It would be soooo great if the Blazers lost this one. Sadly, they probably won't.

EDIT: Also, I had a dream last night that the Blazers traded Timelord for Rob Dillingham and there was a lot of "HAHAHAHAHA" on this board.

I feel like even we win this game

Hahaha, this Blazer starting lineup SUUUUUUCKs.

Getting outplayed embarrisingly by one of the worst teams in the league without their best player.

Sharpe, Ant, Ayton and Grant might be the most un-intense quartet in the NBA.

I don't understand what's going on with Scoot. Anybody have any updates?

The Blazers have been piss-poor at communicating this season.

Okay, I recognize that I'm being a negative-nancy...but WTF?

This team looks laughably disorganized, and playing completely uninspired on both sides of the ball.

It's interesting to go from Stotts, who for all of his faults always had his teams playing beyond their talent level, to Chauncey who in no way has put his players in a position to succeed. I think people mistake "freedom" with "lack of structure". It's one thing to have freedom in a system, it's another thing entirely to have a lack of structure in your system. As is, players have no idea where there shots are going to come from and everyone looks lost after 2 passes on offense.

I can't wait for:
Chauncey
Simons
Ayton
Grant
To be off the team.

They're quite clear they're tanking with their silence :lol:

Given the unexpected wins earlier this season, I’ll allow it.

The Jazz are as bad as I was hoping the Blazers would be, so if they lose to them, it puts the Jazz on notice that this is still a **** team to be on the lookout for.

Yeah, the Blazers better not screw this up in the second half and go on a run and win. I'll be so pissed, lol.

Well I thought we'd win this and maybe we still do but dang this is an embarrassing half on our home court

PDXKnight · Post #14 » by **PDXKnight** » Sat Dec 7, 2024 4:13 am

I'm so pissed deni isn't starting regardless of his poor shooting night. Honestly we'd probably be better with him running point forward much of the game compared to ant running the offense

Blazers have always played down to bad opponents under Chauncey i feel like. I'm pleasantly surprised so far, I assumed the jazz were so bad we'd win and maybe we still do but so far utah looks motivated to help us in the standings

No way we win now holy cow

PDXKnight · Post #18 » by **PDXKnight** » Sat Dec 7, 2024 4:44 am

24-48 rebounds advantage utah. Pretty awful stat there at the surface, Or course we've missed a lot as well so that isn't helping

Blazers have a chance to go winless the rest of 2024. A lot of good teams the rest of the way in the year.
