Game Thread 2022-23 Game #36 - BLAZERS VS PISTONS - JANUARY 2, 2023 - MONDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

[Fairly-Hard]

Walker! Nice.

 

[julius]

not gonna lie, it's a bit frustrating to see Mitchell, Luka, Jokic, Embiid etc all going crazy and Dame declining

Yeah, so weird that a guy in his 11th year is "declining" compared to guys who are all between 4 and 9 years younger than him.

Eubanks is super solid!

Nurk is either injured still or he’s hearing trade chatter — he looks like Vlad Stepania out there

 

[blazerkor]

Nice to see us handle a bad team like we're a good team.

 

[riverman]

Donovan Mitchel scored 71 tonight.....that's incredible

 

[riverman]

Grant could get another 40 piece tonight

I think it's probably more than he's sick and sapped of energy.

 

[B-Roy]

Trendon Watford sucks

It is ridiculous how much tighter they call fouls on rookies versus veterans. Sharpe had 3 fouls that were very ticky-tack, while vets can put their hands all over you. A foul may or not be a foul depending on who you are and what time of the game it is. Much too inconsistant.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

It’s a 25 point game. Not sure why the review?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

I notice Dame is feeding him.

 

[wizenheimer]

Donovan Mitchel scored 71 tonight.....that's incredible

he was 2 rebounds away from a triple double as well

 

[AldoTrapani]

I was right again

 

[AldoTrapani]

Fuck just 1 pick away

 

[Cugel]

Dame had 2 blocks, 4 steals, 1o assists...great game.

 

[PCmor7]

Oh, good grief, that last 4 minutes took forever.

Anyway, great performance tonight, especially the last 30 minutes.

I think we now can say this is an elite team again heading for the NBA Finals ....

OK, now that GPII has actually played, I can't call him a negative asset anymore. Looks like he can be a positive contributor.

 

[riverman]

Best offensive game in a while...good win! Go Blazers! GPII is for real!

 

[OneSport3]

22 points and down 5 playing at home against the Pistons. lol

Embarrassing that we could only win by 29 points. Should of beat them by 30+.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Eubanks is developing into a starting quality center.

Smart and energetic

Damn shame he didn't play last game and net us a positive road record.

Would've if not for that phantom illegal screen call on Nurk.

Missed every second -- just want to know, did anyone get hurt/re-injured?

I was really in the mood for a nice relaxing 30 pt win and these loosers can only win by 29. Blow this shit up.

I like new offense where we dunk over and over again. We should run that more.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Passed Phoenix in standings finally and no it’s NOT December!

 

[riverman]

Maybe the alley oop is actually back in Portland!

 

[Phatguysrule]

Missing some options in the poll...

 

[THE HCP]

Keeping my 40 win prediction in my grasp.

You hurt my feelings when you flagged my post.
