thought I read "load mgmt" because we have back to back today and tomorrow, team probably figured little to no chance against Clips and with Nugs missing their lead guard out go for win vs Nugs

Not to mention that tonight's absent Lillard may be available against the Nuggets.

often teams without key players are harder to plan for. I think it’s a win or a close loss

Well, we didn't lose by 20+ to a playoff team so moral victory I guess.

Would appreciate if the GLBs had clearer pictures of their faces.

It's a shame to lose a game they likely should have won but a microcosm of the season with the
team doing the things that have driven most of us nuts all season.

george seems to have a kd like complex with the blazers ever since dame won that series

tough loss but gotta get our noses back on the grindstone. Good effort but hopefully we get it together with dame returning. unfortunately we were in a funk with him too so falling to 9th wouldn’t shock me with our inability to win against good teams all year

fine game. I enjoyed the defensive efforts and perfomances of Little and H-J. Their energy and leaping allowed Anthony to stay on the court in the 4th and provide the offense (pts and assists) which Covington and H Jones once again not offering much.

makes it an easy decision to not resign either in 2022 unless they show us quite a bit more (At this point i’m assuming jones picks up his option). Covington i think could be better but he doesn’t get to shoot it ever and meanwhile we have eyons of guys who chuck it nonstop.

I think 2022 marks a big point in our franchise, with some key players expiring and cj down to 2 more years then it’d be a decent point to consider if we wanna throw the towel to rebuild. Additionally if Dame still has anything left in the tank by then he potentially opts out in 2024 for a longer deal here or elsewhere so 2022 really is the point where we should start making some important decisions for once

I understand fan anger when their team gets upset; but it is mystifying to see the anger when their team does not pull off an upset.
