This will be interesting.

If there was a game I really want to win this season, this is it!

 

[crandc]

Because of local blackout have to watch Warriors broadcast.

 

[Strenuus]

Because of local blackout have to watch Warriors broadcast.

Hold up. Aren't you in Cali?

 

[Chris Craig]

Because of local blackout have to watch Warriors broadcast.

Your not local though.

 

[crandc]

I am local so can't use NBA league pass to watch.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Biggest game of the season outside our first two IST.

Toronto and Milwaukee were big games too.

But this is the only potential win that could actually improve our draft pick. Plus I just love drinking the tears of the Warriors.

Here is what I'm looking for.
Camara bugging Draymond into a scuffle. This is exactly the kind of game Green will try to intimidate the young players.
This one might get messy. Klay seems to be playing that way recently as well.
If the Blazers bench mob comes in and does what they usually do this could be a fun game to watch.
Too bad GP2 is out.

 

[illmatic99]

Cant wait. First Blazer game i will be watching live since Covid; seats way up in the rafters but who cares. Very happy schedules aligned as I will be in SF this week.

Makes me fondly remember Joel Freeland.

 

[illmatic99]

If Ant is back, does he start? In place of Malcolm I presume?

 

[Pinwheel1]

If Ant is back, does he start? In place of Malcolm I presume?

My guess is he would not start against GS and if he did it would be next to Malcolm and Sharpe.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

My guess is he would not start against GS and if he did it would be next to Malcolm and Sharpe.

Yeah, I doubt that he'll start his first game back, but that's likely not the case for long. But given the choice, I'd rather Camara stay in the starting lineup. Assuming Scoot continues to come off the bench, would he benefit more by having Brogdon or Sharpe alongside him?

To me, if Shae's healthy (and it seems like he is) it's a relatively easy choice (once Ant's fully back). Ant/Sharpe/Camara/Grant/Ayton with Scoot/Brogdon/Thybulle/Walker the primary reserves, and Reath when additional size is necessary.

 

[B-Roy]

Ant/Brogdon/Sharpe/Camara/Ayton for the first game if Grant can't play.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Ant/Brogdon/Sharpe/Camara/Ayton for the first game if Grant can't play.

Oooh, forgot about Grant's concussion. If Ant's still "questionable", I still wouldn't start him yet, even if Grant is out. I dunno--has Scoot earned himself a chance to start another game?

 

[kjironman1]

Makes me fondly remember Joel Freeland.

Certainly a fan favorite.

 

[THE HCP]

Certainly a fan favorite.

Quality dude right there. Miss him.

 

[blazerfan11]

Simons Questionable, Grant Out, Ayton Doubtful.

 

[Blazinaway]

Simons Questionable, Grant Out, Ayton Doubtful.

Get healthy and get hurt, here we go again with the injuries.

 

[BassPlaya]

I hate the Warriors. Not Laker level hate.....buuuttttt, damned close.

 

[B-Roy]

Ant is playing. Ayton is out

 

[B-Roy]

 

[Strenuus]

I hate the Warriors. Not Laker level hate.....buuuttttt, damned close.

Take some Torodal and you'll feel right.

 

[AldoTrapani]

I still feel we should have gotten more for this guy smh

 

[cdub503]

Toumani is a daaaaawwwwwg on defense

 

[Whyachi]

Warriors stink, we're killing these jokers

 

[Whyachi]

Looney has played 214 consecutive regular season games

 

[cdub503]

Warriors stink, we're killing these jokers

they really are playing like shit haha
