wtf. That's more egregious than any of our retiring fiascos. But if they really wanted to be douches, then they should have held the ceremony for a game vs PHX.
 
Everytime i watch the Spurs and see how well Tony Parker is playing, I think about the trade that almost was: Batum, Miller and a first round pick for Parker but SA insisted Portland also take back Richard Jefferson in the deal and Portland wouldn't do it. By the Way, Jefferson is shooting .454 from three this year.

Ok when I first saw this I thought, "Eh ... do I really want to invest my time?" Well now that I have I can tell you that was probably the best 9 minutes and 22 seconds I have had in awhile. If you love Steven A. or hate him for that matter that was awesome. His bipolar swings from literally screaming at the top of his lungs to whispering at the drop of a dime had me rolling and literally laughing out loud. Thank you yuyuza1 for making my day. If I could rep you again I would.

On a side note I cant help but take a little bit of pleasure in the Knicks demise. And maybe Baron will come in and spark that team but its a scary scary day when Baron is your last hope. The only way this situation could be any better is if CP3 gone to the Knicks and they were struggling like this.

To be perfectly honest; I don't think any loss can have any excuse. I firmly believe we have the capability to beat anyone in this league. The Blazers are their worst enemy.

So we have the second coach firing already, less than a month into the season.

Flip out from WAS.

we don't have the capability to beat every team in the league under any circumstances, unless you're saying we're the best team in the league which would be insane.

obviously some games are easier than others. if we were the team on the 2nd of a back to back on the road up against a good team, and coming off an emotional high effort win the night before, we would certainly be excused if we can't pull it off.

Nah I don't think we have any excuse. And yeah I think we are good enough to beat any team in the league, and I'm not insane. We have the tools; we just need to use the tools correctly. I don't think we've done it yet this season; and we still have a pretty damn good record.

Also, our play on the road is dismal. I mean almost embarrassing. And that was all constituted on our inability to play to our potential. Hands down.

when you say we don't have an excuse to lose any game you're saying we're the best team in the league. you'll have a tough time finding anyone around here who doesn't think that's crazy, or at least some serious wishful thinking.

Well, I don't think it's wishful thinking. And the moment that this team realizes they can; they win!!!!

Yes at this point we should be 15-2, its pathetic this team doesn't care about playing hard.

I was being pessimistic and claiming 14-3. I thought our only losses would be to Thunder, Clippers and SAS.
 
Slam is now reporting that KLove agrees to 4 year, max 62 mil extension.
 
Another victory for Kahn! I like this guy only because everyone hates him.

Yes I was being pessimistic as well, 15-1 is probably a more realistic expectation.
 
So much for that:

@kevinlove
If you read it on the Internet it must be true right? #sarcasm

@ESPNSteinLine
Two sources close to process tell ESPN com that Kevin Love has NOT yet agreed to contract extension and that talks are still "ongoing". No decision from Love on whether to accept Wolves' current offer or become restricted free agent in July to come before WEDS, sources say

Adding to report from our @Chris_Broussard; Sources say deal will be signed after shootaround now that Kevin Love gets opt out after Year 3
 
If im the blazers I give batum 7 per yr MAX, anything more is terrible
