Game Thread 2022-23 Game #34 - BLAZERS VS HORNETS - DECEMBER 26, 2022 - MONDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

[blazerkor]

He always seems to hesitate when getting the ball.

Yeah he passes up a lot of opportunities to score in the set offense but will try to score against three defenders on the break and he's pretty effective at it.

 

[illmatic99]

watford really not doing anything

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurkic 4 of 4 from three!!!

 

[riverman]

Nurk is turning into Durk or Nirk

True

 

[riverman]

FEED THE BEAST!

 

[BigGameDamian]

Sharpe only gets 6 minutes?

 

[illmatic99]

need a ju-suf-nur-kic chant tonight

 

[blazerkor]

Nurk is beasting tonight and hitting those threes. It's really nice to see.

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurk is turning into Durk or Nirk

Yeah, gonna have to change his name to Jusuf Nurkwitzki

 

[blazerkor]

Sharpe only gets 6 minutes?

Yeah and that's with Justise out.

 

[wizenheimer]

lot of time left...9 point lead isn't safe

 

[illmatic99]

i hope chauncey runs some pick and pops for nurk from now on. could open up soooo much for dame/ant inside if defenses have to worry about nurk from 25 feet

 

[MickZagger]

Much better defense in the 2nd half

 

[Chris Craig]

lot of time left...9 point lead isn't safe

Feels good though.

 

[illmatic99]

energy in the 2nd half is night and day

 

[blazerkor]

If we can play with this level of energy while Dame is hitting his shots we will be really really hard to beat.

 

[wizenheimer]

turns out Jerami Grant is a much better player than I was thinking he was about 4 months ago

 

[BlazerBeav]

What bullshit. Kennedy let them look at iPad reviews before giving us the ball to inbound.

 

[AldoTrapani]

You spamming this is getting about as annoying as the kind of spamming @AldoTrapani does. Just sayin'.

How so? Just because I call out a bad team??

 

[wizenheimer]

who the fuck decided to show tweets while the game was going?

 

[Chris Craig]

5 for 5!!!!

 

[Fairly-Hard]

They played much better in the second half.
I can appreciate that.
Go Blazers!

 

[illmatic99]

clunky finish

 

[Cugel]

Grant and Nurk with huge nights. Hart again a monster on the boards.

 

[illmatic99]

what is this ... ceremony? is there a link for it?

 

[riverman]

Nurk was amazing...Grant was amazing...good to get a home win and stop the bleeding. Go good guys!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

18-16. We move past Utah. Now we watch other teams play for 3 days. Friday should be a tough one. They are dominant at home no matter who plays. Win that game and we can get on a run against middle of the road teams. 24-16 would be nice.

 

[Chris Craig]

Glad to see a win again.

Nurk was MVP tonight.

 

[Strenuus]

Imagine being worried we would lose this game lmao. It was never in question at any point.
