Game Thread 2022-23 Game #38 - BLAZERS @ PACERS - JANUARY 6, 2023 - FRIDAY - 4:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

[Mr. Robot]

Is it good or bad that the first two off the bench are our rookies?

ideally, they would be on the bench and that would mean were really good

but them being on the floor or on the bench, it makes no difference, so might as well play them and develop them

 

[FlashWad]

Of course a double digit lead evaporates due to lazy pass turnovers without a timeout by Chauncey. A microcosm of the entire Blazers season…

Definitely having way too many stretches where he is awful. He then is good for a few games and goes back to being bad. Man is way too streaky these days.

JABARI DOING WORK

Career high first quarter

 

[B-Roy]

Calabro is becoming senile.

 

[Shaboid]

Nurks already launched three 3s. That's a great sign.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Btw you guys notice Dame been boo boo for awhile now

 

[Labinot41]

The fuck is wrong with Dame?

 

[BlazerBeav]

This all feels so familiar.

10-27 in bench scoring so far, and our star still MIA.

 

[MickZagger]

When did Lillard’s shot go broke?

 

[Mr. Robot]

nurk, contested 3-pointer isnt it

 

[BigGameDamian]

Dame is 1-6

 

[Labinot41]

seriously wtf ??

 

[BigGameDamian]

LoL….

 

[James lamphear]

When your best player 1-6 and still in you might think we are lucky.

 

[OneSport3]

Once again, Dame still hasn’t figured out how to pass out of the blitz double…

 

[Cugel]

The turnovers are just unreal. 8-0 run and no timeout.

 

[blazerfan11]

Once again, the thought goes in your head "are the blazers does dumbest team in the NBA."

 

[BlazerBeav]

10 turnovers already. Joke.

 

[B-Roy]

Chauncey can’t make his team better passers.

 

[blazerfan11]

Pretty simple we see every other team that knows how to play basketball do it in the NBA. You have a guy between the hoop and the guy who's being double teamed, he gets the ball dribbles towards the hoop and then he's got cutters to pass to. It's a 4-on-3 the other team just gave you.

 

[DDolla]

Game Over!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Look at the guards Indiana has: Halliburton, Hield, Duarte, Mathurin, Nemhard, McConnell.

 

[Cugel]

Who gives a fuck about the dunk contest?

I’ve watched enough Dame to know he has trouble making a clean pass when getting blitzed.

 

[Labinot41]

hate to admit it, but Stotts did use Dame better than Billups

 

[AldoTrapani]

I’m telling we ain’t winning…

ask @SlyPokerDog about me.. I know this team extremely well

blow it up

 

[BlazerBeav]

I feel like Dame is getting some of the most open looks he's had in years, and still not hitting anything. Maddening.

 

[THE HCP]

Nurks already launched three 3s. That's a great sign.

Hold on, I thought him shooting 3s was GOOD for our team. Standby, I’ll go find the thread.

 

[Labinot41]

good run

 

[AldoTrapani]

I was super wrong about Billups

trash ass coach. He’s just friends with the guys and that’s it
