Game Thread 2022-23 Game #6 - BLAZERS VS ROCKETS - OCTOBER 28, 2022 - FRIDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

[MickZagger]

Jabari Smith looks so skinny

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

How is that not a foul on Hart’s drive?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

A perfect time to dunk, nurk

 

[BigGameDamian]

This Mark Davis character must be blind.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

These refs ain’t got no Hart!!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Is Sharpe that good?

i mean, what, 3 or 4 of his shots were dunks….

But he makes those look easy. If everyone could do it, they would.

 

[oldmangrouch]

not a single person is saying anything negative about Sharpe tonight….

Got to admit, so far this season the kid has been a nice surprise. I am shocked, but he looks like he may be ready to be a valuable member of the rotation. I never would have predicted that. (just watch, now that I am feeling some optimism about him, he will crash and burn!)

 

[HailBlazers]

Rim Shaed-y

Pullin rbs off the rim

 

[Idog1976]

Nurkic must have the least dunks of a 7footer in NBA history I've never seen someone so afraid of dunking. For fuck's sake I think Andre Miller might have dunked it more often in his last season with us. It's so fucking irritating. If I was 7 foot tall I would have broken my Ulna's at least 17 times due to viciously dunking every fucking chance I got. GOD DAMN it makes me FURIOUS!

 

[B-Roy]

Chauncey takes out Nurk in 3 mins for being a pouty bitch.

 

[Idog1976]

Chauncey takes out Nurk in 3 mins for being a pouty bitch.

Presumably he took out Sharpe to explain to Nurk what a DUNK IS!

the kid is a baller. I definitely expect some growing pains but he’s going to be a good one.

 

[Hoopguru]

Nothing rattles him he gets the rim, he’s steady & ready, he’s Rim Shaed-y

 

[Natebishop3]

Grant sure isn't doing much tonight.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Grant sure isn't doing much tonight.

right on cue, he blows you a kiss and hits a big three

 

[B-Roy]

I can’t imagine how good this team would be with a center that could finish.

 

[OneSport3]

What a pass by Ant!

 

[Idog1976]

Why is Nurk so terribly afraid of dunking the damn ball. WHY?!?!?!?!

 

[Cugel]

Nurk just refuses to dunk...

 

[Idog1976]

I can’t imagine how good this team would be with a center that could finish.

He's gotta be the most dunk averse 7 footer in history it's UNREAL!

 

[Idog1976]

Nurk: "In the Old Country, a Dunk killed my Grandfather and I made a sacred oath to never dunk the ball no matter how easy it might be.".

 

[HailBlazers]

Grant sure isn't doing much tonight.

Reverse jinx.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Grant!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I feel like there’s been an unusual number of uncalled blatant travels tonight.

Even for the NBA…

 

[julius]

Haven't done much with Shaedon in this half.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Haven't done much with Shaedon in this half.

He’s being traded for two second rounders so he’s been pulled from the game.

 

[illmatic99]

missed the start of the half. why did shaedon get the early benching?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Lakers are 0-5

We're gonna be 5-1

Love it

 

[Idog1976]

Haven't done much with Shaedon in this half.

Yeah it's bizarre.

 

[wizenheimer]

I try not to get pissed about how softly Nurk goes up around the rim....but damn

and geeeezuz...was I the only one thinking 'shut the fuck up about wedgies'...? It was so forced and not funny...amateur hour
