Game Thread 2022-23 PRESEASON - GAME #1 - BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - OCTOBER 3, 2022 - MONDAY - 7:30 PM (PDT)

If we win this game it will be because we scored more points, it would have nothing to do with the depth of the clippers rost…. Oh why do try?

Usually the bench gets a lot minutes in preseason games. Clippers just doesn’t have the bench talent we have. We have Little and Hart. They have Covington and Powell.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Right, Fogot all abo

Because we also have Glove Jr

Right. forgot all about him.

 

[julius]

Ouch, his first game in forever. Hoping this kid gets some chances to shine. People expecting him to contribute though, might be let down.

At this point, I think they're just getting him some run in, without having him worry about shit. The touches will come eventually.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Never touched the ball.

Sharpe did touch the ball and the top of the key and then gave it to a teammate. So unselfish.

Hollinger has lost my respect. He projected Warriors to go 39-43 last season. No joke.

Not the only person around to make a horrible prediction...

Carmelo's "Defense"

Honest question for Stotts supporters

He did or his algorithm did?

This is probably discussed in 5th starter thread, but i don't see why we would play hart as SF. There are 96 minutes for guards, 34 for Lillard and 31 each for Simons and Hart.

Sharpe, Keon, and GP2 need guard minutes.

 

[James lamphear]

Expect a lot of bench this half on both teams.

 

[MickZagger]

Blazers will win this game because the Clippers have no depth.

A lot more depth than us. I just don’t see where we’re going to get scoring off the bench.

Predictions and projections are two different things.

Yep and Clips can’t hang with our reserves.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

He did or his algorithm did?

Both, I think. He said their offense was gonna suck.

Any of you want to take this one?

 

[julius]

Wow, the Clippers are disrespecting the Blazers, they're pulling their starters!



ooh wait, it's pre-season, nevermind.

Was yours a horrible prediction or projection? Which one is something to be proud of?

I want to take this opportunity to say that the look on Westbrook's face in your avatar matches the tone of a lot of your posts.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nurk is so garbage lol

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Put in Walker, Chauncey!

 

[illmatic99]

I’m rarely wrong.

 

[riverman]

Now we're cookin!

 

[julius]

Here's hoping that the game vs the Jazz isn't this sloppy.

 

[riverman]

That was Ant's first assist in the whole game

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Dame lookin good

 

[KSF-ERIC]

That was Ant's first assist in the whole game

He’s playing the CJ role now

 

[illmatic99]

dame with a ridiculous burst of speed. ooh

 

[OneSport3]

what happened to trendon?

i hope he takes eubanks' minutes

Out with injury

 

[riverman]

Josh Hart does everything well..

 

[riverman]

That's 3 fouls on Ant

 

[julius]

I know it's just 1 game, but I'm leaning towards Hart being the starter, even though his dribbling/PG skills are needed off the bench.
