Game Thread 2023-24 Game #1 - BLAZERS @ CLIPPERS - OCTOBER 25, 2023 - WEDNESDAY - 7:30 PM PST - ROOT

[BigGameDamian]

It’s going to be a rough season.

 

[maxiep]

Williams has great defensive anticipation

 

[Natebishop3]

Did we draft scoot to play SG? Stop letting Simons play pg Jesus

Yeah pretty much.

 

[illmatic99]

everyone take a DEEEEEEEEP breadth, unreal, sit back watch and lets give these guys some time to learn to play together - if you have high expectations then that's your issue. Lets see if they develop as the season progresses and get better, we are not going to win very much

it's not "everyone."

 

[Predator]

You can run off makes.

Do you have any idea how hard that actually is? If your plan is to run off of makes, you’re not gonna be a fast paced offense … unless it’s designed to be 7 seconds or less.

 

[Blazinaway]

Yea Scoot isn’t nowhere what scouts were hyping him up as smh

yeah he's having a rough 1st game at 19. how bout lightening up a bit and give him some space and time

 

[TBpup]

Now watching with ice cream to cope.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Scoot trying to make Charlotte fans feel better

 

[maxiep]

Scoot is learning seams at this level are smaller, gaps close more quickly, players cover more ground, etc. He'll figure it out.

 

[blazerkor]

People in here acting like they expected us to be good this season. We’re going to have one of the three worst records in the league anything more will be surprising and if that surprise isn’t the playoffs, I’d rather it go as expected.

 

[illmatic99]

You guys are completely misunderstanding.

I don't expect us to win. I don't expect us to play that well.

I want to see SOME kind of offensive plan. Some kind of motion. Sets. Up tempo. I don't care if we miss shots. I want to see growth. I'm not judging the players. I'm mostly judging the coach.

what growth are you expecting to see in the first half of the first game?

 

[noknobs]

This Blazer broadcast is as embarrassing as the game itself.

 

[KingSpeed]

This season living on East Coast Time is going to be a mercy.

Yeah it’s too fucking late now that I have a job.

 

[EGame]

well.. at least sharpe still looks good

 

[Natebishop3]

I can't wait until RW retires. I just don't like the guy.

 

[Natebishop3]

what growth are you expecting to see in the first half of the first game?

In a world where preseason doesn't exist...

 

[LayneStaley]

Surprised no burn at all for Walker.

 

[Chris Craig]

I can't wait until RW retires. I just don't like the guy.

Dude is an asshole

 

[blazerkor]

Scoot is terrible

This shit is so typically you. Scoot is 19 and it’s his first game if you expected more from him that’s you being a terrible fan.

 

[bxb]

interested to see how Scoota responds in the 2nd half..

 

[KingSpeed]

Sharpe is for real

 

[TBpup]

People in here acting like they expected us to be good this season. We’re going to have one of the three worst records in the league anything more will be surprising and if that surprise isn’t the playoffs, I’d rather it go as expected.

Who was expecting that?

 

[Idog1976]

Highlights, Ant can still shoot. Sharpe looks REALLY good, and Rob Will looks great!

 

[Blazinaway]

Scoot is terrible

why are you dogging him so much, I don't get it

 

[KingSpeed]

Surprised no burn at all for Walker.

It’s shocking

 

[maxiep]

Grant does not look like he's ready.

 

[Idog1976]

I hate the % thing above players heads it is meaningless, and distracting.

 

[TBpup]

Grant does not look like he's ready.

Spent the summer at fashion shows.

 

[LayneStaley]

Camara and Rob might be the best assets we acquired.

 

[TBpup]

An actual PnR.....Shae to RobWill3 results in a dunk.
