[Strenuus]

Sure I will, but will all of you who had false hope be ok?

Who said I had false hope?

I said warriors in 5.

Wanna try again?

Fun Forum Fact:

All the ones who are currently claiming they knew the Blazers were going to lose didn't make a prediction in the prediction thread.

 

[KingSpeed]

Not that I can find.

Maybe it was regular season. I remember the Drexler Hakeem one. Maybe that's what I'm thinking,

 

[THE HCP]

What an absolutely amazing block by Green. The unfortunate part is, I can't give him props or respect because he acts like a complete assface after. Stares at Dame and runs around acting like a clown. Act like you've been there before. More frustrated by his actions then I am by him stopping us.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Big Warriors fan are ya?

Dude, it was a great block. Appreciation is deserved

 

[A$AP Meyers]

What a disappointing game by Harkless.

I thought Turner actually played quite well.

 

[kingslayer]

Good effort tonight Blazers. Better showing than most were expecting.

 

[Elton]

Here comes the hero ball nonsense.

 

[Jon]

Welp.... that was fun....

 

[crandc]

I never predict Blazers losing.

 

[Red Rooster]

This loss is solely on everyone not named CJ or Dame. Not the refs, not anything else.

 

[BonesJones]

Aminus not even that good of a defender. Dude is all-around trash.

 

[B-Roy]

Here comes the hero ball nonsense.

Warriors are doing the same thing, they just have better hero ballers

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Fuck Mark Cuban

 

[Mediocre Man]

Do you have kidney stones in addition to your other health issues?

My health issues are holden. Yes, I have kidney stones. They fucking suck. Flare up every so often. This morning was one of those days. Better now though

They have legitimate heros that aren't munchkins.

Glad you're on the mend.

The funny thing is, the Warriors only have their title in 15 because of the fact it was against LeBron James and a team of bums.

They won 73 games last year, had a 3-1 series lead AND HCA, and still lost.

They'll eventually choke when they play against a better team (than Portland).

 

[Nikolokolus]

Dubs have played incredible defense this quarter. Some of you can squawk all you like about the Blazers not stepping up, but this isn't happening in a vacuum.

 

[Blazinaway]

all that money into Crabbe-Meyers-ET

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Fuck you Draymond

 

[Strenuus]

Does Draymond forget everything? He gets excited about everything like he's never done it before.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I can't wait for Nurk to dominate Green. Bullies getting popped by bigger dudes is awesome.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

ya our role players need to hit their open shots

 

[A$AP Meyers]

This loss is solely on everyone not named CJ or Dame. Not the refs, not anything else.

I actually thought Turner played quite well. He's played his ass off.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

CJ McCollum has recorded the second game of 40+ points in his career (reg. season and playoffs) - 43 points at MIN, 1/1/17.

I passed one about a year ago, 6mm by 11mm. It took 2+ years to pass from when I was first diagnosed with it.

 

[Mediocre Man]

great effort. Just like the Alamo, we need more soldiers

 

[PDXFonz]

Tough game man, we could have stolen one if guys weren't missing their open looks. They'll watch tape of this and won't hang their heads

 

[SlyPokerDog]

CJ McCollum is the 8th Trail Blazer to score 40+ points in the playoffs (Aldridge-2, Drexler, Lillard, Porter, Roy, Thompson, Wells).
