Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #34 - BLAZERS @ BUCKS - JAN 4, 2025 - SAT - 5:00 PM - CHARGE - KUNP - BLAZERVISION

[illmatic99]

did they take away a milwaukee 3?

 

[KingSpeed]

Future hall of famers being overrated is a list of 0.

Being a future HOFer is an example of him being overrated. What did the headline say in the OKC paper? Mr Unreliable?

 

[Ripcity4life77]

I am with King on Scoot -- has he been perfect no but for the most part he has played under control and made good decisions.

 

[MickZagger]

I still can’t believe Ayton was the best we could get for Lillard. And no I don’t believe the premise that Cronin knew Camara would be as valuable as he is, because he would’ve just drafted him.

 

[MickZagger]

Unselfish by Advija

HOF looks at the totality of career and impact on the game.

 

[KingSpeed]

Suns 12th in the West

 

[illmatic99]

that fadeaway bank shot by shaedon was special. sick hangtime

 

[illmatic99]

I still can’t believe Ayton was the best we could get for Lillard. And no I don’t believe the premise that Cronin knew Camara would be as valuable as he is, because he would’ve just drafted him.

well you can count deni in that calculation too.

deni + camara + 2 firsts + whatever we end up getting for rob is OK. ayton notwithstanding

Exactly. This 15-18 record his team has right now should have equal weight to his MVP award.

 

[B-Roy]

Ayton chews his teammates out when they make a defensive mistake but does nothing on defense himself

 

[KingSpeed]

We got Jrue for Dame too.

 

[Strenuus]

Exactly. This 15-18 record his team has right now should have equal weight to his MVP award.

I know YOU don't believe that as much as I don't believe that, so here we are.

 

[MickZagger]

Holy shit Advija crossed him up hard.

 

[KingSpeed]

Avdija=Giannis?

 

[illmatic99]

0 lift for clingan.

 

[KingSpeed]

I know YOU don't believe that as much as I don't believe that, so here we are.

I absolutely believe this season counts against his legacy. Suns had the best record in the NBA so the next season, he demanded a trade there. Now they’re 15-18.

 

[MickZagger]

well you can count deni in that calculation too.

deni + camara + 2 firsts + whatever we end up getting for rob is OK. ayton notwithstanding

Yeah I mean we’ll probably be able to calculate the moving parts out for years.

The crux of the original trade was garbage. Looks less garbage with the Camara throw in. Cronin got lucky on that.

 

[Quatro44]

Ayton needs to be gone, would rather have a vet big teach Clingan.

 

[KingSpeed]

Heat Culture getting blown out by Utah at home.

 

[B-Roy]

Clingan hasn’t looked the same since the injury. Visibly slower, can’t jump even more.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Second very costly turnover by Deni.

 

[illmatic99]

shaedon needs to recognize his shot isn't going in and take a few steps in. theyre still respecting his shot -- a simple pump fake is all he needs

 

[illmatic99]

Clingan hasn’t looked the same since the injury. Visibly slower, can’t jump even more.

i hope its just conditioning and not a more serious injury but he looks awful

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I am with King on Scoot -- has he been perfect no but for the most part he has played under control and made good decisions.

I'm hoping for more from him than that.

 

[MickZagger]

Advija might be my favorite Blazer in a long time. He has crafty Drazen Petrovic vibes.

 

[B-Roy]

i hope its just conditioning and not a more serious injury but he looks awful

I mean he for sure moved better before the injury. The giant knee brace isn’t inspiring more confidence.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Ayton chews his teammates out when they make a defensive mistake but does nothing on defense himself

I can't tell for sure, but some times it looks like he is blaming them for his mistakes.

 

[Strenuus]

I absolutely believe this season counts against his legacy. Suns had the best record in the NBA so the next season, he demanded a trade there. Now they’re 15-18.

Again, you don't believe that because it's not based on any common sense, and you do know that. But I appreciate the reparte

 

[B-Roy]

I can't tell for sure, but some times it looks like he is blaming them for his mistakes.

He routinely misses help assignments, so probably.
