Game Thread 2023-24 GAME #27 - BLAZERS VS WIZARDS - DECEMBER 21, 2023 - 7:00 PM PST - ROOT

[Cugel]

what a blowout

 

[Whyachi]

Holton explains this game as "Wizards aren't cooperating."

 

[beast blazer]

Wizards have gone to the line 18 times vs Blazers 9. A sign they are being more aggressive.

Wizards aren't shooting that well from 3 but are shooting 68% from inside the arch.

 

[B-Roy]

How are they beating us back on MAKES? Are these guys not embarrassed?

 

[Whyachi]

Reath just smacked the crap outta Poole

 

[Whyachi]

Gafford has 4 fouls. That's the only thing that's stopping juggernaut mode

 

[beast blazer]

I didn't know Gallinari was still in the league. That takes me back to the Roy/Oden days...

 

[MickZagger]

What’s the deal with Ish Wainwright? Is he just like the team cheerleader? He kinda bugs me to look at

 

[AldoTrapani]

Ya see why I say Ant Simons doesn’t really impact winning. It’s why he doesn’t excite me

 

[TBpup]

Even Hurd is saying how for the most part, the Blazers have lacked that intensity as of late. (He didn't specifically say, since Ant came back).

But he was also talking about how Toumani was directing the defense while the more veteran players weren't very dialed in.

 

[MickZagger]

We have a clear talent advantage in this game. Can’t say that very often. And we’re down double digits…

Yep.

Do we?

Guys that haven't been paid yet tend to have more drive. Grant, Ant, and Ayton are all pretty early in big contracts.

They should be

 

[Natebishop3]

Have we won a single game in these hideous jerseys? We should retire them.

 

[B-Roy]

Love this forward heavy lineup

 

[B-Roy]

Toumani might have broke a finger

 

[Natebishop3]

WTF?!?!!? HOW WAS THAT NOT A FOUL>!>!?!

 

[MickZagger]

Every time Hurd says ‘JG’. I think of JG Wentworth

 

[MickZagger]

Do we?

Yes

 

[Chris Craig]

The Grant who stole Christmas

 

[Chris Craig]

Yes

Doesn't look like it out there

 

[Chris Craig]

Toumani might have broke a finger

Probably

Very Blazers

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

What's wrong with Grant? Misses both free throws and can't seem to get around or shoot over Kispert...

 

[blazerkor]

We could come back and win this but it's not happening if our guys don't really lock in. They just seem disengaged.

They don't care.

 

[Whyachi]

Jer3mi !! only down 10, it's a coin flip now

 

[blazerkor]

Came out with some life!

 

[B-Roy]

Isn’t this the opening day starting lineup?
