Bari is a keeper. Been saying this for a while.

If he could up his 3pt%, he'd probably get a pretty big contract. He has the rebounding and the inside scoring...

I hope he doesn't improve until after he gets his next contract.

Blazers still have a 90.3% chance of winning. That means if there were 100 chances, they'd have 90.3 of them.

double T on Walker & Nesmith, too much non-basketball stuff.

 

[OneSport3]

Back2back season sweeps!

[beast blazer]

Billups must not think much of Ayton, leaving him out in crunch time.

 

[Tince]

Swept the Nets
Swept the Pacers

Detroit and Toronto, you're next on the sweep list!

Went small to an all switching lineup.

 

[beast blazer]

Great performances by two guys will probably be traded soon...

 

[B-Roy]

Jabari played 41 minutes.

 

[Whyachi]

Grant & Brogdon combine for 67

 

[wizenheimer]

Ayton 12/8/2blk

vs Turner 29/12/5blks

 

[OneSport3]

The NBA is truly about matchups. Both times we held this team significantly under their season average yet they have absolutely owned the Bucks.

i love bari man

 

[riverman]

This lineup plays much better two way ball Great win...almost ran out of gas but give Jabari the game ball! Back to back wins....haven't been able to say that in long time. Go Good Guys!

 

[blazerfan11]

Are they not allowed to review goaltending violations in the last 2 minutes without it being a challenge?

I wish that had been reviewed. The ball was falling downward outside of the cylinder, or at least the center of the ball was outside of the cylinder.

I'm not sure if it was the wrong call, but to your point, worthy of a review at the very least!

 

[Whyachi]

Pacers bench shot 16%
Blazers bench shot 80%
bye bye Indiana

Outscored by 48 points from 3 yet we still win. Has to be a first in NBA history.

or......Chauncey finally figured out that a Grant-Walker frontcourt complements each other. Maybe Grant is finally our starting SF

 

[Cugel]

Grant and Brogdon just went ISO all night and Indy couldn't stop it. Pacers could not stop the worst offense in the league. Not impressed. But as was pointed out, WTF can't MIL beat them?

 

[Tince]

@Whyachi

 

[noknobs]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[blazerkor]

If we want to win a championship now with Malcolm, Jerami, Tisse and Deandre then use all of our draft capital and young talent to get a couple of superstars/all stars in here.

Otherwise, fucking trade Jerami and Malcolm for good value to teams that want playoff wins right fucking now.
