There no balance on offense right now Dame has 14 shots the next player with 5 shots.

Cause no one else can make a shot

 

[Cugel]

shooting other than Dame is piss poor

 

[BigGameDamian]

Man imagine if we had last years version of Ant

Ant doesn’t seem to pass the ball much does he?

Dame is 8-14; the rest of the team is 6-23.

 

[julius]

They can do without that stat guy.

 

[James lamphear]

It's about getting in a rythem and if your outside shot not going taking to rak to free throw line.

 

[MickZagger]

Grant has that catch and shoot down. Doesn’t even bring it down to load up

 

[julius]

Simons is gonna have to start hitting those shots.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Fuck Ant man he’s useless

 

[Labinot41]

wake up Ant cmon

 

[julius]

I love when Grant goes up strong and dunks it.

 

[Strenuus]

Grant got it back under control.

 

[julius]

No surprise that LeBron has zero fouls.

 

[B-Roy]

Westbrook just blew a point blank layup that didn’t hit the rim

 

[Chris Craig]

No surprise that LeBron has zero fouls.

And Dame with 3

 

[Tince]

42% from the field and 12 TOs in the first half isn't a winning combo... but we're winning!

 

[wizenheimer]

the officials are doing everything they can to keep the Lakers from going 0-3

 

[MickZagger]

Westbrook just blew a point blank layup that didn’t hit the rim

He’s got a 9.41 PER

just not a good player

 

[Chris Craig]

That will get better as the season goes on. The Blazers are learning to play at a very fast pace. They will get more comfortable with ball handling at that speed, it will just take some adjustment. The shooting will come too.

 

[riverman]

Josh Hart has 10 rebounds already...

 

[James lamphear]

We lead on the board and we lead in majority of stat column. They have scored 10 points off our 11 turnovers. Hart already with 10 rebounds and Dame leading us in scoring. Defense been good so far this game.

 

[riverman]

Grant got a dozen pts in 15 minutes....that's pretty good....glad to see him finally touch the ball at the end of the half

 

[Chris Craig]

Simons is gonna have to start hitting those shots.

Yeah, not sure if all the pressure from his new contract and role is getting to his head. He needs to relax a little bit, and the shots will come.

 

[julius]

Tho I hate saying this because it puts it out there...I hope Dame doesn't pick up his 4th right at the start of the 2nd half.

I'm willing to bet that Dame gets his 4th and 5th before LeBron gets his 1st.

 

[Chris Craig]

We play well when he is involved in the offense. Part of the first half woes against Phoenix stemmed from him not getting touches.

 

[Chris Craig]

Probably. Lebron probably won't even get one called in him.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Waaaay too early brah....

He never learns that.

 

[julius]

I don't know what bugs me more. The new stat guy, or Pete Davidson.


Actually, that's easy. It's Pete Davidson.

 

[HailBlazers]

These refs are ass

Shocker
