Game Thread 2023-24 GAME #81 - BLAZERS VS ROCKETS - APRIL 12, 2024 - FRIDAY - 7:00 PM PST - ROOT

didn't see the game...looking at box score it appears Scoot played well and Banton had no shame about chucking

Ayton and Walker with limited minutes...what was that about?

Spurs and Blazers tied for 4th. Blazers final is a road game against the Kings who will be very motivated to win. Spurs last game a home game against the lowly Pistons. Blazers seem like close to a lock for 4th. Probably won't matter because of San Antonio's stinking lottery luck
Ayton stepped out in 3rd (back). Walker out at halftime (knee, i think)

Banton was shooting like the clock was running low. Dribble dribble chuck.

It was an exciting loss for fan appreciation night. Much better then the previous 2 year's and 50 point losses. Brooke Olzendam had lots of fun. Terry Porter was in the house! He thinks the Blazers rebuild looks great.
 
What's funny is that I predicted a Spurs win thinking the Nuggets wouldn't play their top guys.
The Spurs are going to beat the Pistons, we will lose to the Kings and despite the fact that we easily could have had the 3rd spot in the lotto, I'm pretty sure we're going to end up in the 4th spot all by ourselves.

3 and 4 is irrelevant right? They both have the same odds at #1.

No, 3 has equal odds with 1 and 2 at 14% if the 4th worst record only belongs to one team the odds drop to 12.5%. The same thing happens with pick 2, 3 and 4. Equal odds for teams with the worst, second worst and third worst records and a small drop off at the fourth worst record followed by bigger drop offs the better the record. It was fucking stupid that we started DA in those games against Charlotte and Washington. We had a clear path to the third worst record which is equal to the first and second worst for the lotto. The link below explains things... usually you could go to tankathon's pick odds but they are currently showing what things will be like if we remain tied with San Antonio.

those wins against Atlanta, Raptors OT, Charlotte and Memphis twice in a row were lottery killers
 
scoot just needs to stop shooting and focus on assisting, hopefully without turnovers and then he would have a superb game

dont fuck it up by shooting & missing
You posted this when he was 6-6 from 3?
Just stop shooting?
 
How to say you're a hater without saying you're a hater.
nothing to do with busterson, its idiotic to call it a "poster"

poster is when you dunk over someone, not when you dunk next to someone, even if that someone goes for the block

yes, not to worsen his fg %, which is exactly what he did by missing next three shots

luckily he didnt get back in, he wouldve missed more surely

hate started flowing through me when that prick asked for the trade and it turned out we drafted a bust, whats not to hate about that little prick

Don’t forget the Lady Panda was in the house flipping bowls on her head on a unicycle!

Tell me when a player plays a game worried about his FG%?
This is quite possibly the worst take I’ve read on this board? That’s saying something.

thats exactly the problem, they dont care and what is even worse, head coaches enable them to do that shit

scoot is having terrible season and it wouldve been amazing to have a superb game for a change, but he made sure to ruin the overall impression cause hes brainless idiot

its different mentality, people in us see bball one way, people in europe see bball the other way (players in europe are not allowed to chuck at will, even the best players, even if theyre having a great game, theyre not allowed to take too many shots)

So after posting quite possibly the stupidest take I’ve ever read you actually double down and make another even worse post and set a record for clownliness!

When you are in a hole stop digging dude.

since you ask for it, ill tell you that americans really shouldnt be the ones to talk about clownliness

i wouldnt expect you to understand it either and id be shocked if you could name all continents
 
Scoot is a Brainless idiot? Should really just ban this guy. Adds nothing to the forum but hate and hate speech
 
Henderson played terrific. Unfortunately he got a hip pointer and missed the 4th qtr
Jesus, that's the story of his rookie year: looks shit, starts to look good, gets injured, return to beginning

This year seems different compared to most. I mean a few months ago a lot of us didn't think we could get a SF like Williams or Risacher unless we moved up to the top 3. Now some mocks have other players moving passed them. I guess it comes down to Sarr and if he is superior to the others.

How do you look at a poster’s body of work and tell they have NEVER stepped on a basketball court in their lives without saying as much! Fucking this place…..

Is Scoot the “prick” in this post?

How has this man/woman got THIS far in life!!?? Amazing!
 
Sad that naming the continents is a brute force showing of intellectual prowess for some. I cannot think of more useless, subjective “knowledge” than naming the continents. But hey to some it is clearly a big deal.

Also a dumb question since different areas in the world have disparate qualifications on the definition of continent; ie., the USA teaches a 7 continent construct, certain European nations teach a 6 continent notion, and there are even 5 and 4 continent models taught.

Besides, it's dead easy: Pangea. There, done. (You didn't specify WHEN.)
