Damn!

 

[twobullz]

Ant has as many Turnovers and fouls as he does points tonight. He doesn't have it going tonight.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I’m telling ya denver is going to win this

 

[Cugel]

what the hell is this crap?

 

[OneSport3]

I really don’t get why coaches value timeouts as if they are gold. Use the timeout!

 

[wizenheimer]

Blame Simons guys. I told ya sit his down it’s not his day

look who shows up when the Blazers get cold....didn't say a fucking thing in the 3rd Q

 

[AldoTrapani]

Say what?

Say what??

 

[Freshtown]

Billups lets the opponent run go on for 5-8 points longer than it needs to before calling a TO. Maybe the 15th time he’s done that this season.

 

[DDolla]

Look at Simons… just like CJ, can’t even get to the line when shooting is not there

Dude I said way earlier in the game even when we were up Denver got this. You can just tell the way the game is going

He's getting mauled at the rim and not getting calls

early foul trouble completely knocked him off his game.

still time to bounce back

 

[AldoTrapani]

He does nothing if he isn't shooting well. No defense, no passing no nothing

Same complaint many fans have about their coach. Can't call a timeout after every 5-0 run.

refs aren't really giving him a fair whistle so far

He's bad at Timeouts and Challenges.

 

[HailBlazers]

Their defense is damn good

 

[Mr. Robot]

maybe chauncey should take ant out and play hart at the guard and later in the game if we need pts, bring him back

 

[MickZagger]

Say what??

Had a feeling you’d start popping off again after Lillard and Grant went to the bench

 

[Cugel]

in trouble, this team is allergic to big leads.
take ant out
get him the fuck out
thats on nurk

 

[MickZagger]

When did Nurk get the Lloyd Christmas haircut?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Why is Ant playing?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Ant is going to cost us this shit

 

[Idog1976]

That was a foul on Nurk sadly.

 

[FlashWad]

SO nice to have Lillard back.

 

[Tince]

11pts in the first 9 minutes of the quarter. Going to need to warm up down the stretch!

 

[DDolla]

Dame so smart getting to the lone. That’s what Ant need to learn and improve

 

[OneSport3]

Same complaint many fans have about their coach. Can't call a timeout after every 5-0 run.

That’s where the nuance of being a coach should come in. It was clear to everyone that the team was out of sorts to start the quarter. You don’t need to wait for a run to call a timeout and recalibrate.

Coaches value timeouts more than leads when it should be the opposite.

 

[illmatic99]

just a masterful night from dame this game.

He's bad at Timeouts and Challenges.

We’ve won games with his challenges. What are you talking about? The only one he blew was Grant’s 6th foul a few games back but he prob wouldn’t have won it.
