Thinking Scoot has his best game as a Blazer today

Give this man some respect

 

[Tince]

Great start to the 3rd. Smooth wing 3 by Sharpe (setup by Brogdon) and an Ayton block on Giannis!

 

[Tince]

It’s easy to win regular season games with a top 75 guy. How many playoff wins?

I can look it up for you if you want. I think it was a lot more than the next coach had with the top 75 guy, who couldn't win a ton of regular season games with the top 75 guy either.

HELL YEAH!!!

 

[PDXFonz]

First game against Dame. He gonna torch his old team like so many other players do? Shoot 8-11 from downtown and drop 54 on us?

I give us a .000000001% chance of winning this game.

Get the freaking tomato’s ready

 

[Tince]

Camara is so pesky!

 

[B-Roy]

What the fuck is going on lmfao

Dame is not the worst. Come on.

He’s really bad at defense

 

[Labinot41]

LMFAOOOO

 

[riverman]

It's like Christmas came early this yeear

 

[Idog1976]

I was joking to my son that we would win by 40. I turn on the game and we're up 26 WTF?! Also, I suffer from EXTREME RECENCY BIAS SYNDROME or ERBS for short and moving off Lillard, who can't shoot, onto Scoot was a wise decision!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

What is happening?

 

[maxiep]

I still think we lose (we're up 81-55 as I post this), but what a performance!

 

[twobullz]

Not sure about the coaching thing.

But a defense will take a big hit when they go from the best defensive PG in the NBA in exchange for the worst.

What’s the excuse for their struggles on defense in the games Dame didn’t play? Easy to just blame him, but they still struggle with defense on the nights he doesn’t play. Might be more then just Dame.

Life is great

You can get +400 on the Milwaukee moneyline!

Here comes the free throw parade

As long as Giannis is shooting them, we might be ok.

 

[maxiep]

We've gone cold

 

[Predator]

Ayton really couldn’t post up Connaughton? Lol

 

[Tince]

We've gone cold

Scoot, the deadeye, is coming in to change that!

You lose Holiday and any defense is going to take a big hit.

They probably were better. I don’t know, I didn’t look it up.

 

[OneSport3]

Jerami Grant really makes Jaylen Brown look like Kyrie Irving with the handles.

 

[blazerfan11]

How was that not a foul? Ayton was completely undercut.

 

[MickZagger]

They want to take Lillard to the kitchen every time down.

That’s a Billups call

they’re worse defensively without Damian
