Hope somebody else beside Lillard will start guarding Murray.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Dunk that Nurk!

 

[wizenheimer]

Hope somebody else beside Lillard will start guarding Murray.

Dame has been guarding Porter and KCP

 

[Chris Craig]

Simons has been guarding him.

 

[Tince]

Helluva defensive possession by Nurk!

 

[Tince]

Denver on 160+ pace.

 

[illmatic99]

our pace is too fast right now against this team.

need to slow it down. we have no chance of defending if we get into a fastbreak game with them

 

[blazerfan11]

Not much room for dumb basketball when you're playing Denver.

 

[Chris Craig]

Get your shit together Chauncey

 

[DDolla]

Dame going for 40 again and another lost

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Dame has been guarding Porter and KCP

not for their first three possessions; I may be old but am not blind.

 

[blazerfan11]

The nuggets are second to worst team defending the hoop, so what do the Blazers do? Dame takes an unnecessarily long three-point shot, followed by Hart shooting from the corner. Instead of Jeremi Grant, taking it to the rack which has been successful.

Bruce Brown’s the type of player who would suck with the Blazers. But has a good role with the Nuggets

we supposedly wanted either him or GP2. he chose DEN over us this summer and we elected for Payton

 

[MickZagger]

More ball movement please

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Simons has been guarding him.

Maybe my stream is ahead of yours. not behind....

Ugh

 

[wizenheimer]

63% vs 39% on FG's

 

[OneSport3]

David Adelman and I were teammates in 4th grade! His older brother RJ (Rest in Peace), was my high school coach sophomore year.

 

[blazerfan11]

More ball movement please

More ball, movement and more attacking the hoop against the team with the 29th please defense at the hoop

 

[illmatic99]

wow

nice play

 

[blazerfan11]

Why do the blazers not run alleyoops for Shaedon Sharpe all night long? We see one a game at most.

 

[illmatic99]

we gonna all ignore the fact that these assholes straight up lied on their pregame injury report?

both murray and hyland playing?

 

[blazerfan11]

I bet that will be the only alley-oop to Sharpe for the rest of the game.

Ugh

I'm confused. You're bummed we didn't get a guy you said would suck with the Blazers?

 

[illmatic99]

cancar too?

lol.

injury report my ass.

I hate the Nuggets.

 

[Cugel]

how is that a foul on Shae? Longest NBA possession.

 

[Tince]

Unlike the previous matchups, we need to dominate the non-Jokic minutes!

 

[blazerfan11]

Why the HELL do the Blazers not run Sharpe to the hoop when everyone is just standing around??
Throw the ball up near the hoop and he's going to get it or get fouled.

Definitely better than just standing at the 3-point line.
