Game Thread 2022-23 Game #41 - BLAZERS VS CAVALIERS - JANUARY 12, 2023 - THURSDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

[Tince]

Are we going to hear some boos tonight?

The home fans boo in nearly every NBA game.

 

[OneSport3]

At least put your body on Allen or Mobley so they can’t jump so easily on the lobs.

 

[B-Roy]

I’m pretty convinced Ant should not be a full time SG

 

[calvin natt]

If you let NBA guards penetrate at Will bad things happen especially when the other team has two bigs who can jump and finish

 

[Strenuus]

Look at Dame when he starts aggressive

So is he not old now? Pick a lane.

 

[Tince]

I’m pretty convinced Ant should not be a full time SG

He's certainly not a PG in my eyes.

 

[Freshtown]

They should rest Dame the rest of the night. He looks hurt.

 

[blazerkor]

Our guards are actually shooting it well which seems to be the only way we can win but this is against a team that is really really good so far this season.

 

[blazerkor]

He's certainly not a PG in my eyes.

He's a small scoring guard that needs to be playing next to a big defensive minded guard. Reminds me of two other guys.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Billups better call a time out and fix the the problem with the lobs?

I'm trying to figure this out. I think it's related to why Billups puts Grant guarding a guard and then Lillar or Simons guards whoever is considered weak offensively. Why does he do this? 1. Grant is not really big and strong enough to be a PF. 2. Simons (Lillard?) is a bad defender. The solution is to trade Simons for someone like Siakam, whatever it takes.

 

[B-Roy]

He's certainly not a PG in my eyes.

Gives up too much defensively at the 2

 

[THE HCP]

Are we going to hear some boos tonight?

If you continue to post.

 

[Tince]

Kevin Love would not be a positive addition to this roster.

 

[Tince]

Gives up too much defensively at the 2

Agreed... doesn't have the handles or vision offensively to play the 1.

 

[Tince]

There's a ton to like about this Cleveland roster.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Dame can’t hit 3s for shit this year and also FTs. He’s about to dip below 35% from 3

 

[B-Roy]

Holy shit the turnovers

 

[twobullz]

I like our letter O more then there letter O

 

[Mr. Robot]

already 6 turnovers

 

[twobullz]

The Blazers have come up empty on at least 2 fast breaks so far. Why does this not happen to their opponents

 

[Chris Craig]

Leading after 1.

just a slump. It happens. Ft% and 3pt% are not things that decline at age 32 for elite shooters.

 

[Chris Craig]

The Blazers have come up empty on at least 2 fast breaks so far. Why does this not happen to their opponents

Because the Blazers aren't allowed to hack their opponents.

 

[Tince]

Got to be thrilled to be up 5 after 1!

 

[AldoTrapani]

I guess

 

[B-Roy]

The blazers are trying to turn it over, I’m convinced

 

[Tince]

The blazers are trying to turn it over, I’m convinced

On the brightside, folks are getting the ball movement they always wanted!

 

[OneSport3]

Not only are they unable to pass the ball, now they are unable to catch the ball.

 

[B-Roy]

Gary is a heck of a defender. Honestly kind of interested to see what it would be like with him starting over Ant

 

[Chris Craig]

Up double digits!
