Quotes from Blazers' forums-"If you don’t like third quarter collapses, you don’t like Blazers basketball"

[NAOS]

Donovan is right where Lillard was at his age. In a few more years it is possible he could be Lillard with a little more defense.

DM’s defense is headed in the wrong direction, doe.

Very encouraging offense, doe.

“We are watching a team who does everything we suck at. They play together, they play hard, they play smart, they get the best shot seemingly every possession, they might not be as talented as us, but guys know their roles.”


I laughed my *** off at this comment. This is the one Blazer fan in the bunch that just isn’t very self aware. The Jazz roster is considerably more talented than Portland’s. While it’s not just a matter of Utah players knowing their roles, it just so happens that, yeah, they’re much better at that too.

Jazz could sweep their way through the finals and 75% of all NBA fans would swear that their team has "more talent" than the Jazz. Same is true when the Cougars or Utes are good too. . .

Full disclosure. I always thought this of Nebraska football too. . .

Nah this is a highly typical NBA fan. The vast majority of fans only know their own teams and whoever else is making major headlines. And every fan wants to think his team is just ::::this::: far from winning it all. Since the jazz don't really get the headlines and their players are more or less unknown this will be the typical response from the typical NBA fan.
