Game Thread 2023-24 Game #18 - BLAZERS @ CAVS - NOVEMBER 30, 2023 - THURSDAY - 4:00 PM PST - ROOT

Shaedon needs to force some shots with this group on the floor.

No he shouldnt. He's making perfect reads

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

The starters sucked, why are they in to save the game?

I would have just brought in Brogdon to keep them level and Camara, I didn't think Grant and Ayton deserved to be back in.

 

[Tince]

Desperate challenge by the Cavs

 

[Whyachi]

yaaaay, 2 dollar free nuggets !!

 

[blazerfan11]

NO 3's!

 

[blazerfan11]

the Blazers will be 3-1 since Scoot returned.

 

[BlazerBeav]

IDC, I love when the Blazers win games!

 

[42N8Bounce]

Whatever speech Billups gave them at halftime, I recommend he start the next game with that same speech!

 

[blazerfan11]

"The Blazers are not a competitive team." Someone just said that in the forum. (Today I believe).

 

[blazerkor]

Shae is a superstar in the making!

Multiple times...I don't know what people are watching. This is a team on the rise with a key piece returning

 

[Whyachi]

Garland bolted to the locker room. Darius is not happy getting whooped by the Blazers

 

[42N8Bounce]

Screw tanking. I like to watch this team click. That was a fun win!

 

[Tince]

The lineup of Scoot, Sharpe, Thybulle, Walker, and Reath deserve all the credit for the win.

Having said that, great decision by Billups to not ride them to the very end of the game. The finishing group did what they needed.

 

[riverman]

Hell of a road win! Sharpe had an amazing game tonight. First career double double for the young man

 

[illmatic99]

I love shaedon driving and kicking. I love how he draws doubles and gets rid of it. I love how he always makes the hit ahead pass.

These fundamentals are essential for him. This is not about this year. It's about building the foundation for a few seasons from now when Shaedon is a go to guy in the playoffs.

 

[Cugel]

Great win. Coulda made a bundle $$ betting on POR. Walker great on the glass. Scoot facilitating.

 

[Chris Craig]

Good win

 

[riverman]

Defense wore out the Cavs stars...they were all gassed in the 4th qtr

 

[James lamphear]

Keys to this win only 6 turnovers in the 2nd half. Defense was another key to there win kind exciting see a blazers team actually playing defense. Sharpe double double hell of a game for the kid. Walker big time on the boards 12.

Do you really not know what I mean by competitive? Do you think this is a playoff team?

 

[TYDame]

wow, even if we lose. They’re right there and never get blown out. Tonight another win. Great Job guys.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Two wins on the road against two really good teams.

 

[wizenheimer]

Blazers are a solid team when they shoot 40% on three's

And we give up huge leads when we go ice cold.

 

[e_blazer]

Second half comebacks like tonight’s are why I try to never post a hot take when the team is playing crappy in the first half.

 

[bemac]

Do you really not know what I mean by competitive? Do you think this is a playoff team?

With the growth in Camara, Walker, Scoot and Sharpe and the return of Ant...Easily.

And I shouldn't leave out the growth of Reath...The guy is balling

 

[FlashWad]

Sharpe easily outplayed Mitchell m
Sharpe is that guy. Those few days off have done him well.

Scoot had a great second half also.

Great to see!

 

[e_blazer]

And we give up huge leads when we go ice cold.

Yeah, that’s pretty much the way basketball goes.

 

[Natebishop3]

With the growth in Camara, Walker, Scoot and Sharpe and the return of Ant...Easily.

This year?
