Game Thread 2023-24 GAME #73 - BLAZERS @ HAWKS - MARCH 27, 2025 - WEDNESDAY - 4:30 PM PST - ROOT

Rupert block, Banton dunk. Nice highlights for the Blazers 8th straight loss
 
I'd be ecstatic if Scoot had Banton's creation abilities.
 
Minaya's birthday was yesterday, he can buy beer for the teenagers now.
 
Scoot takes a hotdog shot. Rupert takes a bad angle 2-pointer, then Banton caps it off with a really stupid 3-point attempt.

It's contagious.
 
Why don’t we ever get excited or constantly talk about Banton? But waste our time with scoot
 
Hawks up 18 with a minute left. Coach Billups clears the bench to replace the bench
 
less that 10 games left...unless Portland makes the play-in

Scoot is better. Stats are lying. Anyone who watches the Blazers are lying. Dalano is this year's Kevin Knox. Cut him this summer. Jody Allen needs money.
 
bad grammar is lying
sorry, i watched that Burkhardt guy blaming Blazer fans for Portland's losing season. Shortly afterwards he tried ripping into Banton's efforts, and told us Dalano is the fat kid in the slow lane. Banton is not worth our time. That 620am show is becoming bass akwards Blazer presention
 
The Blazers could field an all-foreign-born starting unit:

The Canadian backcourt of Banton and Sharpe.
The French-speaking Forwards Rupert and Camara.
And Bahamian center Deandre Ayton (or Australian Duop Reath).

Wonder if there has ever been an all-foreigner starting five in the NBA?
 
Spurs beat the Jazz. Wemby's team is only 3 games behind the Blazers, and SAS owns the tiebreaker

Anything is possible !!

tiebreaker is meaningless in the lottery. ties are handled with a coin toss here.
 
Can’t wait to see Dalano and Shaedon with Scoot

I think in the lotto you actually split the odds so if the Spurs climbed above the Hornets and into a tie with us at 4/5 then both teams would have equal odds at every pick in the top 4. If neither team ended up in the top 4 then like any tie in the draft the position would then be decided by a coin toss like you said.

Edit: The crazy part is with the Hornets' win tonight if we lose out and yeah that does mean out tanking the Hornets and Wizards then we will be tied with them unless they fuck up and win another one. If the Spurs win another two and we lose out we might be in a three way tie in the lotto with the Spurs and Hornets, splitting the odds that the 3, 4 and 5 spots get equally three ways. Interesting time for lotto odds.

Gotta keep our fingers crossed that we lose out, the Hornets pick up wins against us and another team (maybe the Celtics sitting guys in the second to last game of the season with home court locked up) and the Spurs winning three more which seems unlikely... then we'd have 3rd by ourselves which is the same as having the worst record in the league.

I like what I am seeing from Banton and Scoot seems to have regressed, yeah here's been hurt but has been back for long enough not to look this bad. Her's some Banton highlights
