A win tonight and an OKC loss to Boston tonight and we'll be tied at 20-52 with 10 games left as the 3rd/4th worst teams in the league. On the bright side the Pacers winning their last two pretty much ensures we can't finish 5th worst. 4th worst is the highest we'll finish this season.

Right now it feels like.

4th worst record = 90% Chance
3rd worst record = 9% Chance
Worst or 2nd worst = 1% Chance

Man I really hope the Pistons win this game and Hayes does it for the team.

it would be amazing for so many reasons.

Good, keep giving the ball to Pickett

As much as I'd be ok with an L here for "the tank", I'd be even happier to see the young guys pull out a W. Mostly for Garza out there who always plays hard and works hard and has barely gotten any burn this season.

I hate winning irrelevant games.

Man I really hope the Pistons can pull this one out.

Also, the worst refereed game in the NBA season so far. They are what make the game a bad product.

Please no. Possible worst outcome IMO.

Cade is trying to single handedly make sure Portland has every opportunity to win.

Cade needs to work on his help D. It’s really bad

Cade understands the ASSIGNMENT at this point in the season LOL

Cade has some of the most unnecessary TOs ever. Its really one of the reasons i think he improves cause they're so correctable.

vege · Post #74 » by **vege** » Tue Mar 22, 2022 1:44 am

Cade with 9 TOs and playing with 0 energy

bstein14 · Post #75 » by **bstein14** » Tue Mar 22, 2022 1:45 am

What's crazy is that the Blazers have 0 starters and we have 4 of our 5 starters and many people want Bagley to replace Grant as a starter and we're just horrible. Cade not playing anything close to winning basketball even though he went 9-16 for 22 points.

Great tank loss tonight, best case scenario here.

Thank God for Williams. Never heard of him but I bet he earned himself some backup PG minutes

We've had some "good losses" recently. This was an ugly loss. I mean... I'll take it... but damn lol

I was worried for a moment, but Cade and Stewart were clutch at the end.

Looks like the downers win this round.
