What’s the team franchise record for 3’s? I’d assume we’re close to it tonight

I think it's 23... so kinda close. Dame and Trent had 18 combined.

Heading in the right direction! Go Blazers! Keep the win streak alive!

 

[illmatic99]

i like easy wins.

more please

 

[riverman]

Watford always surprises me with his shooting range. He's really better at it these days

23. Blazers made 21 tonight.

 

[FlashWad]

Good blazers win against a beat up mediocre wolves team. Nice to have some easy wins. Hope Dame is ok.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I fucking love Jerami Grant. My favorite forward since LMA and honestly since Sheed and Buck.

Hes great but he’s going to be expensive

 

[riverman]

Shoutout to the coaching staff and again...Chauncey didn't need to use a challenge...imagine that ...well managed games

 

[AldoTrapani]

I didn't want to leave the action but that Sharpe reverse was absolutely FILTHY!

Hopefully he isn’t Gerald Green just all dunks

It the one thing I miss tonight: the post-game outrage that he didn't use his challenge on a 50/50 call in the 3rd quarter. Surely we should be upset that Eubanks' pass out-of-bounds in the last minute of the 3rd wasn't challenged when it was clearly tipped!

 

[wizenheimer]

that's Aldo being positive

legit was gonna say at least he was being positive for once but then i re read the sharpe comment.....

Well, Dame passed Chris Mullin at #82, but didn't quite overtake Lou Hudson for the #81 spot.



Dame only needs 7 points to overtake Lou Hudson at #81, 16 points to overtake Calvin Murphy at #80, and 22 points to overtake World B Free at #79. The next game against the Spurs on Wednesday, we could see Dame climb 3 more spots.

I've been reading the posts the last three games. I pleaded with Aldo to say one nice thing during the Denver game. Unless I missed it, I didn't see one. Then Saturday night and again tonight, all negative. He did try and say something nice about Jerami until he added the, "but he's going to be expensive" comment at the end. Aldo my man must be a real treat to hang around. I'm a pretty pessimistic guy but Aldo makes me seem like a glass half full kinda guy. Another challenge Aldo. Let's see if you can say a nice thing or two when the team is in San Antonio.

He did commend the team's performance, in his Aldo way.

Wow this is the performance I expected on Saturday! Minnesota is garbage it shouldn’t be hard

 

[Strenuus]

Good win.

Standings don't matter yet since its only December, but good win.

 

[Danimal1979]

True. But he ended with the, "it shouldn't be hard."

 

[DDolla]

Next 6 games 4-2 since we are not beating Dallas and Denver

 

[PtldPlatypus]

True. But he ended with the, "it shouldn't be hard."

You acknowledge Aldo's positive-ish posts the same way Aldo praises the team-- always with a caveat.

How 'bout this one?

Wooow Dame is killing

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Change his number quick!!!

I propose Outlaw's #25. Nobody ever accused that dude of over-thinking the game.

 

[BankTeller]

Hopefully he isn’t Gerald Green just all dunks

Com’on man…he’s shown us WAY more than just his dunking ability already, and it’s been only how many games into his rookie year now?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Please Please win easy tonight. I’m begging

nice

Dame is playing like he wants to sit the 4th qtr tonight

yep

Good win.

Standings don't matter yet since its only December, but good win.

Dude, I might have to put you ignore. It’s getting tired, like a broken record, like you’re trying to piss me off. If I stop responding to you, you’ll know why.

 

[UKBlazer]

Good win that, finally a blowout, which has been coming for a while.

Timberwolves look a poor team but you can only beat what's in front of you and we know B2B's can be tricky.

Hart finding his shot and Winslow getting shots around the rim is a big positive. Lillard/Winslow on the floor together looks really handy imo.

Nice to see Sharpe get some reps too!

 

[blazerkor]

Next 6 games 4-2 since we are not beating Dallas and Denver

I think we'll take both of those games.

 

[Eastoff]

Of Damian's 11 made 3s, I counted 5 or 6 were catch and shoot. Good to see more proof he doesn't need to have the ball in his hand.

I just finally put that dude on ignore. It works. It really does. The only poster i have ever put on ignore.

Ha Ha Ha! True. Very true.

 

[MickZagger]

I don’t understand this line of thinking. The games matter throughout the year. Why would we want to dig out of a hole late in the year?

This one was important for sure. Winnable game on the home court against a divisional opponent before a long road trip. This win was taking care of business.

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

Great win!! Important win to get the roll going before we hit the road.

DAME!!!!!……..
