  1. Chauncey has an allergy to calling mandatory timeouts. Can we just apologize to Terry Stotts and bring him back.. cause its blatantly clear it was OLSHEY who was at blame

  2. Hey portland trail blazers why don't you have the courage to show your fan base the entire press conference?

  3. A few things
    1. SIGN A DAMN POST PRESENCE / REBOUNDER …. Nerlens Noel was just bought out that guy could get 3 blocks and 15 rebounds in 20 minutes of PT.
    2. Reddish is useless, plays like a deer in the headlights, can totally see why 2 teams already gave up on him. LET HIM GO
    3. Thybulle is a KEEPER, sign him at all costs !!!!!!! ….. IF the goal is to make deep playoff runs
    4. Billups is just NOT a good coach, it's debatable whether all these losses are due to him being outcoached. BUT, when have you ever though Billups outcoached another coach in his tenure?????????? ……………. I'll wait………………. He is just not a good coach, maybe inexperienced idk, I would rather have Stotts to be honest.

  4. Get this coach outta here he is not that guy not calling time outs on time he keeps starting cam over sharpe

  5. Like I tell everyone after each game Warriors in 6 ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  6. Aren't y'all glad they gave this rookie coach a multi year guaranteed deal?

  7. Making excuses for 3rd Quarter. Need to fire the coach, bench Grant, and start Sharp. We need to help Dame, his players and team is not playing with any urgency at all.

  8. Don't blame the players for not passing. Call a time out and get on them for not passing

  9. Soon as the team changes something Billups never changes with it. He just keeps doing the same thing. Good coaches can change things and not give up 50 point turnaround every time we get a 20 point lead.

  10. I feel like the players stopped playing for Billups already. No matter what Billups does this team doesn't want to win for him. Thybulle Lillard and Sharpe should be the only players we try and keep. Jerami Grant is overated. Nurkic hasn't been good since he broke his leg. Eubanks should not play center. He would make a great back up four but not a 5. He can't stop anybody bigger or faster.

  11. You have to love the ignorance of people who blame coaches for this. It truly makes one realize just how STUPID fans really are.

    I have said it before and I will say it again this isnโ€™t a coaching issue, It wasnโ€™t with Stotts and it isnโ€™t with Billups this is a Player problem.

    It was quite simple to see what was happening from the tip. gS was NOT going to let Dame score,
    This meant others were going to have to score and make shots and in the first half they didโ€ฆโ€ฆIn the second half they did not.

    This ainโ€™t rocket science PEOPLE wake the F up!!!!

  12. Great first half but in the end it turns to the worst game in this season. I hate blame someone spectacular but wtf is Keon Johnson doing on that team ?

    My problems with that team.

    1) Ant is a great backup for Dame. He don't need to start in my opinion.

    2) Sign Nerlens Noel or any defensive type of a center.

    3) When Dame is out play Watford as point center or point forward. Don't give minute to Keon Johnson.

    4) We need to take time outs on time.

    5) No tanking. We still can win west.

  13. Two things:
    1. Blazers are tanking, they obviously just canโ€™t admit it
    2. Everybody here complaining about Billups, refer to #1. Also, Dame got to pick his own coach after Stotts was fired, and he selected Chauncey (because Jason Kidd wouldnโ€™t take the job)

  14. Nice flannel Coach Billups!! Most fashionable Head Coach in the NBA?? Is there a tracker for Dame endorsed challenges? I wonder if the record Dame endorsed challenges would be better than Coach Billups. Assistant Coach Dame might win some but Dame just lost one against DiVincenzo.

  15. "you know we just got the ball into the middle and just passed it around…"

    -An NBA head coach with a 5 year contract

  16. Piss poor coaching when you donโ€™t own up to your own bs. Acting like heโ€™s not the one in charge of implementing a gameplan, if the players donโ€™t listen to you then they donโ€™t respect you and you should be fired immediately since itโ€™s been 1 3/4 seasons to earn that, if youโ€™ve lost the players then youโ€™re not a good coach. Great coaches show they are knowledgeable and respected by everyone who suits up for them. Proof is there wether youโ€™re a fan who admits it or not.

  17. Somthen is wrong..we blown 20pts leads in 5 or so games this year!! Come on coach!!

  18. love how people in the comments have a better brain than the Portland front office and Chauncey. I am a diehard blazers fan but seeing them lose like this breaks my heart

  19. Yep, I now fully believe that the blazers are tanking. The owner may be getting paid to this. Dame claims he isn't going to, which is why he scored 71 and the Blazers organization is lying. I also now think if Dame is being genuine, he needs to leave Portland. Not for a championship but because they don't feel the same about winning. That's unacceptable

  20. Sorry ass coach, when teams go on runs you call a timeout to stop the run not watch the other team like your a fan

  21. Why don't we sell out on defense and rebounds and stop trying to score 120 to win. Don't play a zone and never get a defensive rebound. Then take threes with everybody standing around the outside. You can't rebound like that.
