[THE HCP]

Amazing colors and shot!

Thanks FAMS! I just shoot what I see.

 

[Dozer]

It is game day once again! Let’s get this one!

 

[wizenheimer]

Thanks FAMS! I just eat what I see.

FTFY

 

[KingSpeed]

How much do we need to win by to get Wild Card?

 

[KingSpeed]

I looked it up. If we win by 28, we’re in.

edit: Spurs/Suns game still in play

 

[MickZagger]

Oh god this court is awful

 

[Dozer]

Game time! We can win this one.
Go Blazers!

 

[MickZagger]

Zubac traveled 3 times on that post move

 

[Dozer]

I looked it up. If we win by 28, we’re in.

edit: Spurs/Suns game still in play

That will be tough.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Crazy to think that Norman Powell would be by far the best guard on our roster and on a very reasonable contract.

We gave him up for Eric Bledsoe and Didi... Who are both STILL on our salary cap today.

What a stupid trade.

Yeah, Powell was one of my favorites.

I thought it was such a stupid trade at the time. It was really what made me have the opinion that Cronin is an awful GM

 

[Chris Craig]

Clips are going off

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Clippers announcers are hilarious...

"Here's Simons out there, if he is paid by the dribble he'd be a very rich man today"

Simons pounds the ball a dozen times and jacks up a stupid 3 pt heave.

 

[Foxx]

I don’t understand he was often mediocre as a blazer this is interesting

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Yeah I thought it was terrible at the time, crazy how many Blazer fans passionately argued that it was needed to clear Olshey move and then Cronin would have all this freedom to build a winner.

What has Cronin done with that Clippers salary relief? Given our horrible contracts to Ant, Grant, Nurk, max Ayton, paid Thybulle.

Then we had the 3rd worst record in the league while being in the luxury tax so had to give up a lottery pick to dump Brogdon.

 

[Quatro44]

Deni hurt now?

 

[Chris Craig]

Deni hurt shit

 

[Chris Craig]

Why can't they show replays

 

[B-Roy]

Looks like he rolled an ankle

 

[SharpesTriumph]

I don’t understand he was often mediocre as a blazer this is interesting

I always liked Powell game when he played here. It wasn't his idea to have him be primarily a forward with 3 other horrible defensive short guards in Dame CJ and Ant. Insane to think that was our actual roster.

Get rid of all those tiny PG and have Powell in a lineup with Banton/Sharpe/Camara/Deni type of players and this team would be way more enjoyable.

Instead we have Didi still on our cap and horrible overpaid deals to worthless vets like Ant/Ayton/Thybulle.

 

[Quatro44]

Well Deni didn’t go out, then hits three and gets a steal after. Nice

Yup!

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Blazers 5-5 last 10 games... Wow

We have the 27th ranked offense

Clippers broadcast has way better stats.

We had Powell playing the 3 next to Lillard and Simons with Covington at the 4 at the time. It was an awful idea.

 

[Quatro44]

Deni!!!
