Game Thread 2023-24 GAME #43 - BLAZERS @ THUNDER - JANUARY 23, 2024 - TUESDAY - 5:00 PM PST - ROOT

Scoot sure plays a lot better with Brogdon than he does with Ant

He does cover up for him a lot better. Enjoy it while it lasts.

 

[Tince]

Nobody gets mad at Anfernee. This team is built to keep him happy for another decade.

The new whipping boy

 

[Whyachi]

Blazer bench playing hard, this game is close.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Is Chauncey mad at Anfernee?

That would be refreshing.

@illmatic99 and I have been hounding this point for weeks. These minutes may as well just be forfeit.

Scoot and Brogdon is -7.8.

 

[blazerfan11]

That was a block by Scoot from behind.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Why do I fee like Duop Reath is even more fluid than he was at the beginning of the season.

Cuz he is? He was so stiff in a couple games early that I thought he could not be an NBA player.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

TIE GAME! WTF

 

[Whyachi]

8 Blazer takeaways for 17 points.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

We got Good Matisse this game, it seems

Off a full court pass by DUOP REATH.

They form a fairly tough/wide duo of guards.

 

[B-Roy]

FT defense MVP

 

[Sheldon Shape]

That speed from Scoot is something I want to keep seeing. Awesome.

 

[Whyachi]

Blazers toeing the line, 11-22 from deep

 

[blazerfan11]

Scoot and Brogdon is the Blazer Beefy Backcourt.

where do you find those stats?

 

[B-Roy]

where do you find those stats?

NBA.com has lineup stats.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

As soon as we go back away from Scoot, we'll go back down. Guarantee it.

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot is a lot more engaged on defense once he starts putting together a few plays. Not a good thing that your defensive intensity is reliant on your offensive production, but at least it shows he can play defense.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Ugh, back come Ayton, Anfernee and Grant.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Can we sell Ayton for parts?

 

[Whyachi]

Scoot's 3rd foul, nice run by the rookie

 

[Whyachi]

Portland can't miss !! 9 point Blazer lead

 

[illmatic99]

these calls for shai are egregious

I think that's mostly everyone outside of defensive specialists. That's why they preach feeding your bigs to get them going.

That was a clean steal by Scoot.

Just because its true doesn't mean it's a good trait to have.

 

[Whyachi]

4 Blazers in double figures 1st half. Not too shabby

 

[B-Roy]

SGA's first step going either direction is crazy.
