We will playing Dallas on there back to back.

Honest question. Did Stotts coach the team to a victory? Or did the team win because Lillard went super nova in the final 5 minutes?

I know what the Stotts apologists will say.

Like most games, the coach has little impact on the outcome, win or loss.

 

[Irish Trader]

He quit on this team. Now we see why Miami ejected him. Not a team player Whiteside

 

[Dom McBlazer]

And with our win, the Pelicans are ELIMINATED! Payback's a motherfucker, ain't it?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Heart, guys who have it:

Dame
Nurk
Melo
Trent

Guys who don't:
CJ

Huh? CJ hit one of the most important shots of the game to cut it to 1 with a couple minutes left.

 

[Strenuus]

I heard from someone that dame was overrated.

Beautiful. When is the easy part of New Orleans' schedule??

 

[craigehlo]

Like most games, the coach has little impact with the outcome, win or loss.

At the very least he controls who is on the floor and who is guarding the opposing players. By that standard, Stotts is well below average.

 

[B-Roy]

I near had a heart attack this game I swear to fucking god.

Both

Somewhere, Silver is yelling at someone going "THE PLAN IS FAILING".

Lol, good one. Tell that to Coach Pop, Doc Rivers, Nick Nurse, Brad Stevens, and Coach Bud. You never cease to amaze!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Huge win! Schoking at the end...

Dame's offense snd Nurk's deffense in last minutes gave us this win.

Don't forget Nurk's free throws.

 

[Strenuus]

Im glad our overrated player helped us to a victory.

 

[B-Roy]

Time and time again I'm amazed by Dame's pure will. But I just can't help but think how good he would be under a coach who actually coaches.

 

[riverman]

Hell of a win...fun game to watch! One half game behind Memphis! Melo and Nurk were great at the end of this one! Go Blazers! Get the next one! Dame is a class act! Respect!

Because Dame has his shortcomings in the playoffs. Not ALL his fault, but still.....

 

[Haakzilla]

Dame with a Jordan'esque bounce back game to silence all the haters running their mouths

 

[oldmangrouch]

I'm glad we won, but man this team has issues.

No such thing as a bad win - but some wins leave you with more questions than answers. I have less confidence in the team (not Dame) then I did before the game.

Fuck that Nosferatu looking asshole

 

[Scalma]

This hasn’t been a well coached team in years man and it always gets exposed in these playoff scenarios. Dame Nurk and occasionally CJ just hide the issues with their individual play.

 

[Strenuus]

Because Dame has his shortcomings in the playoffs. Not ALL his fault, but still.....

I remember someone saying dame was overrated.

 

[tykendo]

Don't Doubt Dame! Man! another trip down Ulcer Gulch. But special players come up big, time, and time again. The season was on the brink and somehow, someway, the Letter O gets it done.

I love updating these graphs -





Dame is awesome.

Who did you want defending who in todays matchup?

Best player ever to play for us

 

[perkinsfor3]

Obviously he snapped out of a funk, but imagine having Jrich run the backcourt with Dame.
