Chauncey Billups Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 103, Dallas Mavericks 139

What’s your initial thoughts on um just disappointing all the way around you know it was just a disappointing I never well I can’t say never but rarely this year have I set up here and just been disappointed in our effort you know our effort was poor it

Was lousy all game starters got us off to a bad start um with that and then just it was just tough it was just tough um so really just disappo wanted to be honest with you with the effort why do you think that happened given that you felt pretty positive about the

Practice yest yeah I don’t I can’t I can’t I don’t know why that happened um it’s kind of strange it’s kind of weird to be honest with you because we did you know we had a pretty spirited good practice yesterday and um you know we’ve had many many games where we just don’t

Make shots or we turn it over or with this or we that but not really it’s not really a real effort thing you know um I knew that they would play so much faster today without Luca because when he doesn’t play I mean they just they

Play fast they just run and Gun and play fast but we talked about you know we was prepared for it and um it was like it kind of threw us off a little bit but no matter how most teams play It Never Kills our fight you know and our spirit

So that that’s the disappointing part not that we lost and got blown out of course that sucks but but just the the the the lack of uh resistance is is is always going to be my issue you said before the game it’s always those other guys yeah those other

Guys with Jones Hardy and Hardway shot 67% combined yeah did you guys just not take that Lessing heart and just not I I’m telling you it’s crazy we we we talk about it you know of course if of course if there’s anything that I talk to y’all about I’m going to talk to

My team about you know times 10 so um we talked about it I thought we were prepared for it um but obviously we weren’t man we weren’t so I got to be better about preparing us for those type of situations and uh we all just have to be better I have to be

Better they have to be better you know we just all got to be better man has this team hit a wall at all with you know no excuses USA but the injuries the changes in lineups the losing at some point our team does hit a LW you got see

I think the lack of continuity um is has been has been hurtful to us uh we we lose so many players at times but then when we get guys back it throws rhythms off and I just don’t know I can’t put my finger on it but you know we leave

Phoenix and obviously we lost that game but man we fought so hard that game we just literally couldn’t make shots but man we fought hard as heck and um these last two have been the effort has been a little a little disappointing so I can’t really put my finger on it but we’ll

We’ll we’ll figure it out

  1. If itโ€™s not Chaunceyโ€™s fault, Then Fire All His inexperienced dumbass Coaching Staff.. at least we can do that to develop the young players.

  2. Weโ€™ve had some embarrassing losses, but this one takes the cake ๐ŸŽ‚
    Please get Chauncey Billups the hell out of here ๐Ÿ”ฅ

  3. He doesnโ€™t know what happened.
    – Itโ€™s kind of strange kind of weird.
    WTF does that mean??? ๐Ÿคฌ
    You get paid to know WTF is happening.
    Get this clown ๐Ÿคก out now!!! ๐Ÿคฏ

  4. First 10 games were ok. At least he had em playing defense and losing close games. Now were giving up 140 and getting blown out every game. I see no reason to keep the $100M guys. Trade Grant, Ayton, Simons and clean house. Why not? If were losing by 30 anyway might as well clear the bad contracts and get some picks for the future.
    As for billups, i like him but if hes lost the teams attention, time to move on

  5. At some point, the coach has to take some of the accountability. He has consistenly placed the blame on the players and just refuses to admit something is fundamentally wrong. Chauncey, you gotta own up that at some point, your leadership is the problem.

  6. Billups is the greatest coach alive! Well as long as you need a coach to consistently get you top five draft positioning. Dude is literally topping out as an assistant coach and thatโ€™s being hella generous. But when the โ€œownerโ€ doesnโ€™t care about the team winning or her brothers legacy then we get stuck with Mr blame everyone but himself.

  7. I thought Duop's effort was good as always. They missed bari and tisse being affected by injury didn't help.

  8. Bro Billups is making the blazers average a 13 seed in 3 years totalโ€ฆ. Lmaooooo I been sayin he ass and needs to get fired a year and half ago

  9. Grant, Simons, Brogdon and Ayton are following Dameโ€™s lead and want out of this rebuild and losing game schemes.

  10. Grant and Brogdan must be traded asap. They are taking playing time away from the young guys who will be here long term. Sharpe deserves to be starting, and the team needs to see if they can build chemistry and begin to develop the scoot, Ant, Sharpe lineup. See if those guys can grow together. Start Camara at 4 and Badji at the 5. Badji is the best screen setter they have, and that's saying a lot about other guys. Camara and Badji at least hustle and compete. SCOOT, SIMONS, SHARPE, CAMARA, BADJI. if you disagree, you can, but it's the wrong read on things. There should have been no priority on short term success AT ALL THIS SEASON, Portland just needs to develop youth and send out everyone else for draft assets and live with the record they end up with. Hopefully, netting a top 3 draft pick. Ayton can come off the bench for all I care bc he is softer than Charmin. They showcased Grant and Brogdan enough to find a suitor for them, Cronin. And look to move off Billups and Ayton in off-season. GM JOB is done with this comment.
