Game Thread 2023-24 GAME #4 - BLAZERS @ RAPTORS - MONDAY - OCTOBER 30, 2023 - 4:30 PM PST - ROOT

DA is pretty good. He'd be better with someone that could set him up consistently.

That should be part of the offense. Not sure why Chauncey hasn't implemented that.

 

[Whyachi]

It's pin drop silent in Canada. They don't like watching their team get tromped by Portland

 

[B-Roy]

Ayton just has so much untapped potential. There's got to be a coach that could do for him what Isiah Thomas did for Jermaine O'Neal

He'd be pretty sick with Dame. And we could have had that.....

 

[riverman]

Feed the big man...Ayton has his double double...10-15

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Does Grant realize that would have been a lot easier if he had just made the short pass to Ayton instead of Ayton having to hunt the rebound and then put it in?

 

[KingSpeed]

that stat guy the broadcast has it terrible.

lol..."potential assists"...yeah, that's about as useless a gauge as there is....but let's spend 30 seconds babbling about it then saying Scoot is averaging 5 assists...when he's averaging 3

Scoot is playing better tonight though. Still shooting poorly from the arc

He said Kawhi is averaging 5 assists.

 

[B-Roy]

That should be part of the offense. Not sure why Chauncey hasn't implemented that.

He's a finisher. He's not someone you throw the ball to and have him work. The Blazers currently don't have anyone that can set him up properly.

DA is pretty good. He'd be better with someone that could set him up consistently.

2nd best player on the team, Billups needs to run more actions for him. Very soft scoring touch for his size.

Also..fucking Grant thinks he's Paul George wtf was that last attempt?? Lmao

 

[Ripcity4life77]

and the problem in using Ayton that way is meaning he has double digit rebounds and the Blazers have a lead -- HOW DARE BILLUPS !!!

Are some of you high or something and maybe right now that will help Ayton in the long run

I may have my issues with Billups but if this helps Ayton in the long run and such then I am good with it.

 

[blazerfan11]

Grant on the fast break , I don’t mind that. He’s tough to guard running to the hoop full-court.

 

[Idog1976]

Hey credit to Grant 6 boards this game. Respectable, get 2-4 more!

 

[blazerfan11]

What a pass by Scoot.

 

[B-Roy]

I love Toumani

 

[Predator]

Don’t look now but Scoot well on his way to his first double double!

 

[beast blazer]

Chauncy probably wants Ayton to play like Ben Wallace.

 

[Quatro44]

Uh oh, the 0-82 perfect season is in jeopardy.

 

[Chris Craig]

What a Dick

 

[Predator]

Toumani looks kinda like Pippen with the #33 and the forearm band lol

 

[Whyachi]

eat that Dick !!

... ok... that didn't sound right

 

[Idog1976]

I was about to rage at Brogdon missing Shae open, but then he hit the runner.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Ya Brogs is a ball hog --- I swear some of ya really need to learn the game.

 

[blazerfan11]

Get that outa here Dick!

 

[Idog1976]

What a block by Walker!

 

[B-Roy]

I really hope Walker and Camara are starting after the trade deadline.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

DICKBLOCKED

 

[Tince]

 

[OR-84]

Jabari!!!

 

[beast blazer]

We're one of those teams, that no one can believe they lost to a home.

 

[n0cturne]

That last dime to Grant by Scoot was sick. He's definitely flashed more today no doubt about it.

 

[Quatro44]

I see that Dick got some penetration
