[Cugel]

pretty disappointing night. almost down by 20

 

[blazerkor]

waiting for the geniuses on this forum to blame this on nurk

Nurk's fault for not showing up.

"They're just getting line drives to the basket."

"They're just getting line drives to the basket." Raps announcers

they do every night. we have a legit rim protector normally that gets shit on by idiots in this place.

 

[Tince]

That early timeout didn't seem to help anything.

 

[Driew]

Did Sharpe cut his hair?!

 

[DDolla]

Oh well… back to Lakers vs Celtics game. This one is Over

Yeah, until the trade deadline has come and gone, I have a reason to take solace in our struggles hoping Joe is realizing more and more just how important big changes are... other than that, yeah this fucking sucks.

That early timeout didn't seem to help anything.

which doesn’t mean the timeout was a bad idea - just that the coach using it has no answers.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

No Nurk is a blessing and Little has been better than Hart lately

Spoken like one of the best Blazers fans ever... have fun maybe you'll start following one of those two teams and stay away.

 

[TBpup]

What the unholy hell is with these horrific starts? This is purely unacceptable. No trade is fixing this mess.

 

[beast blazer]

Cronin should get another 6'2 chucker to start at sg.

 

[illmatic99]

Fire this coach. Game planning is nonexistent.

we have our one legit long defender guarding the point guard while switching ant onto their center.

this is by design

 

[blazerkor]

Down by more than 20 in the first... shit!

 

[Cugel]

yeah weird to start a lot of games with big deficits. shooting themselves in the foot.

 

[Driew]

Looks like Sharpe is rocking the Hart type braids lol

#agedlikemilk

oh I still thought we would lose. Don’t get it twisted. I’m just saying no Nurk doesn’t really make a difference

 

[TBpup]

Three Toronto players are +23 in 8 minutes. #pathetic

 

[MickZagger]

right

smh

Dude sucks. Not sure what you see in him

 

[illmatic99]

Dude sucks. Not sure what you see in him

he's an average starting center who is a terrible finisher but an elite rebounder while being adequate on defense.

eubanks is a borderline backup who might not be in the NBA next year.

missing nurk hurts us. this is unequivocal.

 

[julius]

Did Sharpe cut his hair?!

Looks like it's just styled differently. He looks...taller.

 

[blazerkor]

Lately Dame can't get a fucking call unless it's a borderline flagrant.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Who is that third guy out there with a headband, not Payton or Grant?

 

[OneSport3]

Toronto is being SUPER, SUPER aggressive denying passing lanes yet I don’t see any back cuts to take advantage of it. GTJ started off the game face guarding Ant.

 

[Driew]

Yeah looks like he's rocking the Hart type braids lol.

Sharpe lol

 

[illmatic99]

no size.

 

[julius]

So many shots that should've gone in...

Something is off with the mojo.

 

[TBpup]

no size.

This is one of those nights you let Badji at least try Doesn't look like it could be much worse.
