[wizenheimer]

Favorite moment was GP2 matching up with ja with his hands behind his back.

yeah...that was hilarious...

 

[Chris Craig]

Favorite moment was GP2 matching up with ja with his hands behind his back.

Dame told him to do that after Ja kept grabbing his arm to get the foul.

Ant with an efficient shooting night. Had some critical buckets early in the 4th when Dame was sitting. Love to see it.

 

[wizenheimer]

Eubanks: 11pts, 11reb, 3ast, 1blk, 1stl...and one humongous dunk+1. He's a limited player who absolutely maximizes his impact

Simons had a great 2nd half too

 

[KingSpeed]

2023 The Year of the DAME!!! Get the man some more help!

Or take away his help? We won without starting frontcourt.

 

[DDolla]

That Eubanks Dunk… Do you think Dame will pass that if that was Nurk running?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Really? That was fun to you? You spend most of the game bitching about Ant and GPII.

Yes I was frustrated sly ok

 

[riverman]

Ant has strung together a couple of really solid games but Dame is a superfrickin'star

 

[B-Roy]

Eubanks turning into a legit night to night rotation player is not something I anticipated coming into this season. We really couldn't have signed him to a 1+1 with the second year being a team option? There's no way he had other suitors in the off-season.

 

[B-Roy]

 

[wizenheimer]

I guess he was cleared?

conspiracy rumor would say he was traded....and since it's Portland he'll be traded for somebody 6'4

 

[HailBlazers]

Tee Morant, Ja’s dad.

Nice. Who did Dame sign a jersey for?

 

[blazerfan11]

Where was Nurk?

Nurkic injured his left calf early in the first quarter and did not return. The Blazers also lost Jerami Grant in the first half and Josh Hart left in the third quarter before returning in the fourth.17

 

[OneSport3]

A rapper, Lil Boosie.

He will get better after the trade deadline

 

[BlazerBeav]

Watching this team is an exercise in insanity. Look that good tonight short handed after that lousy home stand.

[brooklynballer]

Man, imagine this team with a prime, uninjured (if there is such a thing) Greg Oden. Sigh.

 

[PCmor7]

Why do people keep posting pics of Greg Oden by himself?

This might be the best "I have @THE HCP blocked" joke ever. Hilarious.

 

[HailBlazers]

A rapper, Lil Boosie.

Figured, thanks. What a show by Dame DOLLA.

FUCKING EPIC!

 

[blazerkor]

I think there was a lot for the players to take away from this game but one big glaring lesson for Cronin.

Chauncey's philosophies are sound but need the right kind of players to execute them... Nurk isn't one of them. He really has to go. Just imagine this defense with an athletic big in the middle... doesn't have to be an elite athletic big just a competent one with far more length than Trendon. Hell, we would probably be better off starting Drew and having Trendon as his backup but we don't have to settle for that. A guy like Mo Bamba would make a huge huge difference for this team.

 

[AldoTrapani]

DAME SUCKS!

2 rebounds short of a triple double. All he cares about is scoring. Won't even try to rebound.

Dude I don’t talk shit about Dame anymore. I learned my lesson Sly. It was embarrassing but I did

But you worked so hard to be Dame's Pontius Pilate.

 

[blazerkor]

Missed a good game

Most fun game to watch this season. Had some of the moments we have all come to dread from this team or at least the lapses we hate but the guys who were able to play really battled and played the game the right way. They beat the team with the second best record in the conference and the refs. Oh and Damian Fucking Lillard!!! Love that guy!

Pilates is a hard workout, Sly.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Greg could probably teach you about dickpic selfies if you can figure out the zoom on your camera.

 

[TBpup]

Sly only knows 'Downward Dog'. And Mrs HCP likes it that way.
