God. Lillard.

The Blazers defensive system sucks, it makes every opposing PG look like a super star.

Been saying that since we got Stotts, but he refuses to even try something different. You'd think after 3 years these guys could handle being asked to defend the most basic play in basketball more than one ineffective way.

 

[Strenuus]

Stotts rotations are dreadful.

Kaman is STILL out there instead of beibs. Because... they clog the paint (Memphis) but NO... lets not spread the floor. Idiotic.

 

[ripcityboy]

Oh man.

 

[MickZagger]

yeah we suck.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Crowd getting restless.

 

[craigehlo]

Interior defense of the Blazer is beyond a joke.

But, if we try to defend the pick and roll how will we ever have the energy to miss 3s?

 

[Rhal]

How many shots like that has Memphis made this series? Its fucken rediculous.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

Jesus christ that shot is just a testament to this series. Fuck everything

 

[Blazer4ever]

Steve Blake redefines being soft on offense. He isn't unable to make shots, he is not even able to take shots.

 

[santeesioux]

Can we just not bother to play the last game, please?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

The grizzly passes are just fucking perfect, over and over again.

 

[LuckyShot]

We need Steve Blake to pick a fight with someone.

 

[Blazer4ever]

I would consider playing Lamarcus as a SF, Dirk used to do it, I think against a team like Memphis, I'd play him with two other bigs.

 

[Strenuus]

Gonna go over to the Grizz board and congratulate them on a good series. Just don't even play the 4th game.

 

[santeesioux]

It's time for Blankey to retire.

 

[Rhal]

How the hell was that not a foul?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Fast breaks... We can't do them lol

 

[Strenuus]

I KNEW that once we had a fast break we wouldnt even get an attempt. Disgusting.

 

[KingSpeed]

Well, we won the quarter.

 

[MickZagger]

Its going to be really interesting to see how this offseason unfolds. Lets see if Olshey can make some magic happen, I guess?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

"Refs you suck! Refs you suck!"

 

[BBert]

Board in full meltdown.

LOL.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Well it's down to 10, we can do this. We need Dame time though.

 

[LuckyShot]

Fast breaks... We can't do them lol

Seems like whatever I yell at the player to do on my TV screen, they do the opposite and fuck it up 3/4 of the time.

 

[Strenuus]

Board in full meltdown.

LOL.

I wouldn't even consider it a meltdown. Just an acceptance of the situation.

Start yelling at the Blazers to miss 3s and suck on D then.

 

[ripcityboy]

Well. Hopefully Altman will have a good team Eugene next winter.
