Game Thread 2022-23 Game #9 BLAZERS @ SUNS - NOVEMBER 5, 2022 - SATURDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT) ROOT

Many missed FT's. Not a good sign.

 

[MickZagger]

They might win a lot of games (and easily more than the Blazers) but Chris Paul is known for 2 things. Being a punk, and choking in the playoffs.

Throw in their pretty so-so chemistry, and they'll probably under perform come playoff time.

Chris Paul is a playoff choke artist

Im starting to think us winning isn’t an aberration.

 

[MickZagger]

I mean who really in their heart of hearts had us winning this game?

It’s fine. It’s whatever.

 

[Chris Craig]

Pretty sad they need to keep Booker in up 20+

 

[illmatic99]

better not see a single vet in the fourth

I was thinking that also. They are not letting the Blazers back in this game. No way.

You remember when that classless organization force fed him 70 pts?

Dude is so overhyped.

Yeah, we still have the fourth, but we already punked them and won the season series. This game is inconsequential. The Suns are energized by desperation and the Blazers are tired from last night.

Time to let the summer league team play ball.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Lots of minutes for Walker and Watford.

Oh, I didn't mean that Portland will win like 30 fewer games than the Suns, but they're a veteran team and aren't incorporating many new players into the team.

The Blazers are clearly the inexperienced (and under-manned) team in tonights game, and it being a B2B (seriously, who does B2B with home games??) isn't helping.

On to Miami and get some revenge.

I dont like it when Dame (etc) play when Portland is up, it opens the door for injuries.

 

[MickZagger]

Last year at this time if we were down 25 in the 4th I’d just turn the channel. Now I’m still glued. Ha

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

nobody is making any cuts.

 

[MickZagger]

We got inspector gadget on the bench squad!

 

[MickZagger]

I knew Suns would be pissed after last night. They’re a good team and we didn’t have half our scoring punch per game in that one.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I blame @Bingo Bango for not making another jinx thread.

 

[BankTeller]

Suns commentary both infuriates me and makes makes me laugh.

So much complaining about calls.

Brown III dunks.

The first guy: “there goes Watford with the dunk”

The other guy: “that was Brown II”

Pitiful lol.

 

[Chris Craig]

Can't stand when a team is up big and a player gets a foul called on them and complains.

They have been getting all the calls tonight WTF!

 

[illmatic99]

good to get watford some reps

 

[Fairly-Hard]

He’s pretty rusty at this point.

 

[riverman]

Butt ugly! Never in this game at all...Suns came to kick butt. Get the next one! Go Blazers!

 

[crandc]

Who are those guys and what have they done with the Portland Trail Blazers?

 

[Chris Craig]

Rest tomorrow and get the next one

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Well, I can’t argue with 6-3. Let’s get 3 of the next 4 and I’m happy.

 

[Mr. Robot]

dark times are upon us, we suck again

 

[Chris Craig]

OMG we are fourth in the west, it's the end of the world.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Suns are still trash.
