During halftime someone must have told the Blazers their loved ones would be killed if they lose this game.

And all the confidence Ricky was building of late, that he was passing to the team... he gets "jailed" again... yeah, reign ricky again, that sure went well in Barcelona.

pretty much the worst feeling to lose like this, and show no resilience. I didn't watch the first half, perhaps I shouldn't have watched the 2nd. Superstitious..

Wolves needed scoring and Rubio doesnt have that in him, sans Barea.

Shabazz played a good game last night, tonight he has been pretty bad, few offensive rebounds and a lot of missed shots inside.

Of course the Suns are winning.

That must be why we have 10 less wins. C'mon now. Portland's far better, especially defensively.

Man, i was just pissed like most of us. This team though, gives me heartaches every single time and yet i still continue to support them. Sad.

The playoff ship sailed long ago, I'm afraid.

The bench gave us a false sense of hope these past few games. Now we remember how bad they suck. The entire team showed they had to balls. Not a physical bone in their bodies.

No Rubio late wasn't the problem. Portland just got really hot and wanted it more.

Again that's not the guys fault!!!! that's our coach fault!! you dont allow a team in home to build that kind of momentum, you dont allow them to outwork us!!! you have to call 5 time outs in 6 minutes??? you DO SO!!! you have to say to one of your end of bench guys: hey, start a fight, do a unnecesary hhard foul, guys hack the heck out of them, throw them off his momentum... YOU FREAKING DO THAT!!!

YOU DONT JAIL YOUR PLAYERS IF THEYRE PLAYING BAD, you tell them what are they doing wrong and how to fix it!!!!

Would've helped. Offense was out of sync and we couldn't get any stops. Guys were over-dribbling and taking poor contested shots. We had zero ball handlers and our best one that was out there has the nickname 'drunken dribbler.'

Also, **** the NBA schedule makers, second of back-to back in portland.

Rubio definitely would have helped. Just in controlling pace. Our guys were just running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

both times Portland has played at Minnesota, they've been on the 2nd of a B2B

The starters actually dropped this one. When they came in at the end of the first half the Blazers went on a run and took the lead with the starters in later in the 3rd.
