Geez what an embarrassing loss

Another game 27 franchises would probably fire a coach. I guess a high lotto pick will make it worth this..

This looked like a game where the Coach has lost the players...the kind of body language that suggests they don't trust that what the coach has them running puts them in a position to win. Looking at the upcoming schedule it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Blazer honeymoon to begin the season may be over. I expect the Blazers to only win a couple of games to finish 2024.

Don’t even know if this deserves a CGLB lol.

But legit, shots fired Jazz. Consider yourself **** team served.

My patience with Sharpe is wearing pretty thin. Looks like he just doesn't have the heart of a competitor...which isn't the worst thing, there are a lot of players in NBA history with all the talent and potential but don't really want it, so they coast on talent. Sharpe has always looked like one of those.

I sure hope if the Blazers have a chance at a top-tier SG in the '25 draft they don't pass it up because Sharpe is in place.

I was at a neighborhood party tonight, came back and there was like a minute left in this game and I’m like WTH? Seriously what the heck happened?

I am hoping I can watch a replay, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to, or even wanted to look at the score but holy crap this is looks bad

Now I’m watching the after game show and Danny Marang is totally defending Billups & the vets, saying firing (Billups) or benching (vets) is not going to make a difference.
So just do nothing I guess?

Seriously, what a clown. The guy cares more about dropping names of the players he has talked to than he does about giving meaningful analysis.

Toumani played 8min, what happened?

New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

not sure how anybody could have observed what has happened in Portland since Dame was traded and be happy with anything about the team except losing more games for the lottery

as I've been saying: dumpster fires on every level

Utah is already bad, but the annual dumping of the vets is fast approaching. Blazers better catch up as much as possible now, because Utah is going to be a train wreck very soon.

Jokes aside, I’m low key jelly of a GM that knows it’s good to dump vets asap for nothing when rebuilding.
