Klay WIDE OPEN. No pride from this squad.

 

[BonesJones]

Just like the Clippers series. Feel them out and then make adjustments.

No it's fucking not. We were competitive for stretches in that game.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We get our lottery pick back now, right?

 

[Natebishop3]

We just don't have enough scorers. Aminu has been such a huge achilles heel in the postseason.

 

[VenomXL]

It'll be huge if they can get away with resting Curry this whole series.

 

[LuckyShot]

So, how many points do the Blazers spot the Warriors before the Blazers become unguardable?

We don't need to be guarded, we fuck ourselves over just fine by constantly bricking open shots or passing the ball directly to the other team or out of bounds.

 

[KingSpeed]

This is looking like Clippers series. Get blown out twice, go back to Portland and turn the series around.

 

[Cippy91]

You guys. It's one of the greatest teams if not the greatest team ever we are playing. What do you expect? We overachieved just by winning 44 games. This is kinda what I expected

 

[Strenuus]

This is good, allows Neil to see what we need to go up against the BEST.

win-win.

 

[Natebishop3]

Oh well, I have zero expectations for this series. I was hoping not to get embarrassed, but this is one of the best teams in the history of the league. We're just not there.

 

[KingSpeed]

No it's fucking not. We were competitive for stretches in that game.

This game isn't over.

 

[Tunchi]

This is looking like Clippers series. Get blown out twice, go back to Portland and turn the series around.

Except the Warriors are not fully healthy AND still we can't see them

 

[KeepOnRollin]

I know we only scored 17 but our issue won't be on the offensive end this series it will be a problem with defense.

 

[BonesJones]

Dude, he's hit 2 of our three FGs made. Lay off him.

Your love affair with Aminu is unexplainable. Do you really not see how bad he is?

 

[Jade Falcon]

This is good, allows Neil to see what we need to go up against the BEST.

win-win.

Whiteside. I'll be surprised if we get him though.

 

[Trackjack]

We shooting like we play clippers you get buried against this team if you do and guess right we are getting buried.

 

[MightyMouseOps1]

You have to faceguard Klay.

 

[Strenuus]

You guys. It's one of the greatest teams if not the greatest team ever we are playing. What do you expect? We overachieved just by winning 44 games. This is kinda what I expected

Like I've said, this is all gravy. No one expected us to get to the playoffs or win a series... this is all going to be good long term now. Itll allow Neil to see what we need to be competitive, AND get experience for the team. Win-win.

 

[Tunchi]

This game isn't over.

This series is over forget about this game

Atleast we'll have a team we know will stop LMA from getting a title

That's my silver lining for this

 

[SlyPokerDog]

You guys. It's one of the greatest teams if not the greatest team ever we are playing. What do you expect? We overachieved just by winning 44 games. This is kinda what I expected

I already chalked out my spot for the championship parade.

 

[Natebishop3]

It has been painfully obvious that we need more firepower. When you have Harkless/Aminu/Plumlee, that's 3 guys in the starting lineup that can't be counted on to hit an open shot. That makes us much easier to defend.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Well, we got punched in the mouth, maybe that will wake us up.

 

[craigehlo]

Slow rotations on D and the same indecisive offense.

 

[kingslayer]

Your love affair with Aminu is unexplainable. Do you really not see how bad he is?

Exactly. For every 10 games, he has maybe 1 decent game. I'd be fucking disappointed if he was still with the team next season.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Has anyone lost by 80 in the payoffs before?

 

[KingSpeed]

Stotts: It's a long game and a long series.

 

[Natebishop3]

Klay Thompson annoys me so much. I actually like Curry, and I appreciate Draymond's fire. Klay just strikes me as an entitled douche.

 

[BBert]

It's a good thing GS can't guard us.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I'm super happy we made it this far so I'm not even mad. We are way over matched and are playing for experience at this point. No way we win this. Sorry, KingSpeed.

 

[julius]

It'll be huge if they can get away with resting Curry this whole series.

If the rest of the series is like this, they won't need him.
