    Just goes to show you, in the playoffs, you pretty much go as your best player goes.

    Yep, like Aminu whose playing like an absolute scrub but against the Rockets he can’t miss a shot.

    Portland going to be that one home team that loses on opening day. There’s no way Lillard should be first team all nba...ever.

    Dame barely shoots 40% from the field for his career in the playoffs...TS% is below average at 54% too and his PER isn’t even above 19

    that type of production from your franchise player in the playoffs is highly suspect, but we did have dudes on here saying that they would trade Harden for Lillard tho

    Stop being a dick. I haven't watched any blazer's or Pel games outside of us playing them. Extrapolating that into that comment is just being obtuse. Not gonna say anything or get into a dick measuring contest about who "watches more games."

    If you want to be a grown up, I figured that a team with a big man like davis would play a slower pace as opposed to a team of chuckers like Portland. If you've watched basketball, you'd know thats a perfectly reasonable assumption to come to .

    Team is dumb asf. Feed your beast AD. Unless he's tired right now, no excuse for not getting him the ball.

    Portland has been reeling this game back for a while now. Certainly have the momentum.
