No shot???

 

[LuckyShot]

LOL

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

thats all on Hark;less

 

[LuckyShot]

Fuck you, refs.

 

[Boise Blazer]

We still refuse to box out... One thing I hate about the NBA

 

[oldmangrouch]

I think Zach is starting at PF next season.

That should be good for about -6 wins.

 

[riverman]

Millsap is a killer

 

[GhostOfPGA]

That’s a foul?

 

[Jade Falcon]

Collins - 6pts, 2 reb
Plumlee - 0pts, 3 reb

Blaming Zach makes 0 sense.

Oh sure, just ignore the rest of Plum's play-making.....

And are you telling me that you wouldn't take Griffin over Collins?

 

[hoopsjock]

Cut it to 15 with a wide open 3 clang, and then lets give them an and-1 on the other end.

 

[BonesJones]

Sorry but that's nonsense. Not having our second best player is not Stotts' fault. Not having our second best player makes coaching a lot harder, especially in the playoffs, and he's managed to have this team do pretty damn well, considering the circumstances.

Don't even get me started. He coached a great first round (but also was going against an incompetent coach in Donovan).

I even admitted he did. Sadly, every time he makes progress, he regresses. I don't know if he gets complacent and thinks that, after every good stretch the "points of emphasis" are ingrained in the team so he doesn't need to emphasize them anymore, but this dude always regresses. I can admit when he's done well and admit when he struggles. Far better than most of the posters on here who are one way or the other.

Boggles my mind how he's completely immune to criticism for some people, because he coached well in the 1st round, or because somehow he can do no wrong if Nurkic is hurt.

 

[LuckyShot]

We just aren't allowed to be near them when they shoot, but they just hack the shit out of us repeatedly...

 

[BonesJones]

Oh sure, just ignore the rest of Plum's play-making.....

And are you telling me that you wouldn't take Griffin over Collins?

Plumlee has 1 assist.

And where the fuck did I say that? Because I don't think Plumlee has outplayed Collins this game means I want Collins over Griffin (who I've been leading the charge for)?

I hate that argument tactic.

 

[illmatic99]

Where is the aggression? where is the fire

 

[Sarni]

Refs have been bad but this loss will not be on them. Lack of defensive effort and chaotic offense is what we should be looking to blame. I mean we are down by 20 and will probably lose by 30-40 at the end. It’s not on refs.

 

[Titan]

Well soon it will be garbage time

 

[Jade Falcon]

He makes 31+ mil a year tho

Worth it. Dame, CJ, Nurk, Griffin, and, say, Hood or Moe is a contending team.

 

[hoopsjock]

Please sit Aminu on the end of the bench with Turner and have someone glue them down to their chairs so they can't come back in.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Why do our players seeming not know that Denver is going to try to steal the ball when we have it??? It's simple shit like this the players are failing at. That's not on the coach.

 

[LuckyShot]

We still look like we did in game 1 like we have no plan.

 

[LayneStaley]

Chief is BAD.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

This is embarrassing

 

[illmatic99]

GTFO Blazers this is an embarassment

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

At some point a coach needs to coach....

 

[LuckyShot]

Yep wheels have fallen completely off.

 

[hoopsjock]

It's his fault if he isn't holding them accountable for it.

 

[illmatic99]

TERRY WAKE THE FUCK UP> BENCH PEOPLE

 

[LayneStaley]

Unless a 12-0 run is coming this quarter I’m done.

 

[illmatic99]

At some point a coach needs to coach....

or fuck. do something. useless piece of shit

 

[Sarni]

We should sit our starters now and concentrate on game 6.
