Where did this D come from?

Which one?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Did the sharpeyed Blazer broadcast crew notice that Jokic threw up a shot that missed rim and backboard and then caught the ball with no call? Denver guys did and even showed it in a replay.

 

[KingSpeed]

Which one?

ours

 

[OneSport3]

Interesting that Timelord is traveling with the team.

 

[Whyachi]

Henderson 8-8 FT's
the rookie is fearless tonight

 

[KingSpeed]

Wow. Nice half for Henderson against a very good team. Maybe he’s got something after all?

Maybe??? He's going to be the best PG in the league in about 5 years. And a very good team? Try, the champs!

 

[HailBlazers]

Wow. Nice half for Henderson against a very good team. Maybe he’s got something after all?

After 19 freakin years?

Well yeah you can’t write off a 19 year old PG halfway through his first season

 

[Whyachi]

hey... Portland just showed a Nuggets highlight. How generous, i thought we aren't allowed to see good basketball from opponents?

 

[Labinot41]

OKAY SCOOT. This is looking good

 

[KingSpeed]

Since when does Wes Matthews play for the Hawks??

 

[MickZagger]

Henderson 8-8 FT's
the rookie is fearless tonight

He’s been very solid at the line. Which shows he has good touch. It also looks like he’s put a little more arc on his 3.

Im not sure he’ll ever be an amazing off the bounce shooter like Lillard or Simons. He just seems too methodical. But hopefully I’m wrong.

 

[Everything Beagle]

I love wandering into a game halfway through to see Scoot has been putting up more than a point a minute again!

 

[KingSpeed]

Wemby just blocked a Zion dunk attempt

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Not getting my hopes up. If this game is close late, Joker will just start scoring and forget about getting everyone involved.

 

[KingSpeed]

Zion just scored what may be the game winner

 

[Everything Beagle]

Not getting my hopes up. If this game is close late, Joker will just start scoring and forget about getting everyone involved.

Oh yeah I'm not here to see a win, especially after the emotions of Wednesday, but it's good to see Scoot do well so far. Hope Simons gets going but I expect he'll be the most hungover after going toe-to-toe with his mentor.

 

[MickZagger]

Simons can’t hit the broad side of a barn tonight

 

[B-Roy]

Our guards are …. Guarding

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Not sure why Ayton is passing up mid range shots tonight?

 

[Everything Beagle]

Simons can’t hit the broad side of a barn tonight

I'm not surprised; I bet he gave too much on Wednesday and is feeling the effects mentally.

 

[KingSpeed]

Scoot please

 

[MickZagger]

Pull Simon’s and put in Scoot Nation

 

[MickZagger]

I'm not surprised; I bet he gave too much on Wednesday and is feeling the effects mentally.

That sounds like an excuse

 

[Everything Beagle]

That sounds like an excuse

Okay

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Ant is coming out in the second half with blinders on. He completely missed Ayton who sealed his guy and was wide open at the basket.

 

[KingSpeed]

Wow, so many passes on that play.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Ant is coming out in the second half with blinders on. He completely missed Ayton who sealed his guy and was wide open at the basket.

I can't watch the game; is Ayton still engaged or has he given up because he only has five shots?

 

[twobullz]

What happened to Camara?

 

[KingSpeed]
