warm up...

 

[VenomXL]

Dame tried to murder Plumlee.

 

[BonesJones]

What the hell are these turnovers???

[illmatic99]

we'll be lucky to win a single game in the playoffs

 

[H.C.]

Rodney Hood is so much better than Turner on both ends.

 

[BonesJones]

Great finish Rodney.

I’ve seen his pre game warm ups myself lol. This isn’t confidential information buddy.

I think I’d be ok with less people like you talking to me. Thanks

If you wanna act like you know basketball better than PHIL JACKSON, go ahead. I’m gonna go with Phil on this one...

 

[VenomXL]

Get defensive rebound, get pick-pocketed, give up a three. Nice.

 

[LuckyShot]

We're sleepwalking because they are resting their players and planning on turning it on in the 4th..

 

[H.C.]

He knows what he's doing...

I agree, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he is indeed a new account.
He might know a lot about basketball, but so do other people. So posting like he is, isn't going to make people want to continue to read his posts.
It's going to get people to use a certain function on this site.

 

[Jade Falcon]

If Denver had a full team, this would be a blowout.

 

[illmatic99]

I thought he needed to attack more? I'm confused.

hes making really stupid decisions. combined with this shooting slump, it's not a good look

sigh.
Do remember you initiated this conversation.
This is exactly what I'm talking about.
I know better than you, that's for sure.

 

[BonesJones]

Possessions where no one but Turner touches the ball usually aren't successful.

You're wasting your time. Look at his behavior in the last game thread. He was practically gloating about trolling the everyone in that thread.

 

[brooklynballer]

Atlanta has a ton of cap space and likely won't add anyone. They don't want Prince, and don't see him as a part of their future. Getting two stop gap forwards that expire as the same time as Bazemore and Plumlee and getting 1 or 2 firsts for it makes a lot of sense.

They took on Carmelo's $25.5M, and only got one pick. It's not completely unrealistic to think that they'd take on $28M for two picks and a guy that isn't a part of their future.

I don’t disagree with the logic. There’s suckers in front offices all over the NBA. If the Blazers can shed those contacts per your suggestion, more power to them. I’d certainly welcome both moves - just don’t think they’re likely with all of the crazy contracts signed in the summer of 2016 all coming due next year.
