When Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander hit a buzzer-beater to defeat the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday night, he not only spoiled Damian Lillard achieving the franchise scoring record, he soured the mood of plenty of Blazers fans. In the aftermath, the Blazer’s Edge Mailbag was full of lamenting, much of which centered around Portland’s guards. Anfernee Simons was the main target, but Lillard got a bit of criticism too, despite his accolades.
A representative sample makes our Blazer’s Edge Mailbag today, in anticipation of Portland’s rematch with the Thunder tonight.
Dave,
I’m getting sick of this.
