Game Thread 2019-20 Preason #5 @ Denver Nuggets October 17th, 2019 6:00 PM

[James lamphear]

We have 11 turnovers so far Simons and Zach has 8 of them that needs clean that up.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Whose brilliant idea was it to put Simons on Cockitch?

Simons is going to struggle running the point. But I guess he needs to learn somehow

That's why I applaud Terry for putting him against Conley yesterday. It's preseason. Let him go and learn from vets and from mistakes.

 

[James lamphear]

A lot positive things happen that half for these players. Now some players like to forget that half like Zach really didn't shoot the ball well and numerous turnovers plus he got his block tooken away. The positive he been hitting the boards with 8 that's a good sign.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Barton never played this good for us. Fuck this guy.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Why'd everybody disappear; just because they couldn't get this game on tv?

 

[James lamphear]

We are still in the game but the turnovers killing us.

Looks like that doesn't.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

That's better, Collins, show some finesse.

Surprised Denver is playing their starters so much. I’m all for it. Wear them down for opening night.

 

[James lamphear]

Just like that Zach got double double in the game. But in bad way he get triple double with 4 more turnovers.

They wanted us in the Playoffs. Huge upset from their perspective. They're taking any game against us seriously.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Denver is ridiculously deep.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I like to see Hezonja hitting threes; that would make him a much more dangerous player if he could do that consistently.

 

[James lamphear]

Mario having great night with 18 points.

 

[James lamphear]

Down by 3 going in the 4th.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man Mario will be so nice if he can keep hitting jumpers at decent clip. He does everything else pretty well already

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

My man Moses.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

This is not track, Moses.

 

[rotary111]

I'm still pullin for Hoard.

 

[James lamphear]

Last 2 games Baze and Mario have shot the ball well that's a good sign.

 

[Paine Tablet]

I think the summer league was better than the 4th quarter in terms of quality of basketball.

This group not very good but let play because they all be cut by tomorrow.

 

[James lamphear]

Well there was a lot of positive tonight Baze and Mario that will lead our 2nd unit this year. Zach had a better 2nd half and got double double tonight. We got a lot scorers this year and it looks like we might have strong season. Next week it all start for real go Blazer!

 

[hoopsjock]

Man I love Simons but I think he’s going to really struggle as a point guard this season. Why we don’t have him as a pure shooting guard off the bench is beyond me

He's not really playing a traditional point guard role though. That's why Hezonja and Bazemore will stay with the 2nd unit.

 

[kjironman1]

That's the thanks I get for my contributions, huh?

Well, as they say.....the Greats are seldom recognized for their achievements.

Ohhh. That's why i never get recognized for my achievements. I thought maybe you guys just didn't like me.

 

[HailBlazers]

I descriminate against speech to texters.

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

 

[SIeepwalker]

If Mario can shoot the 3 at the league average he's gonna be good for us. I've liked what I've seen the last 2 games

Happy that Moses got that 2-way

Trent is definitely not ready yet. Hopefully he can amount to something eventually.

Still not sure who I like more at PF with the 2nd unit, Skal or Tolliver ? I'm not high on Skal and I've seen things I like from Tolliver. Plus, he's a vet to put in will all the young guys.
