[Strenuus]

Damn. That guy.

I honestly think if he was playing for a contract he’d be more available.

Still listed as probable per pre game show at 11:34 am

gp2 really steals money for a living

 

[BigGameDamian]

No GP today…..

 

[Strenuus]

Lol people mad at GP2 Lol I laugh

 

[OneSport3]

Incredible stats from Cory Jez on the pregame show: Dame is 10th in the entire league on defending isos and 6th in the entire league in defending PnRs. Not gonna lie, I’m shocked.

I feel like he has been working harder this year on D. He is not the weakest link.

 

[Tince]

That taped pregame interview with Josh Hart and Brooke did not give me the "I can't wait to resign in Portland" vibes. The hesitation and talk about how his role is vastly different than previous years, didn't come across like he's thrilled about it.

[Labinot41]

[Cugel]

He himself seems to be the one choosing that role.

 

[illmatic99]

so chauncey's strategy has been to put Dame/Ant/Hart on Siakam one on one?

please tell me this is not by design.

 

[Sloth]

Siakam is killing us and due to mismatches. What the hell kind of defense is this?

 

[Cugel]

Portland has no matchup for Siakim. They will probably double team and hope they dont make the kick out shots

 

[Labinot41]

Our team is full of idiots and Chauncey has no idea what he's doing on defense

 

[OneSport3]

Toronto doesn’t have anyone that can guard Nurk. They were putting Scottie Barnes on him. Feed him the ball.

we have one, but chauncey insists on him guarding point guards for some reason.

 

[Tince]

He himself seems to be the one choosing that role.

That is interesting if he is deciding what his role is.

 

[Tince]

Love seeing Hart take open 3's to keep the defense honest!

[illmatic99]

this is idiotic.

wtf are you doing chauncey
